"Really helpful and friendly staff. No gym - boo. The restaurant: simply the best food you will EVER have at a hotel of this level, and better than you will get at most 4+ star hotels too. Beef pizza, gyoza, club sandwich, goats cheese salad, draught beer. Just excellent. Very handy for the airport, bit of a drive into town. Rooms as expected for this level: everything worked, it was all clean. Highly recommend."

"Room was well equipped, well decorated and comfortable. The bed was of a good size, and again, very comfortable. TV was a bit of a mystery to work out with few English channels. A shame the front door to the room was shabby, urgently needed a repaint and didn't create an initial good impression. The reception staff were friendly, although upon leaving didn't understand the £100 UK limit on a contactless card. The hotel bar area could have been warmer. Breakfast was well organised and plentiful."

"I can’t recommend this hotel enough. Its decor is beautiful, it’s clean and fresh. The layout is wonderful because there are several places to sit, drink and enjoy the stunning views. The servers are friendly and helpful- Patricia at the lobby bar was especially great. The all-inclusive is incredible value for money- the food is overall really good (a few dishes are too salty, but other than that there’s so much choice and tasty options). I would definitely stay here again. "
