"Everything was first rate. Very friendly and professional staff. Helpful front desk staff. Very good meals. Excellent breakfast buffet. Presented my partner with sparkling wine and chocolate for her birthday. Excellent valet service...very clean rooms. I can't complain about anything from the hotel side at all."
"Beautiful room, extremely clean, excellent shuttle service, superior attentive staff including a bartender that knew everything about the local gin. People care about their customers. So refreshing!"
"Clean rooms and bathroom. Friendly staff. Nice rooftop swimming pool and a small but effective gym. Delicious breakfast with a variety of hot and cold options and choice of juices including freshly pressed.
Small issue. Asked for packed breakfast for last day, stating we are vegetarian and need lactose free milk. The breakfast box provided had cheese and meat in croissant and yoghurt, fruit and cookies. So pretty much had the fruit for last breakfast. Maybe some misunderstanding."
