Fantastic place to say very new and great facilities. The rooftop pool is a little small considering the size of the hotel and the beds are a little bit hard but other than that I had a great time.

Liked: Staff & service
Staff was great. Disappointed with the : For one week stay they didn't change the sheets. For Breakfasts: every morning was empty we have to wait long time for food to arrive. If the hotel provides the Breakfasts for everyone who's staying in the hotel they should know exactly how many people are there and arrange property for food,staff chef's . One of the Coffe machine was broken from the first day we have arrived and still was out of order when we left.

Liked: Staff & service
Generally it was ok The breakfast was average. It would be nice to have some options like ham and cheese and although we stayed 5 days we didn't manage to get a coffee during breakfast because there was only one machine working and many people waiting! The cleaning of the room wasn't the best as the bathroom was not really cleaned properly! Otherwise itvwas ok !

Beautiful property excellent stay
This property is very clean and looks new. The parking is tricky and limited but we added a space to our bill and we always had one. The pool on the 8th floor is very nice. The breakfast is excellent and a full buffet. We would definitely stay here again and recommend it to everyone.

The staff were always helpful, polite and friendly. The amenities were great with a pool, fitness room and happy hour. Our room was serviced daily. It was a short walk to the shops, public transport and the beach and river. A beautiful, well looked after hotel with breakfast included located close to everything. What more could you want?

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Very centrally located hotel that is close by to both restaurants and shopping. Parking facilities were also excellent and easy to use. Room was a bit small for a family and almost no shelf space for storage. Also, the complimentary breakfast is good but has limited options. Staff were always very friendly and helpful with the premises being very clean always. Would highly recommend for a short stay.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here, staff were so friendly, rooms were clean, spacious and cozy at the same time, bathroom concept is smart with the door doubling up as the shower screen/door. Loved the addition of the single lounge that is part of the bedhead and the dining area. Overall highly recommend if you want a quiet, yet central accommodation.
