Lovely location but very overpriced. Stayed before but the prices went up this year. Hotel is gorgeous and I was happy with the service. Rooms immaculate and serviced daily.
The hotel's location is excellent, as it faces the old Harbour, and several restaurants, as well as shops are nearby.
The hotel serms a little dated, and is expensive.
The staff is very helpful.
Myvroom was very clean.
Fabulous stay, the room was lovely. Staff all friendly and helpful. Breakfast did you for the day, and if still hungry free scones and tea from 3 to 5. Will definately stay again
The rooms are very basic but clean but there is no generator so during load shedding which happens minimum of twice a day for 2hrs each time - there is no wifi, lights, aircon , elevators etc
