OK

The hotel is very convenient for the Armadillo theatre. We have stayed at the hotel many times since it opened, and it is generally clean and comfortable, but it is now in need of refurbishment. The breakfast buffet was very good as usual.

Very Disappointing Check-in Service

Our stay was spoiled the moment we arrived and seeing the queue waiting to check in. We ended up waiting 35 minutes to get to the check in desk and another 15 minutes trying to check in as seemingly there was an issue with the checking in process even though the other guests around us seemed to be fine ?? At that point in steps Alan to help and told us it was what it is and we would just have to wait. He showed no interest in the fact we had already waited 50 minutes !! We were very disappointed in his overall attitude to the situation. The club lounge on the Saturday night was a joke, there was seating for 26 people which were all taken leaving another dozen or so people standing around eating their food packed in like sardines. Apart from these 2 issues the next day went a lot smoother and everything was fine.

Good overall

The hotel is nice and staff were very helpful. We had to queue twice to check in and asked to wait twice because our room wasn’t ready. The staff member did give us our upgrade, a drink at the bar and breakfast on the house. I did appreciate the gesture but our room on the 16th floor was very noisy with what I can only imagine was the hotel air con. It was so very loud. I would recommend staying at the hotel but don’t take the upgrade unless you are on a floor lower than 14 as floor 15 has the club lounge and I imagine the rooms under would be noisy. Breakfast was good and well stocked.
