Clean, a little upmarket for us country folk, haha.Foodcand drinks a little pricey, but incredibly convenient to the Airport. Polite, attentive staff and relatively quiet. Only minus was the very transparent curtains that allowed a lot of light into the room overnight. Thats not a good thing when trying to get a good night sleep. Choose a room that doesnt face the AFP building!!

Convenient for what we needed for the airport, the gym, pool and sauna were great. The restaurant (Italian) however was grossly overpriced and the service was a little confused with tables receiving the wrong orders. The premium price of the food did not match the quality of food and the service provided.

Needed a place to stay between international and domestic flights. This place was outstanding. New, modern, quiet and excellent staff. On site cafe and restaurant. Easy walk from all terminals although there is a shuttle if you need it for mobility reasons (time wise it’s probably faster to walk). I’d definitely stay again.

The bed was very comfortable and the buffet breakfast was good. I was expecting that the indoor poll was heated but it wasn’t. Also expected that the room was a bit bigger because the picture looks bigger. Can’t adjust the airconditioning lower than 21 degree celsius. Also, the hotel should inform the guests to book the facial and massage before checking in because it was already fully booked when I tried to book on the day. I was expecting a more relaxing day because I chose to spend my weekend here because it’s a hotel spa, sadly I didn’t. Maybe it’s just good for an airport hotel but would not recommend if you want a staycation or relaxation day.
