    Shower was a bit old and faulty, but it worked ok. TV in the bedroom kept switching itself off. Rooms need a bit of TLC.

    Great location for where we needed to be. Hotel comfortable and good breakfast.

    The general appearance of the hotel and rooms in particular were very tired with blown mirrors in the rooms and health club. The paint was marked on all the walls and repair jobs were poor at best. Carpet had bleach marks all over. The pool was fair but paint and tiles falling off everywhere with broken stairs just left on the side. The hotel looks very shabby for a five star experience.

    The staff were exceptional and very friendly. The smell of the communal areas was lovely with white company products throughout. The breakfast and bar areas were lovely with the breakfast itself being excellent. Bed was comfortable and location excellent.

    Don't be alarmed when you are into the reception with all the noise and chaos. The reception area is under current maintenance. After you leave reception, I hope you have a stay just as great as I did!

    We stayed for my birthday, so Selim and the team made a great effort to make everything special. I can't thank the team enough. Everything was great!

    A little tired in parts which the renovation will address but very small details which did not detract from our lovely stay

    Fabulous location and wonderful staff along with generous sized quiet rooms and pool and gym/spa facilities .. the hotel is embarking now on a renovation that will bring it back up to meet the beautiful architecture inside. Loved our stay

    There was a few minor issues such as on the left hand side of the bed there was no sockets for charging a phone. I like to sit at a mirror to do my makeup, which I could not do. Due to our room having a connecting door, you can hear everything from the room next door.

    We were impressed when we entered our room as I did tell the hotel that it was our anniversary. They decorated the room for us and then room service delivered us a bottle of prosecco and afters, which was a nice touch.

    The rooms get very cold they do not give you access to heat you have to call and ask.

    I like that’s it’s close to so much and also so decorative for the holidays. The staff was friendly.

    T V control did not work, I had to call for assistance, the guy found the battery in the control did not connect with the terminals, as one of the springs was faulty, fixed it with a bang on the floor. The main shower was faulty as you couldn't turn the temperature down hence it was on at it's hottest, which is very unsafe. There was marks on the controls which looked like someone had a pair of grips on it to fix it. Hence they most have known it was dangerous, but still rented the room out.

    Breakfast was excellent. Beds were very comfortable.
