Review summary

Summarized by AI from 900+ reviews

A scenic waterfront retreat for families and leisure travelers.


This property welcomes families and sightseers to a relaxed, tropical atmosphere. The hotel sits alongside the Esplanade and is rounded out by three swimming pools for guest recreation. The dedicated team provides a warm, professional experience, and guests looking for a more personalized morning meal should request eggs prepared to order at the buffet. While the rooms are functional, the spacious layout ensures a comfortable stay for those prioritizing a convenient base near the city center and local waterfront attractions.


Some guests mentioned: dated room aesthetics, limited menu variety, lift wait times.
