Guest Ratings & Reviews
My stay at the hotel was overall pleasant. The rooms were nice and had plenty of hot water, but the construction noise and generator nearby were a bit bothersome. The service was a mix of excellent and rude encounters. The location was great, but there were some lingering cooking smells. The dining options were satisfactory but could be more varied. However, the hotel facilities were good.
I had a wonderful stay at the hotel. The rooms were not only spacious but also offered a nice pool view, making it a delightful experience. The food was fresh and delicious, adding to the overall enjoyment. However, the dining options were quite expensive.
The hotel offers spacious and clean rooms with live music/singers nightly, but the location requires a long walk and climbing of four staircases, which can be very inconvenient. The food is good, and the reception service is commendable, although the rooms are described as tired and old-fashioned.
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were exceptionally clean and comfortable, but the location required a bit of a trek and climbing staircases. The food was good, and the reception service was welcoming.
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. While the rooms were small and impractical, the service was exceptional, especially at the dining areas and from the staff at the Flame Tree Restaurant and Bar. The location was convenient for various activities, although the Wi-Fi was suboptimal. The dining options catered to all needs, but the time consumed for breakfast was a downside.
My stay at the hotel was amazing. The rooms were cozy and beautifully neat, offering everything I needed. The service was exceptional, with staff going above and beyond to make my stay pleasant. The location was ideal for both business trips and family stays. The dining experience was simply superb, with delicious meals. The facilities were top-notch, making my stay even more enjoyable.
