The check-in staff and concierge made a 4-star hotel feel like a 5-star experience. Cannot fault. The hotel however requires some TLC. Our room must have been an ex-smoking room because it had that awful smell. The pool has a gym, pool and tennis court, oddly the website didn’t allude to any of these facilities.

We were well looked after. The front-of-house staff were friendly and helpful, our request for a high floor was listened to and we had a fabulous room overlooking the harbour during Vivid. The Ternary breakfast was awesome, we were offered and lovely glass of bubbles when on Level 1 and all-in-all, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay here.
