We highly recommend Palmerston Tower. It had everything we needed and was very spacious inside. It’s only minutes away from everything that we did in the GC and was exceptionally clean and tidy. The managers were lovely and were available whenever we needed them. The kids loved the spa, and even the pool was heated.
