Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms, despite not being ready by 3 pm, offered a superb view of the harbor once we settled in, though they felt cluttered rather than spacious. The service was a bit hit and miss, from struggling to verify my colleagues' reservations to receiving a sweet greeting card with a treat outside our room but being given the wrong room initially. The location, while perfect for accessing downtown and with friendly staff, had some cleanliness issues that need addressing. The dining experience, though convenient with a simple breakfast drop-off, lacked variety. Overall, it was a stay with ups and downs.
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The room offered stunning views of the harbor and surrounding hills, but it looked a bit tired and could have been cleaner. The service was exceptional overall, with the staff going above and beyond, but the Front Desk staff could have been friendlier. The location was convenient, right on the waterfront with easy access to restaurants and shops, yet the area felt dark and uninviting at times. The dining experience left much to be desired with a lacking continental breakfast, but the homemade biscuits were a nice touch.
The hotel offers a sleek and modern room design with a great view of the harbour, but the musty smell was a downside for my allergies. The location is excellent for walking into town and enjoying nearby attractions.
The hotel offers a great view of the harbor and is conveniently located close to downtown activities. The rooms could use some updating and weren't as clean as expected. The service was friendly and old-fashioned. The location is superb, right on the waterfront with easy access to many restaurants and pubs. The dining options were limited but varied. Overall, a comfortable stay with a few minor drawbacks.
