In brief

What works, what to weigh

+

Strengths

3 reasons to book
  • Rooftop pool with views — The outdoor swimming pool sits on the roof, offering a relaxing spot with a view over the city – a recurring highlight in guest feedback.
  • Consistently praised staff — Guests repeatedly mention friendly, efficient, and helpful service, from front desk to management, with several noting extra effort like booking restaurants.
  • Central location — The hotel is close to downtown and transport links, making it easy to reach business areas and attractions like AquaRio (about a 25-minute walk).

Worth weighing

3 to weigh
  • Facilities score lower than other categories — The facilities rating sits at 6.9 – below overall satisfaction – suggesting the gym, spa, or common areas might feel dated or limited compared to rooms and service.
  • Not directly in the centre — While close, the hotel is not right in the very heart of downtown – some guests note it's a short distance away, which may require a walk or transport.
  • Limited dining options — The dining rating is moderate, and while breakfast is praised, there’s no mention of a full restaurant menu beyond the bar and breakfast – could be a limitation for some.
