We had lounge access with our booking however the hotel was very busy with a number of events. The manager in recognition upgraded our room and provided in room service. The following day the deputy manager helped me and my wife with a harbour cruise and provided a complimentary evening meal. The hotel made our stay so special and I thank the hotel manager and deputy manager for spending the time with us and helping to make our stay a great one.

Bed choice is no choice

This is the second time that I have stayed at the Radisson Blu and requested a twin room. Neither time have I actually received ed a twin room but rather a double. The first time i complained and we had to wait nearly 2 hrs for housekeeping to come round and separate out the beds, this time we didn't even bother to ask. If the hotel is going to offer double or twin then they should ensure that they provide what was requested. Very frustrating! Otherwise the hotel is beautifully furnished, comfortable beds and pillows, nice water pressure and great breakfast!
