We were very happy with our short stay here. The airport meet went well, the lady at the reception desk was very helpful as were all of the staff. We had to leave early and they organized a 6 AM buffet breadfast for us, which was delicious. So this is an excellent hotel in our view.

When booking property, no information that the fitness centre was at least a 7-10 min walk away and that it is closed on friday as well as only 12-12 on saturday when i checked out. I chose The Somerset precisely because of the fitness centre, but it was disappointing I could not use it at all. Brandon
