all the staff were friendly and very professional
the bar service and restaurant were excellent and the breakfast above average and the best we have experienced during our travels
the quality of the mattress could be improved, it was far too soft and rolled towards the middle
Ev charging is a huge plus! The breakfast was also great given the price point. Our whole stay was really great considering the price point too.
The hallways were a little outated but this is more than forgiven for.
Clean, comfortable, modern, excellent facilities and very well priced
I come back often when I need some zen time and it’s so worth it because the price is great, Staff are lovely, room is always clean and spacey, food is great and big screen TV with streaming
Is easy to use, and super smooth check in and out.
The only complaint I could make is last time I stayed, the bed was too soft and we kept rolling into each other but the beds are usually very comfortable and so are the pillows ☺️
Large, comfortable rooms and helpful staff. Lots of options at breakfast.
Location staff and food
Everything!
I paid $250 for the room but on check in I noticed the price of the room was listed as $150.
Overall, I had a good stay and the hotel did most things well. The room was a good size, the shower was good, and the balcony was a nice bonus — it was great being able to sit outside with a coffee and watch the birds flying around. The facilities were all good, and the reception team were excellent. They were young, but clearly well trained, sharp, and professional, which stood out.
The bed wasn’t the best, but it did the job for one night, especially after a long day of travel. My only real room complaint was the desk. I had some work to do during the trip, and the desk felt very low and more suited to a child than an adult. I’m only around 5’8”, so not especially tall, but I still found it uncomfortable to work at for more than an hour or two. Not a deal breaker, but something that could be improved.
The restaurant was a bit hit and miss. The steak had very good flavour, though I asked for medium rare and it came out closer to rare. The pepper sauce was excellent, but the sides were inconsistent. The mash was bland and under-seasoned, the carrots were well seasoned, and the broccolini seemed unseasoned. The cornbread was disappointing — more crumbly and cake-like than expected, and the butter was rock hard rather than softened.
The menu itself felt a little confused in places. There were some unusual combinations, such as hoisin scallops, that made it feel like the kitchen was trying to be creative, but perhaps without enough restraint or focus. There is clearly some talent there, especially with the steak and sauce, but the menu would benefit from picking a clearer direction and executing it consistently rather than trying to be too clever.
Breakfast was much better and mostly hit the mark. The sausages were very nice, and the bacon, juices, and coffee were all good. The only letdown was the danishes, which tasted like they were not freshly baked that morning.
Overall, I’d happily say the hotel side of the stay was solid.
With a slightly better bed, a more practical work desk, and a more focused food offering, this could be a really strong stay.
Good location for what we needed, overnighter
Away from busy areas. Lovely room with balcony
Restaurant not open as was Sunday night BUT room service and food excellent
Would definitely recommend a stay
Bed was comfortable, close to shopping centers
Gave us a cot without a mattress, 2 towels when there was 3 of us, bathroom smelled gross
Very friendly staff. Good breakfast. Comfy room and bed. Nice view.
My room was sooo beautiful, the staff are absolutely fantastic and the restaurant Babbingtons is just delicious. Coming back in June and Cannot wait.
There isn’t anything I can say because everything is brilliant
Loved how friendly the staff were and the rooms are just so comfortable and cute.
The bathroom needed to be demolded and some of the tiles were cracked at the grout and the drain was broken unfortunately
