Guest Ratings & Reviews
I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at the hotel. The location was superb, with easy access to various attractions and a lovely view. The rooms were comfortable, but the dining experience left something to be desired. The service was a mix of excellence at reception and some disorganization with the restaurant staff. However, the overall experience was positive with great facilities.
The hotel offers stunning views and comfortable rooms, but the unorganized restaurant service is a downside. The location is central and convenient, ideal for exploring nearby attractions.
I checked into this hotel with high hopes and while it has its perks, there are also some downsides. The location is superb, near the waterfront and within a short driving distance to many attractions, making it quite relaxing. The service was a mixed bag: some aspects like the amazing room service stood out, but there were issues with the unorganized restaurant staff. The dining options, though limited, were done well. Overall, a decent stay with room for improvement.
The hotel offers a breathtaking view of the waterfront and cozy rooms with both double and single beds. I found the service to be exceptional with a few hiccups at the restaurant. The location is ideal for quick mall trips and exploring the city center. The dining options were satisfying, although they could offer more choices. The facilities were top-notch and overall, I felt it was a good value for the money.
I stayed at this hotel with my family and had a mixed experience. The service provided was top-notch, with exceptional room service and housekeeping, but the restaurant staff seemed disorganized and unhelpful. The location was splendid, near the waterfront and within a short drive to various tourist attractions. However, the dining options were limited, although well-prepared. The rooms were cozy, offering a great view, but the price could have been more competitive.
The hotel offers a peaceful stay with beautiful views and friendly staff. However, the dining experience could be improved with more options. The location is convenient with nearby attractions, but the service lacks organization at times.
