Mid week treat

Reviewed By Michelle V

the staff were ever so helpful when we found that our assigned room was too noisy, being on the corner . when we asked for a change they immediately gave us a room at the back (upstairs) which suited us much better. The facilities are great - we loved the hot pools and the lovely robes to wear to and from. Situated one block away from Tutanekai street, we went to the thursday night market for our dinner. great fun choosing what to have. Definitely a nice hotel to stay at.

Good location

Reviewed By 705annb

Overall a nice place. Problems on long weekend couldn’t check in till 4 pm not ideal when very tired. Did complimentary lunch as a gesture. Would have preferred room on time. Close to Eat street so good location. Staff generally very nice. Some could smile a little more. Room 27 don’t recommend as a door to building right outside the room so constant noise. Food was very nice.

We stayed there for 2 nights over the Labour weekend 2022. Firstly we arrived to find their off street valet parking had gone from 20 dollars last year to 45, (the hotel has only P180 parking outside it.) The room was not a $350 value room, the toilet was next to the bed area, no sky tv or netflix. We came back at 4pm from the pools to find our room was not made, no clean towels, had to go down to reception and complain to get towels, no one answered the phone. Overall it was an expensive Faulty Towers experience. (they temporarily lost my car keys too).
