This place was quick and the exchange rate was good (26.66 to the Euro
a couple days back). If you are at the Intercontinental then this
place is a good bet.

I had a horrible experience at the Citibank ATM. I had a Citibank card
and though being a customer I could get a good rate. I got a 10%
markup. So be sure if you are using your home crad. So much for
avoiding the travelex counters at the airport.

Thanks
