Gorgeous stay
Pros:

Jamaica Palace Hotel is a truly gorgeous place to stay in the pearl of Portland. Even though it was developed in the 70s-80s, the property is well maintained with relatively modern rooms and beautiful gardens. The breakfast was included in our stay and we enjoyed the choice between Jamaican and continental breakfasts. We had a car so it was very convenient to get around to sights in Portland and while it rained, it was convenient to eat in the onsite restaurant with its beautiful artwork.

Cons:

For a parish where it rains the most in Jamaica, I was surprised by the lack of indoor activities made available at the hotel. It would be interesting if they offered some board games, and more communal spaces for guests other than the pool and lobby. Other than that, there were no suggestions for things to do in or around Portland or any tour information made available. I wonder about how the management treats the staff, they don't seem very motivated and service was inconsistent, sometimes they were friendly, sometimes we were served water and juice without asking and other times we waited ages and eventually had to ask.

Convenient, comfortable and clean
Pros:

Comfortable beds, clean rooms. There were frequent route taxis passing in front of the hotel. They are like public transport. This made it very easy for us to travel to the beaches and the town center. Big room size.

I'm vegan, and they ensured the breakfast was tailored for me.

Cons:

We needed to wait for 10mins for hot water after turning on the shower (in the end there was hot water though) .No gym. Checkout is 11am strict.
