Staff could not do enough for you and very courteous.

Allan Australia

Loved the location to my business venue. The view was fabulous. No breakfast included. I didn't use the WiFi but very happy it was available. Didn't use the tv either, but happy it was available. I would recommend the hotel and probably stay again another time.

We stayed in room 2719. Very quiet and comfortable. Great king size bed with good linen and a feather down dooner. Very clean all around. Nice 50 inch tv with great picture. Nice adjustible aircon. Great service with easy check in and check out. We did not use any of the other facilities so we cannot comment on them. Nice touch with the Nespresso coffee machine and quality teas. Bathroom is very nicely laid out with quality shampoos/soaps.etc provided.
