The concept of the menu was imaginative and if the food itself didn't quite live up to expectations, it was still good. As a dining experience however, it was joke!

Could be so much better.

Lovely rooms, nice view, great pool. Staff friendly but could have been more helpful. Breakfast hot food had gone cold by 9am. Dirty main stairwell. Tatty notices sellotaped to things in the lobby made the hotel feel cheap. With an extra effort to pay attention to the small details this hotel could feel really special.
