Amazing hotel with well appointed rooms. Very clean and modern. Lovely staff on reception and manager greeted us to check everything was ok. Had slight problem in restaurant which was sorted with a little arguing but otherwise food was excellent too. Nice location, easy to get uber or tuktuk

Really clean, modern hotel with a lovely roof top pool. We had a delicious buffet dinner on the Saturday night and were spoilt with a very talented violin player which made the evening special. There's parking under the building. The hotel has good city and sea views.

6/10 Good

The hotel itself was pretty nice. Nice terrace on the top floor with a nice view over the sea. Room was big and nice but the bed had some kind of protection under the sheets that was very plasticy and made so much noise as soon as you make any movement. Our BIG issue was that we were woken up at 05:30 in the morning by the hotel playing music in the hallways. I get it, it's nice to have some lounge music in the hallways but during the day, NOT from 05:30 in the morning!! And one of the speakers was just outside our room so it was heared very clearly in our room. I called 3 times to the reception over the course of 35 minutes about it, first 2 times they said yes we'll turn it off but nothing happened. When i called the third time and was pissed off due to disrupted sleep since 05:30, they finally turned it off at 06:20. So by this time the sleep is completely ruined. This is totally unacceptable, especially at a hotel in this price range, to pay this money to get some decent rest and be woken up that early for absolutely no reason. The breakfast was just ok but pricy for what you get.
