Beautiful property decorated to a high standard and well presented. Staff were very helpful and the spa was well worth a visit, great location with access to the City , shopping and attractions.
The most noteworthy is the location! It's very central to all the sights and quite buzzing area. We had a wonderful stay and the breakfast was just amazing. The staff is very polite and helpful. Would love to recommend to everyone looking for comfortable clean rooms and central location.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
For the price, the hotel did not stand up to other properties. Very little in the way of dining. The AC in our living room did not work. Maintainence came but didnt fixed it, left a fan insteas. Temperature was at the consistent 27 C our 3 day stay. Parking off site. Location of hotel was near points of interest and restaurants. Staff was helpful.
A lovely, clean, modern hotel. The room was very clean and comfortable. Breakfast options were vast and tasted great. The spa facilities were plentiful. The staff couldn’t be more helpful. Overall a fabulous hotel that we’d definitely stay in again.
Our room was at street level and as a result, quite noisy with people and traffic going by as well as workers in the alley operating loud machinery. Otherwise, the room was fine.
The spa was lovely and Shoua, the massage therapist was excellent. He was very strong and did a great, deep massage.

Very nice room & service. We did a joy the hot spa & pool.
The Spa wasnt available, but they gave out complimentary vouchers for the Thermae Spa across the road.
The room and the hotel was fabulous. The staff were very kind, and always ready to assist.
A quality hotel.
The spa was lovely and the room upgrade for my birthday was very appreciated. However, room service had limited choice and overpriced for the amount of food in the salmon salad.
Despite a problem with my room upgrade request being cancelled, I can confirm the staff, room, service and location was excellent
Stewart from Concierge was very helpful so a real attribute to the hotel.
Staff provided us with a lovely card and complimentary wine towards our 50th birthday. Made our stay very special, room was spotless and very comfortable, had a wonderful relaxing stay.
