It was a very good stay but it is gradually deteriorating. For a 5 star, it needs an upgrade. Service was good.

Good times at the Wheatbaker.
An amazing hotel. The check-in process could be better and faster but after that, it was relatively smooth. Also, important, factor in a couple of hundred dollars for the "deposit" so you can use the restaurant without having to pay each time.

We stayed here for the first time in 2019 and was absolutely impressed by its location, service, appearance and amenities. We decided to stay here again based on prior stay. We were so disappointed to see that while services and amenities had been maintained, there had been no maintenance. There were signs of wear and tear in the bathroom that needed regrouting, the walls that need repainting and carpeting that needs changing. Other than that, which I know is very picky, the staff was absolutely amazing. The breakfast buffet every morning was not to be missed! And the location and security can’t be better!

I stayed at the Wheatbaker for 3 weeks in August this year with my son, mainly for a business trip. Positives - polite and attentive staff - great, well-maintained decor and superb facilities overall - fantastic gym - good covid-compliant hygiene/other covid-related measures - delicious food - great onsite gym - wonderful poolside setting for business meetings - a well-managed business centre - very comfortable bedroom Negatives - Problems with wifi on one crucial evening when I was due to dial onto a board meeting online. This caused untold stress as I wasn't sure if the wifi issue would be resolved in time for the meeting - during the 2nd week of our stay, I received a call from reception suggesting that I make a part payment on my room extras bill. I have never had this happen at any hotel I have stayed in and found this incredibly insulting - theft: some cash and an ipod were stolen from our bedroom. I have never had anything stolen from a hotel in all the years that I have travelled globally both for work and leisure. I reported the theft to management who were most apologetic and investigated after we left the hotel and returned to the UK. I was then told that I would be refunded the full cost of the lost ipod provided I gave the hotel proof of purchase and my bank details. I provided this information and, despite chasing, I am yet to be refunded by the hotel. This, more than anything, is what makes me rate the hotel so low for staff and service (terrible).
