Really enjoyed our stay. The hotel is in a great position and we had a marina view room. There was an over the bath shower in our room which was awkward to get in and out of. Beds were comfortable. Pool area was well laid out, plenty of loungers but is definitely in need of a refresh

Everyone at the hotel went out of their way to be pleasant and helpful. We had an excellent room which we had upgraded when offered to bid for it. The view was spectacular and we enjoyed the activity of the harbour. Access to the hospitality lounge made life easier for breakfast and drinks and canapes later in the day. Car parking was taken care of by valet parking. An easy hotel to stay in. There was nothing we disliked.
