Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers spacious and comfortable rooms with a good heating system and nice toiletries. The staff are a bit self-centered but somewhat helpful. The location is central with some noise issues. The dining experience includes succulent steaks. The hotel has satisfactory facilities.
The hotel is situated in a good location, and although the rooms were small and a bit noisy due to the nearby exhaust fans, they are well-suited for couples. The service was a mix of self-centered attitudes and very helpful and friendly encounters. The dining options were available at the venue, and in general, the hotel is in a lovely location with sweeping sea views.
The hotel offers mixed experiences with cozy and well-designed rooms but lacks in accommodating service. The location is described as both beautiful and noisy due to its proximity to exhaust fans. Dining options are available at the venue, and the facilities seem satisfactory.
The hotel's location abutting a function room with an oblique view of the bay and pier is beautiful, and the rooms, despite feeling a little small, are not cramped. The service was warm and cheery except for one staff member who was not very welcoming. The dining experience is available at the venue but could be improved further. The facilities are adequate but lack some essential amenities. The price may not fully reflect the overall value for money due to noise from the bar downstairs and the lack of wifi and views from the rooms.
The hotel offers larger rooms than expected from the website photos, equipped with nice toiletries and a comfy bed, although located in a busy public environment. The communal showers were clean, but the room felt stuffy and basic with just a bed and sink.
