The overall stay was nice, the staff was friendly, and helpful. Our first day there going to check in we got stuck on the elevator for about 5 minutes we pressed the help button and they immediately started working on the issue to get it back working and to get us off. The water pressure in the shower was low but once I called front desk they sent someone up to fix it and it worked fine the rest of the trip.

Great Stay with Room for Improvement We recently stayed at Estelar and overall, we were very happy with our experience. The location was perfect, and the amenities offered were fantastic. The staff were friendly and attentive, making us feel welcome throughout our stay. However, we did encounter an issue with the cleanliness of our room located on the 39th floor. It was not up to the standard we expected, with dirty floor (hair in bathroom area), bugs by minibar, and marks on shower glass and windows (as if not cleaned at all) soap scum on shower glass and several handprints on room window. I believe that addressing this aspect would greatly enhance the overall guest experience. I would recommend this hotel for its many positive features, but I hope they can improve their room cleanliness for future guests.

Esterlar was very nice. It’s close to airport and about a 10 to 20 minute ride to the Wall where most of the nightlife is at. Sky Bar was beautiful wish they had more to choose from Food wise alot of finger food. I would definitely stay here. You can book all your tours at Hotel that’s a plus and the pool was amazing. Beds were comfy. Shower didn’t have that much water pressure it got the job done.
