Absolutely fantastic hotel. Real attention to details and truly 5 star. Nothing was missing or impossible to arrange. Amazing food at all of the restaurant (we didn’t try the Indian though) and the staff was so friendly and service minded but without being intrusive- the best kind. Magesh at the pool & bar was fantastic.

The staff tried very hard to make our stay comfortable but I must say that the quality of food and the way they arranged the very late check in was not ideal . The executive lounge decor is very basic when sitting outside and dead plants on the patio doesn’t help the decor either .all I could say that I won’t go back because simply no matter how hard the staff try, if the management is not there to check to ensure of quality and organisation then there is nothing to be done. What they charge per room does not relate to the quality and is highly exaggerated .unless one asks, the management doesn’t really help and one have the feeling that they are only there for your money and don’t really care.
