O Monot Hotel

Comfy and nicely lit room

Plunge pool was a bit too cold

The location of the hotel is very good, it's within a walking distance to Hamra and the downtown area. The room was spacious and clean.

The breakfast was extremely poor, in terms of quality and quantity. For the first morning of our stay, the choice was really limited: stale grocery store bought bread, only orange juice, two choices of cereal (corn pops and cocoa puffs), a couple of local delicacies, some baked goods (which were excellent), some cheese and unappetising deli meat. We were not informed that we could order omelettes from the kitchen. After speaking to the hotel manager, for the other five mornings, the only addition was apple juice and one more cereal. Everything else stayed the same. The options were just too limited, so for the price, the breakfast is certainly not worth it. Housekeeping service: the hotel has a policy of only two bottles of water per day. We have never been to a five star hotel where there is a limit on the number of bottles the hotel provides when the tap water is undrinkable. One morning at 9am the staff knocked at our door despite the do not disturb sign being on, to ask if they could have the iron and board back. It seems that the hotel does not have enough irons for each room. On the whole, O Monot should not be part of the group of small luxury hotels. We've stayed at a couple from this group and they were in a different league.

the staff was wonderfully helpful, kind and informative during a tumultuous moment of mass protests in the city.
