More than what was required for our one night stay before moving on with our holiday. We found the room larger than the previous room.

Hotel is perfectly placed within the CBD to access everything that was required. Almost everything was within walking distance. Room was more than adequate and as we expected.

We didn't stay at Pandanus, we were transferred to the Esplanade
