I was disappointed with the standard of this hotel. The public areas on the ground floor were contemporary and funky, but that’s where it stopped. The rooms are very tired and the air conditioning system is ancient. The hotel needs some major $$$ spent on it

I dont usually write negative things…but this was a second stay in a year and it didn’t feel as positive. Pity they had an issue with the hot water in the morning for a very like warm shower. Had to pay extra for breakfast even though had included it and we didn’t have breakfast on the first day. Paying off parking separate is a chore as you check in. And we ran out of tissues… hayfever season. All little things but in a good position for Floriade and staff friendly enough.
