South AfricaAll-in-all a good place, quality hotel with decent style. Breakfast is very decent. Location is good - in the middle of old city, good if you are up for touristy things. Fair value for money. A perfectly decent hotel - an upper-medium 4* experience
United KingdomGreat location, brilliant room (apart from its location within the complex), comfy sun beds, delicious choices at breakfast and all staff were helpful and friendly.
United KingdomOvation is great, lots of restaurants. Hotel facility great. Breakfast is fantastic.
USAThe staff did respond to my requests for an alternative room as well as getting us checked in earlier. Also, we tried the evening dinner buffet and it was exceptional.
United KingdomThe staff were very friendly & helpful in all departments. The hotel location is excellent being on the sea front, quiet, but very near the town & all the facilities. All the walking was flat which suited my husband on his mobility scooter. The Spa & indoor pool were very good too.
