The worst experience ever!
Pros:

Honestly speaking there' s nothing to like about this hotel

Cons:

This was the worst 3 nights experience ever, first & foremost the room was stuffy, the phone extension wasn't working, the air con kept dripping water nonstop, the bar fridge was dirty inside, the safe wasnt working, our bedding was not changed, even after making numerous complaints about the safe not working, NOTHING was done. Generally the hotel should not be a 4 star at all

I enjoyed my stay at The Grand Palace Hotel - but the shower was a real disappointment.
Pros:

The overall experience was fantastic. The visual appeal of the Grand Palace Hotel grabs your attention and doesn't disappoint once inside either. Luxurious, comfortable and conveniently situated. The rooms are large and welcoming with quality finishes. The breakfast was decent enough, but I did not like that there was no yogurt, and there was a very small variety of fruit. Good value for money I would say.

Cons:

The only thing at the Grand Palace Hotel that is NOT grand .... is the shower. When considering the size of the room, and the size of the bathroom - the shower is a massive disappointment. It is quite literally the smallest shower I have ever had to shower in. The hot water - which only got warm - only lasted a minute or two, the balance of my shower was with cold water. Considering the grandeur of the hotel, it is disappointing that there was no good coffee machine - but only instant coffee available.

Great for what we needed - Close to the airport, lovely staff, good breakfast!
Pros:

The staff were really friendly and helpful when we arrived. They booked us an airport shuttle as well for the following day. The breakfast was great!
The location was ideal as we were travelling to the airport the following day. Is also walking distance from a shopping mall which is ideal.
The room was spacious and the bed was very comfortable. It also had a balcony to sit out on and a nice view.

Cons:

The shower wasn't that warm and the pressure could have been better. Had to run the water for quite a while to get it to a temperature where it was warm enough to stand under.
