Reviews and Ratings
The hotel rooms were very comfortable and tastefully decorated, though not serviced daily due to staff shortages, requiring guests to get toiletries and fresh towels. The rooms felt a bit smaller than expected, but the proximity to the show venue was convenient.
The hotel has nice rooms but could be noisy due to parties nearby. The service is clean and tidy but can be tight on certain amenities. The location is great for shopping and beach activities. The dining experience is excellent with a wide variety of options. Overall, a convenient stay with some drawbacks to consider.
I had a comfortable stay with a nice view and balcony in the room, although there were some missing amenities like a minibar, magazines, and toothbrush. It was close to the lifts, making it noisy at times from partying guests and lift shaft sounds.
The hotel was amazing and well worth the extra money, with comfortable and well-appointed rooms that included breakfast, in-house movies, and a mini bar credit. The service was welcoming and friendly, although there were some short interactions around the pool area. The location was great, perfect for enjoying drinks from the bar and walking to favorite shopping centers and beaches. The dining experience was fantastic with fresh food options. The facilities were top-notch overall.
The hotel had a mix of great and not-so-great features. The rooms were quite hot but had a super comfortable bed. The service was top-notch but not consistently friendly across all staff. The location was excellent for me but surrounded by construction. The dining options were good but with some limitations. Despite some flaws, my stay was still enjoyable overall.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms were spacious, but unfortunately, they were not serviced properly, with torn bed sheets and a mediocre breakfast experience. On the bright side, having access to the exclusive lounge was a real treat with complimentary drinks and snacks available.
The hotel is centrally located, making it easy to travel around with shops, cafes, restaurants, and the beach within walking distance. The modern rooms are vibrant and comfortable with one guest even bringing a pillow down to the front desk to purchase and take home. However, construction near the casino has led to some inconvenience with screws left around.
The hotel offers stunning panoramic views of the coast, but it was quite noisy due to rowdy guests and lift shaft sounds. Unfortunately, the room wasn't ready for check-in by 3 pm. The reception area and rooms were modern but lacked soundproofing.
The hotel had very congested rooms that were posh and had good amenities, except for the coffee from the machines in the gaming room. The service was wonderful, providing quick and easy check-in/out and even a birthday surprise in our room. The location was excellent, although entering and exiting the car park was time-consuming. The dining experience was disappointing, but the Thai dishes were redeeming. Overall, a mixed experience with some positives and negatives.
The hotel has modern rooms with cool features like auto blinds and push button lights, though the service was a bit lacking at times. The location is excellent near the beach and Pacific Fair shopping center but dining options were a bit slow. Overall, a convenient stay with some room for improvement.
The hotel offers a mixed experience with some highlights like exceptional service but also drawbacks such as slow responses to queries and noisy areas. Rooms are comfortable but have some inconveniences. The dining options are good, especially for families, but may be limited in some sections.
