Pros:

Beautiful hotel, but concerning experience with insect bites

The Dorsett Gold Coast is a beautiful hotel with gorgeous facilities, and I genuinely enjoyed my stay.

Unfortunately, after my stay, I noticed several extremely itchy bites on my arms, which raised concerns about possible insects or bed bugs in the room.

I contacted the hotel to report the issue and offered to provide photographic evidence. As a guest, this is naturally quite concerning, especially when staying at a hotel of this standard.

While I appreciated the hotel itself, this experience unfortunately affected my overall impression. I hope management takes the matter seriously, investigates the room thoroughly, and responds appropriately.
