We stayed in room 479 - avoid this at all costs if you like peace and quiet. Outside the room (& lots of neighbouring rooms), is the hotel’s air-conditioning outlet which makes a constant, relentless loud noise. It was like trying to sleep next to the Niagara Falls. We’ve just checked out and are now enjoying the sound of silence away from the hotel (room 479).

Booked superior room with pool view. My room was in the corner, and you could just see the pool, but view largely blocked by enormous tree. Balcony was very restricted - smallest in hotel and just about room to stand, so not really for sitting out. VIP status not recognised at all and the complimentary drinks for 2 that were supposed to be part of my package were never offered. Breakfast has a good variety, although no eggs to order (eg fried or poached) and other hot items were generally luke warm at best

Five star service! (I didn't give a rating for breakfast as I didn't have breakfast) Wonderful to have the concierge open 24 hours. Lovely, friendly staff. The room was just lovely. Big, comfy bed. Immaculate bathroom. Gorgeous big balcony. The only thing I missed out on was a cup of tea! I had no idea the tea/ coffee/ bar facilities were tucked behind a sliding door cupboard which I never thought to open, as I thought it was a clothes cupboard! Maybe there could be some signage to make things clearer? Overall, I'd love to visit again. Thank you!

Disliked: Amenities
I had high expectations for the area and for the hotel it seemed dated my room had a weird smell in the hallway, smelled like oil paint drying to the point where it sort of gave me a headache. I have to say that when I went to the front desk to say anything, they were very nice about it. I’m not sure they were able to address it and another comment that maybe had nothing to do with the hotel, but just the area at times seemed sketchy, but I don’t know if that’s the hotel’s fault obviously
