8.8/10 Excellent! (756 reviews)
This hotel is beginning to show it's age, and whilst it is still very good I felt it has waned from the previous time I stayed (last year).
It's still an excellent hotel - I like it because it's quiet, big, sporty and wide open. It's also on the beach so it's breezy which is great during the hot months.
Sadly, the room upgrade was pointless. BUT! The team at the Italian restaurant on the rooftop are FABULOUS. Really, the service at that hotel is second-to-none.
The price should be reduced to reflect the age of the hotel.
