This was my first stay at Horizon and I would definitely stay here again. The room was a good size, the bed comfy and it was very quiet. We dined at Masu and the food was phenomenal. There are a lot of good options for dining and entertainment very close by.

Perfect hotel.

This is a 5 star hotel in every way. Wonderful rooms, great restaurant for breakfast and dinner, and perfect location. As it’s directly across the road from the bus terminal you can make use of the Sky Shuttle. Whilst this wasn’t the most expensive hotel (approx £140 per night) it was certainly the best.

We’ve stayed here multiple times, great part of the city, plenty around to see and do in a short walk, rooms are modern and beautiful, we drink at the bar, order room service, staff is top notch, nothing negative, you can use the pool and fitness area at sky city hotel next door and adjoins to the casino, can do early check in and late checkout, leave your baggage till your flight, so many good things I can say here
