Frommer's Review
The dependable yet stylish InterContinental lies behind a barrier of trees in a neighborhood of apartment houses and luxury hotels. Its high-ceilinged public rooms are magnificent, with terrazzo floors and giant abstract mural mosaics of multicolored stones and tiles. Former infamous celebrities such as the late British hellraiser-actor Oliver Reed, who (not always welcomingly) livened the place up in the '70s, have given way today to a more staid business-oriented clientele. Most of the accommodations have private balconies, traditional furniture, and generous living space with very large beds, often king size. Tiled bathrooms are well equipped with robes, phones, and tub/shower combos. Generous extras include coffeemakers, working desk areas, Wi-Fi, and rental movies.
Facilities:
3 restaurants; bar; health club; sauna; salon; room service; babysitting; laundry service; solarium

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
