Poor food selection at dinner. Breakfast very basic. Bread dry and basic. Very uncomfortable chairs and drab dining area pillows too hard to be comfortable. Separate parking fee.

Incredibly clean, nice rooms, and pretty good breakfast!
Pros:

Cleanliness was 10/10, whoever is cleaning the rooms needs a raise because it was SPARKLING every single day. They topped up on all amenities, tea and cookies too!

Breakfast was great, fresh each morning with plenty of choice - maybe some more vegetarian hot food options? But still pretty good regardless.

Lounge area was very pretty and comfy, bar staff also very friendly!

Cons:

Only one thing i wish was different was the gym equipment, some dumbbells would’ve made it a lot more useful for me personally

Another fantastic stay at The Waterfront
Pros:

Another fantastic trip to The Waterfront. Cannot fault the reception staff as well as the bar and restaurant staff. All were very friendly and helpful. The evening meal - braised beef was cooked to perfection. Looking forward to the next trip in July.
