We stayed here for 4 nights and dont really have any complaints. All the staff were very friendly and the warm chocolate chip welcome cookie received upon checking in was a really nice touch. We stayed in a room with two double beds on the first floor which for the price was very small but it was clean and the... More

“Good clean comfortable room, quiet.”

Reviewed 9 May 2013

I as did 3 others stat at hotel for one night, all separate rooms. No complaints all apparently had a good night. My room was comfortable and very quiet, clean and well maintained. Check out was quick and efficient, not the case in many places. The name was being changed as we booked out to Hilton, hope the standard remains.

Thank you for your post paddle_11, it is greatly appreciated. I can assure you that the same team that looked after you is still with us, and it is pleasing to hear that they extended you a wonderful service experience. The property is now a DoubleTree by Hilton, we are committed to enhancing the service experience for our guests and... More

“Mixed bag”

Recent changeover from Crowne Plaza to Doubletree and boy is there a lot of updating to be done, i wish the team all the best! Service was good, very kind, welcoming staff which is always a plus.

“Comfortable but needs a make-over”

Reviewed 30 April 2013

Although we only stayed one night, it was very pleasant. The hotel seems to be suffering from tropical weathering and needs some rejuvenation - a bit of a paint job and flat screen TVs would give it a lift. We stayed in one of the loft rooms but it was rather dark with little natural light. Lighting for reading was... More

Stayed here for 2 weeks on business. Upgraded to executive suite due to long stay. Suite was large and spacious however completely dysfunctional for an executive suite.

“A great stay.”

Reviewed 20 April 2013

From the minute we entered the hotel, we were treated with excellent service. The hotel was cool, clean, the pool beautiful, could have done with a bit of shade though. The staff at the cafe and pool bar were very helpful.

“Average for the price”

Reviewed 15 April 2013

Room was OK, desk staff friendly but failed to respond three times to reported (admittedly minor) problems with the room. One problem was a badly frosted refrigerator, I gave up after the third complaint and defrosted it myself.

I am really sorry we did not follow about about the defrost of fridge. We should have got it right prior to you checking in. Thank you for the FRIENDLY team comment.

“Clean, comfortable,friendly”

Reviewed 15 April 2013 via mobile

Yes, prior reviews accurate. Room could do with a tech upgrade, new shower heads, new mattress. However rooms are clean and tastefully furnished. And they could offer me toasted gluten free bread. Very happy and will return.

We are just delighted and pleased to see and read your review. One of our younger team mates told me they were ''rapt'' about your review. 'Rapt'' must be a new word for tripadvisor 'praise as well. We will all be looking foreward to your next set of review. Very Best Andrew and Holiday Inn Team More
