Pros:

The staff and doormen were excellent. For example, a staff member escorted me across the street to use an ATM safely. The breakfast was excellent with many choices and eggs made to order. The location is great in the central area with easy access to the waterfront as well.

Pros:

Everything was old and outdated. Pillows and bed quality was very poor. No mattress covers, sheets failed to cover mattress so you end up sleeping directly on filthy mattress. AC set to only run for a maximum so it turns off while sleeping, and you have to turn it on again 5 times per night. Very low level clientele staying at hotel. Would not return.

Endless views!!!!!!
Pros:

I had an amazing room 1603 with the best views of the mountain and city from both angles. The bed was nice and big and very comfortable. I was not too impressed with the shower, I had to hold it in my hand while showering.

Pros:

The room was spacious and very clean, so was the bathroom.
The bed was very comfortable.
We enjoyed cocktails in the lounge every evening. A very relaxed atmosphere and the cocktails were amazing.
The food was very enjoyable.Food and drinks were for a great price.
Big selection at the breakfast buffet.
The only things we didn't enjoy was the party noise from the streets until at least 1 am, and the air freshener they seem to puff into the air every few minutes in the lobby area. Waiting there for our friends or else was like torture to our senses.

Pros:

Wir buchten als letzte Unterkunft unserer Reise das Cresta Grand Hotel. Es war mitten im Stadtzentrum an der Long Street - dass es abends lauter wird, war uns bewusst. Das Hotel ist etwas in die Jahre gekommen. Der Fitnessbereich war nur mäßig gut ausgestattet. Das Frühstück hatte eine gute Auswahl, der Frühstücksbereich selbst hatte eine recht unruhige und ungemütliche Atmosphäre. Wir wollten zudem erst nach dem Frühstück den Zimmerservice erhalten. Leider kam dann jedoch gar kein Service mehr an dem Tag. Das Parken im hoteleigenen Parkhaus kostete pro Nacht 3,50 €, das Auto war mitten in der Stadt jedoch sicher untergebracht. Wir wählten das Hotel kurzfristig und aufgrund des vorhandenen Fitnessbereiches. Man hatte von dort aus eine gute Ausgangslage in die Stadt, weiterempfehlen würden wir es aber nicht mehr.

The biggest problem was the time it took for lifts to arrive for whatever reason.
