I have stayed at the Rand many times, previously called the Coral. Solid common spaces, rooms on par for pricing and breakfast is adequate for a hotel of these level. The only disappointment over the years has been the garbage smell in the lower level pool and gym area. Needs to be better vented as it is a serious negative.

Bad staff, AVOID BREAKFAST

The hotel reception staff are not welcoming the guests. They are silent and not friendly. Every time we go through the front desk - they do not even look at us, leave alone smile or talk to us. The breakfast is just terrible. The pastry are all old and not good. The live counter is removed much early than 10 am. The Bangladeshi waiters are rude and not at all helpful to us during breakfast. Except for the location of the hotel everything about this place is BAD.

Just ok

Location was good because of the Starbucks and market infront of the hotel. But I didn’t feel like the employees helped to make my stay better. Rooms where big. But they need to have more things or information for tourist.

Hotel with smoking smell and low water pressure.

I stayed for 5 days under smoking smell. It is 3-floor hotel. And you will smell it when you open a door or window. And tap water came out drop by drop. If you are non-smoker and shower-lover this hotel may not be yours.

Old style but very practical, worth the money

Hotel is rather old (rug, deco, air cond) but has great central location and extremely friendly staff. Any request was treated rapidly with a smile, women as phone operators felt great too. Rooms are very spacious.
