The park in the front is beautiful but the hotel has a lot to work on. The check in is incredibly long and impractical if you're tired and you want to go to bed. The towels are extremely worn and the quilt cover was torn with a10 cm hole in it. Definitely far from the quality that I would expect for the stars in this hotel. The blinds in the room were broken and it was something you don't want to deal with if you spent a lot of time trying to check in in a tablet that is asking for too much information. The cherry in the top was that the safe didn't work either. So no, I would not recommend this hotel.

Absolutely wonderful Hotel and Staff. We will definitely be returning again and again whilst recommending to everyone we know. On arrival our room just needed the love package to be organised and the Check In gentleman at the front desk upgraded us to a Junior Suite and provided complimentary coffee whilst we waiting for a few short minutes. Every single member of staff should be praised for their kindness and attention to detail.

It would have been nice to have the place cleaned out daily, as we stayed for 3 nights and only had the place cleaned maybe once and even that service was not a full cleaning. Just got free towels that’s all. The service at front desk was good but hospitality staff was quite terrible.
