Will stay again! The staff was so lovely and thoughtful, we stayed here to get married and they truly appreciated how special that was. The room was huge, the hot water didn’t run out like many other wedding guest accommodations did. It was really cool having an outdoor kitchen and being able to walk across a pond to get into your apartment was so unique. We loved it. Plus the location you can’t beat. It’s at the end of the main street so it’s not super noisy with drunk tourists but still on the main street so you’re in walking distance to everything you need.

Great location in the heart of the esplanade, restaurants and only a five minute walk to the marina. Rooms and common areas look fresh and well maintained. Helpful reception staff. Dined at the rooftop bar which had a fantastic view but service didn’t quite meet the friendly and accommodating nature of colleagues at reception. Overall a terrific hotel and would stay again.
