The pool area was disgusting. In room dining service should be available until 10:30 pm not 8:30 pm. There should be cream available with the pancakes in the morning buffet breakfast. There should be a sliding door where the showers are in the rooms. Otherwise water goes everywhere when you have a shower. The view of the bay was lovely and the room layout was lovely. The staff were friendly. There should also be a spa in the pool area.

Great location close to the waterfront and the cbd. The happy hour was great value and the buffet breakfast was great with plenty of options. All the staff were polite and friendly. The shower water pressure was excellent, and the bed was comfortable. My only criticism was the cleanliness of the carpet. A little more attention could be paid to the edges and around things such as the legs of furniture. It only makes the mind wonder to the places you cant see.

Large room with an excellent outlook (we were at the front of the building overlooking the bay). Clean and modern. Directly opposite a large shopping mall. The only downside is the parking. A choice between valet parking for $40 or the cheaper option of metered parking in the street - while the street parking is free after 5.30pm, the meter starts up again at 9am, which is a nuisance.

Stay = good, food = not good
Good location Parking with an electric car isn’t great. Check in was good. Room was good. Comfortable bed. Restaurant staff were friendly. Food was not great. Oysters were nice. Chips were cheap. Steak was below average. Sticky toffee pudding was awful, put a pack and microwaved to within an inch of its life. Hotel itself was good, the food left a bit taste (pun intended) to the visit hence the 3 stars.
