Total disappointment & overpriced. The staff eventually responded to my calls by moving us to another room away from a view of the junk area of pallets, broken equipment etc to one with a lovely view but the room was still outdated with chipped furnishings, mouldy bathroom and torn mesh sliding screens.

Worse hotel ever

Worse experience ever! Their reception is at Mercure which is about 1km away and the address on here is different. It took us 30 minutes to sort out the check in as we first went to the address on hotels.com and were then told to go to another address before a lady mentioned we need to check in at Mercure! If that wasn't enough, the ac didn't work well, it was 38C and the room was very hot. The hotel facility is dirty. We left within a few hours and didn't stay the night.

Great storm however……

My stay coincided with a large thunderstorm which caused a few issues (e.g. no tv reception, card payments down). Nothing that the hotel can do about that however the communication was non existent and the attitude of the staff in the restaurant wasn’t great.

Lovely space, spa bath in bathroom was great, outdoor area a bonus, couple of maintenance issues in room, toilet seat closing was deafening. Shower taps don’t turn off properly. Property nicely maintained. However pool & pool area needs extra TLC. Top row of tiles needs cleaning as depths marker tiles very dirty & hard to read. (Safety issue) Staff in restaurant were great.

The staff was amazing the customer service was amazing they are all so helpful and nice people, the whole place has it’s character about it, the room we stayed in (604) was uncomfortable to stay in because of the energy from spirts, it doesn’t show threw the day it’s mainly of a night, you hear sudden knocks suddenly things drop and there’s nothing there, I could go on and on but I highly recommend if you love your sleep and you want to enjoy your stay DO NOT stay in room 604! Overall it amazing! Thankyou harragins!
