We have stayed at the Argyle several times now. It is very comfortable and convenient to the airport. I would recommend this hotel without a doubt. They even have a new innovative wake up service. At 0500 the kitchen staff comes to work and blasts the sound system with motivational popular music. There is no way you will oversleep your alarm.

Decent and safe location for a layover ..thanks to AA cancelled flights. Clean and quiet -restful few hours of sleep
-Airport pickup could be made available via WhatsApp (instead of just hotel #) given the likelihood of international travelers w unscheduled /unexpected layovers ..although it was easy enough to locate staff upon landing.
-Finding a meal for those that are late arrivals/ early departures may need a bit of work - or say lobby coffee in early am . Nbd really but considering it’s an airport hotel , one would expect short stayers.
Would stay again .

The room was beautiful, very modern. Very clean. staff was very friendly. I felt extremely secure great service with the shuttle to and from the airport. Only reason I might hesitate depending on your situation. Is there's no privacy Once you step out of the shower, you step right into the area in front of the sink, so if there's two people or more trying to get ready at the same time, it's a little challenging.
other than that I loved it.

The hotel itself and the staff were very nice, the room was clean. The problem I experienced was the first room I was given was facing the road and the noise from the nightclub down the road was very loud. I spoke to reception and they very quickly moved me to another room, where it was quieter but there was still some base and noise from the club. If you are someone who really needs proper quiet to sleep, I wouldn’t recommend this place. If some background noise doesn’t bother you, the hotel is otherwise very nice.

Reservation was messed up by the hotel. Late arrival and late check out were requested and approved, and then lost internally so cleaning staff disturbed me repeatedly 2 hours after checking in at 5 AM. Staff are 'overly anxious' to serve... asking me more than 10 times during a 45 minute meal if I needed anything, was everything good, etc, etc. This is a very modern hotel that needs some 'maturity' in it's management and operations. I won't return.

Very disappointed that in spite of two sets of confirmation of understanding of our arrival at the airport the hotel failed to provide a transfer, and claimed no record of our request.
The bedroom aircon was ineffective, and although a technician improved slightly , it remained sub standard.
In reporting these problems to reception the response on both issues was cavalier.
It’s a shame because the hotel is generally an excellent facility.

Excellent airport hotel--perhaps the best airport hotel that I have stayed at. Modern and spotless rooms with comfortable beds, an excellent bathroom and shower. Good restaurant with very good Indian food. The transportation back and forth from the airport was much appreciated. The airport itself is poorly organized and when you exit the airport, you enter pandemonium. So having someone from the hotel pick you up is essential.

Coming back , needed to be at airport at 5am.
Shuttle choice 4am or 5 am .
Chose 4am so lost a precious hour of sleep at either end of the night.
When the hotel is so close, the shuttle should be more responsive and regular
