Excellent hotel in great location.

Very comfortable hotel with excellent facilities in a central location. Recommend taking upgrade to executive floor if offered to you - well worth the extra. Staff very friendly and helpful. Good English spoken.

Hotel is excellent quality with luxurious rooms however the breakfast buffet was standard at best. We stayed on Executive floor and the happy hour food was below of that expected of a 5 star hotel. Hardly any food or variety and drinks were ordinary to none.
