Great stay, horrible sleep.
The check in experience was average- didn't tell us what time to check out, where to park, how to get our car etc. The valet parking staff were very friendly. The room was large and very nice. The bed was horrible to sleep on- the mattress was very poor. You do get to order a pillow of your choice from a menu which is a great service. The pool has excellent views.

Dianne

The room they say sleeps 3 with harbour views is very small. Cannot climatise in the room. Air con was either too cold on 19 degrees and very warm on 21 - 22 degrees. Valet parking was way too rich at $89 per night, to park your car across the road in a normal car parking station.Finished room service was not collect until the next afternoon. Very disappointed. Expected much more

4 stars was applicable due only because of major construction work going on which spoilt the harbour view. Otherwise our stay was perfect. Beautiful hotel with excellent facilities and rooms.
