Recent reports conflict. Sources disagree about the setup here, which often means the hotel changed machines or that room types differ. The sources on each side are listed under “How we know”, so you can weigh them yourself.
What to bring
There is a coffee maker, but we have not pinned down the type
We have confirmed a coffee maker in the room but not which system it uses, so we cannot tell you what to buy for it. Something that works independently of the machine is the safer thing to pack.
- Specialty instant coffee or coffee bags, which work with hot water alone
- A collapsible pour-over cone and a few filters
Not sure? Ask the hotel
The quickest way to a definite answer is a two-line message to the property. Here is one you can paste into their contact form, an email, or a chat. If they tell you, we would love to hear it — use the form below.
