Right on the river bank with lots of room for kids to play. Our room was large and bed comfortable. A couple of amenities missing on arrival (which was out of office hours) so a quick trip to the supermarket was required.

The receptionist was lovely. The room was fantastic. The view was fantastic. The only downside was the numerous groups of young couples with very loud kids everywhere. And loud surf skis. Nothing to do with hotel. Hotel was fantastic but I didn't enjoy having very young children screaming all day. Slamming doors and yelling. I must be getting old.
