Amazing location, just a few steps away from the V&A waterfront area - well within walking distance and also it felt safe to walk at night. Service was great too, especially at the reception / valet which helps park and retrieve your car whenever you need. Hotel serves a decent breakfast with international selection and an eggs station. Basic amenities were provided in the room. Only gripe is that the hotel and rooms are showing signs of aging, with occasional whiffs of stench from the bathroom drains which woke us up one night (not for long thankfully). Otherwise an overall comfortable, convenient and safe stay.

This hotel is worth the money. The front desk staff was very friendly and responsive. The room was very comfortable and clean. The location was excellent because the Waterfront is only 5-10 minutes away. There is tons to do at the Waterfront. Purchase a breakfast at the hotel because it is excellent. It is a buffet with excellent food. I was very pleased with my stay and would definitely stay again.

I recently stayed at a lovely hotel with an excellent location, just a 5-minute walk to the waterfront. The staff at the hotel were incredibly helpful and friendly, making my stay even more enjoyable. Although I didn't have breakfast during my stay, it looked quite good. Overall, considering the price and the convenient location, I have no complaints about my experience at the hotel.

I don't think it is a four stars hotel, there is no breakfast, no lunch, no gym, the receptionists are all cold. Regardless I checked in very late, but they required all to check out by 11am. That is really inconvenient. I book the family room, the sofa bed is next to a very noisy air-conditioner outlet, and the sofa bed is too heavy to move, maybe it was fixed to the floor. Will not consider to stay there again.
