What a surprisingly special stay!

We selected the hotel as it was near to where we would be working, but it was an unexpected surprise as we absolutely loved it. The location, room, food and service were all fab, and would highly recommend it. We can't wait to come back again!

This is not a 5 star hotel as advertised, 4 star at best. Hotel looks tired. Staff friendly and room decent size but lacked quality I would expect from 5 star hotel. Notes everywhere about no smoking and had to sign a disclaimer! Only provide 2 bottles of the room and yet another note to say any others would be chargeable. This is not a hotel I would recommend and I wouldn’t stay again.

Not a five star

The hotel states it is convenient which it definitely is not. The bed was awful and there were helicopters landing on heliport about 100M away all night. No lounge and no proper bar area.

Very nice

We stayed in emperor suite and whilst it was nice having the hot tub my personal feeling is it doesnt reflect the price its set at, the whole room could do with a makeover so it doesnt feel so dated, the helicopter pad right next door is very annoying which isnt the hotels fault but the sound does get annoying to listen too, the staff are all very friendly and welcoming I cant fault them at all, I would happily stay again but maybe not the emperor suite

Good value for money, not high end

The hotel is certainly not at its peak. It feels pretty tired and weirdly done out, they haven't really made the best of an amazing location. Staff were very nice and friendly, my room was big with a great bathroom and all very clean. For the price I paid it was a bargain but don't go expecting anything too swish.
