Le petit déjeuner n'est pas de bonne qualité : jus d'orange chimique et aucun jus de fruit naturel alors que nous sommes dans un pays tropical ! Omelette avec oeuf en poudre. Rien de naturel, pas à la hauteur du standing de l'hotel.

Convenient for the airport and comfortable place to stay
Pros:

The staff were lovely, friendly and efficient. Parking was easy and the rooms were comfortable.

Cons:

The menu in the restaurant was a little limited, particularly for those with dietary restrictions. The noise from the busy road could be heard in the rooms.
