I stayed here for 5 nights in March 2025. The staff were excellent, I got into my room early, which was great. The pool was being renovated but I was allowed into the G Gurney hotel nearby for access to the pool area. There is plenty to do and see along Gurney Drive. I highly recommend this hotel. Eamon

I choose this hotel because of their rooftop pool and sky bar, unfortunately when I check in, the hotel reception told me that both facilities is under construction. Very disappointed, I payed that much money but can’t enjoy the facilities, why no notification in their official website

Great location. Large rooms. Only downside is that the walls are thin so we could hear neighbours talk in their rooms.
