We arrived at 3.45pm, 45 mins after the check-in time. But was informed only 2 rooms of the 5 rooms we have booked was ready. The other 3 rooms were only ready at around 4.15 pm. Already thought the official checked in time was rather late as the standard checked in time for most hotel is 2.00 pm.

Good for the money. The only downside for me is the pillow. Perhaps hotel can invest on this to promote better sleep quality for the guests.

A very good hotel for what it is and cost.

Great lication, large rooms, fantastic Roof Bar and Revolving Restaurant. Could use a Hard Renovation in parts, or a Soft Renovation all over. However still well worth the stay and cost value. Need to work out more reasonable Happy Hours!

The staff were friendly and helpful and the hotel room had a great view of the bay. The bed was quite hard but the shower warmed up quickly and was easy to use. The walls were quite thin, we could hear the people's conversation next door to us. But the hotel room was nice and spacious which was good.

The Bayview is a good hotel, well located with decent dining options and friendly staff. The rooms are big and have everything you would need inside them. The hotel is just a little dated however and needs a bit of TLC. Overall would happily stay here again.

Don't trust the pictures they posted. Good location with service, but the hotel needs a lot of major updates. Moldy ceiling & peeling wall paint. AC starts leaking 4 am in the morning on the last night during the stay. I don't think I will stay here again unless there are major improvements.

The service and every staff member I interacted with were amazing, but unfortunately by room just hadn't had a good clean in a very long time. Mildew in the bathroom and crumbs under the bed, just not in a great condition.
