The building has a beautiful design and is in a GREAT location near both the old and new city areas. The room was very super clean and cozy. The poolside was nice and the gym and spa were relaxing and quiet. Room supplies were refreshed daily. I have ALREADY re-booked for New Year's Eve!!!

Really good Stay

clean condition delicious breakfast rooftop facilities helpful staff
I appreciated the super tidy condition everywhere. It was super clean. The breakfast was delicious and offered a good sunny space. The rooftop facilities were EXCELLENT, including the pool and bar. There was plenty of lounging space in both sun and shade, available if you booked a junior suite or above. The staff were helpful and kind, especially the concierge team.
The location was not as central as I expected, though buses were readily available.

Staff was very friendly, helpful, and willing everywhere in the hotel! Lots of goodwill and good training is self evident. The staff at night turned down the bed and dropped off chocolate it was sweet.
