Good room, great pool, awesome location. Breakfast wasn't great, room service cuts off at 8:45, lacking on the mini bar in terms of food, only choclate bars (Woolworths a short walk) Basic bar, nothing great and extremely pricey. Pool area tables a little untidy and not cleaned regularly. Would stay there again without paying for breakfast.

The property is nice enough but the fact that I paid for a expensive room and there was no hot water and there was a stain on the chair at the desk that looked like it had come from somebody’s crutch was quite of putting to say the least.

We were upgraded to a Executive suite which was a lovely surprise and the suite was amazing and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. However we thought it was penny pinching charging additional for parking. It would be better to have it all inclusive. Also the restaurant we would rate as 3.

Very comfortable beds. We were given a room which was right in the foyer (121) which felt weird and was quite noisy at all hours but did have a small water view and and pool view. There were lizards and spiders around which seemed like a normal occurrence to the staff. Lovely grounds but I would probably not stay there again as it’s out of town a bit.

The location was excellent, very close to everything and you can walk everywhere. The parking was so expensive at $25 per day which we thought should be included. The room was nice and clean and the buildin is in great shape with a lovely pool.

Hotel lives up to its “upmarket” billing and is very well maintained. Room allocated wasn’t the best…above the restaurant, below a function room so a bit noisy. Decent view but could only been seen while standing not while seated. Charging guests $15/day for parking is not really playing fair when paying $500/night for the room !
