Beautiful hotel with amazing staff.
We were staying at the hotel for a special occasion and we were not disappointed. The staff at the hotel all gave impecable customer service which made our stay a memorable one. Tge hotel which opened its door in 1890 has been renovated over the years to give all the mod cons you would expect from a 5 star hotel. The room we had was extemely comfortable and well appointed. The hotel public rooms are stunning as are the grounds and pool area. Breakfast was a true experience and qe would not hesitate to return when we are next on the Island.

This is a high end property so was expecting high end service, the room wasn’t ready even though we were allowed to go in, not tea/coffee facilities or mini bar been updated. Other things only little things but forgot the lemon in our gin and tonic, the room service app that they expected you to use wasn’t working so phoned through the order but due to language differences one of the orders was wrong. Asked for some blankets which should have been in our room but weren’t , asked at reception but had to phone 3 hours later as they hadn’t arrived

Fabulous hotel
Fabulous hotel within the grounds of the very picturesque Dormas Park. Would have given it a full 5* rating had it not been for insufficient drawer space in the bedroom for a 7 night stay and the noise coming from an adjacent sports centre, school, and outdoor swimming baths on the north facing side of the hotel. This was particularly irritating at times when relaxing by the hotel swimming pool or on the balcony back in the room. The rooftop bar also got quite loud in the evenings and because our room was on the floor below, not far from the source, caused me to complain. The hotel dealt with the complaint very professionally and expeditiously by moving us to a quieter room which also turned out, to our surprise, to be a free upgrade. All of the staff we encountered were very courteous and customer focused which contributed to a very enjoyable stay despite the aforementioned downsides.

Nice hotel, a little chaotic…….
When we arrived at 3pm, the whole check in system seemed very long winded. And our room wasn’t ready. So we had to what another 15 minutes. To be fair, they did upgrade our room and gave us access to the rooftop pool and bar which is only available to all guests after 5.30pm The room itself was very nice. Big bed, lovely terrace and very spacious bathroom. A very restful nights sleep. Breakfast was included in our stay and was very chaotic. Waiting for a table, and then waiting a further 20 mins for coffee. Seemed like the staff were finding it difficult to cope. Only had one night here, it was enjoyable but a little marred by a couple of issues…..
