We came off the plane (which had been delayed for 5 hrs) made the short walk to the bus terminal and the free Aviator shuttle bus was waiting for us. Elliot then assisted us with our bags to Reception and then to our room 😉

Friendly staff and a great room

Top place to bunk down after a big flight or drive. The staff were fantastic and helped out with everything we needed. The rooms are comfortable and we’ll equiped. They also have a great restaurant with some really good quality food - loved the buffet breakfast is the morning!! Would definitely stay again.

Pros: the proximity to the airport, the shuttle service and the staff. The breakfast was excellent

Staff excellent and helpful but was disappointed in the cleanliness.dried leaves in shower. There was also no bedside table and I had to use the dressing chair for my cell phone etc. I asked for morning coffee and a wake up call. I got the call but no coffee

The family room was excellent value for money and was two interconnecting rooms which gave us plenty of room for all our bags.
