Staff were lovely. Bed was super comfortable. The access to the hotel was poorly communicated. We thought the entry of the hotel was on the waterfront - easy to come and go. We had to walk up stairs which were horrific, especially with luggage (we didn’t know about the road) or we had to walk up and down a hill which was the equivalent of 7 floors. If we had known then we would have changed hotels to be honest. An email two days before explaining a road change what taxi/uber drivers didn’t follow was poor. Then finding the actual entry was difficult. We luckily saw a staff member who explained to us where to go. There was no signs except for on the entrance door. We had two spoons. That was all the cutlery. We understood there was no kitchen but a knife and fork would have been handy especially for the price of the room. View was lovely. Room was quiet.

The hotel location is very nice, right across from Oriental Bay and easy walk to downtown. The restaraunt doesn’t really seem to serve the purpose of food for guests. It is more like an upscale city restaraunt. This meant we always ate out.
