Stayed for 3 nights and the room was good and the big bath was nice. Breakfast was great with lots of choice and the outside spa was perfect even in the rain. Our room had a door which joined to the neighbouring room and although it was locked, let noise through. Hotel staff were great and helpful

This breakfast is huge, cereals, toast, baked beans, egss, bacon, tomatoes and juice cheese and so on...It is unfortunate that it not a... More

Stayed here a few days... first impression was 'this place feels like an old hollywood psych ward' with its VERY LONG hallways which have a very eerie feeling at night. Apartment was quite comfortable with excellent view. The location is outstanding with amazing peaceful un-interrupted views from all angles...

We stayed for a Rotary Conference and had a wonderful visit. Great room right on the water and good facilities. Food was very good and staff very friendly when we checked in. Nothing too much trouble. It was a large conference and they coped very well with the numbers. Excellent Friday and Saturday night entertainment and cocktail food. Breakfast was... More
