Peaceful Luxury Retreat
My stay was wonderful, the staff were helpful and provided exemplary customer service.
The decor of the hotel and the apartment rooms is stunning, very luxurious.
This is truly a hidden gem, a peaceful luxury retreat.

Disappointing
Carpet in bedroom was dirty; a real no-no. Registering team were pretty useless and it took 20 minutes to book in and the same time to book out. The breakfast was outrageously expensive with poor selection for the price of £30 with NO service available

I was assigned a bedroom with a disabled wet room. The smell was dreadful and I raised this with the front desk the day after I arrived and asked to be moved. The man promised to get back to me by phone that afternoon, he didn’t. Expedia asked on the same day for feedback for the hotel which I shared saying the smell was making me feel sick still no action taken. It was clear the drain was not draining, the dirty water was coming up through tiles all over the floor and creating the damp smell. With no window to open the dirty water was creating the damp smell. Otherwise I was impressed but I did have a totally miserable stay.

Service - The hotel is understaffed so it takes an eon to get through to the front desk and long wait times if you go in person. I wanted to change my initial room because it was next to the elevator and too noisy for me. Staff and management told me the hotel was fully booked. Eventually I had my room changed but I later checked both Expedia and the hotel’s own website - plenty of free rooms were available for booking.
Room service - for the apartment rooms, if you are staying less than one week, you have to request housekeeping. Nevertheless at 3.40pm on my second day I requested my room was cleaned. At 9.30pm when I returned I discovered it had not been cleaned. It was eventually done after a second request by 10.15pm.
Noise - in my new room I heard hammering all afternoon. I mentioned this to reception and was told they would investigate but that there was no construction work in the hotel (this was a surprise to me as I literally bumped into a worksman with building materials in the lift. Anyway, later that evening (at 10pm) just as I was trying to get to sleep the hammering started again. I called reception and was told that the work was going on in the restaurant and that they would put a stop to it. The noise did stop. On Saturday afternoon as I was sitting foyer the hammering started again.
Room - tiny bathroom/no bath. Shower had very low pressure. Bizarre/uncomfortable furniture. No table or dining chairs despite having a kitchenette. Uncomfortable bed.

Good but room for improvement
In general my stay was very good, but a few things let it down.
- I stepped on a small bit of glass with bare feet on the first morning. Luckily it didn't cut me though.
- I had to request more English Breakfast tea about 5 times before I actually got any. I kept being told someone would bring it up in 10 minutes and they never came. Eventually I got some after calling again the next morning.
- It would be incredibly helpful to have instructions for the heating/cooling system as I kept trying to turn it down but it kept going up again!

The hotel professes to be high end, but the staff were disinterested and just seemed to be hanging around reception. It's been a few years since the Dao opened and they still haven't opened the entrance so you have to check in via the Dorsett. The staff don't make you feel welcome.
The room was spacious but showing a fair bit of wear and tear with chipped paint and a damp smelling bathroom.

Beautifully decorated and a two minute walk from the O2! The area is a tiny bit dodgy. There were a group of individuals sitting outside the building next door for most of the day who seemed to be on drugs and were covered in blood.
