Beautiful stay.
The hotel is beautiful, with great pools and spa and tennis courts. We had an ocean view room which was very spacious with beautiful furniture and very comfy bed. Only 1 minute walk to the beach and esplanade and 10 walk to Cavill ave. Can highly recommend this hotel.

The place is a bit dated but it is definitely good value for money! Not super central but well located nonetheless. Can’t beat the tram stop located at the doorstep with 50-cent fares and open loop payment. Staff was nice and pools were fun and family friendly.
