Room 1961 - A Suite
A surprise when I opened the door. I found a living room. Well an upgrade to a suite was definitely a great treat from the Intercontinental Hotel, especially I am just a lowly frequent guest for IC hotel program.
There is a second full bathroom near the sofa in the living room. The sofa itself is a sofabed.
Well, the main bathroom is pretty small. Have the rain shower head though.

The Welcome Gift
Many tourists (European) were staying there last weekend. The check-in was fast, but when checking out, there was no special counter for checking out. Thus needed to wait in line. I give big points for handling my missing cellphone. I forgot when I left the table after breakfast.
Talking about breakfast, we were fortunate to come down to Zest restaurant in time around 8:15am. When we were done, the line was pretty long. Looking at the buffet breakfast, I must say the Intercontinental Park Lane London serves much better breakfast. Quality and service are lacking in this restaurant during our breakfast. Waiting too long to order when the place was not full yet.
(Suggestion: the maple syrup is much better served warm. )

W Lakeshore
Apology to Mr W and Ms W for my opinion here. The room reminds me of a motel that has been renovated with a modern minimalist style. No bath tub is uncool. The painted stucco for the ceiling do bring the motel feeling.
Compare to other SPG hotels in the US that I had stayed before, I don't see any character attached to it. Or else I am too old to be in the hip and happening place. Better pick Conrad Hotel.
