The staff were friendly and efficient, and the location was brilliant with incredible views of the river. It was just a short stroll to the shops, restaurants, and the casino. The nighttime views of the city were stunning, and seeing the hot air balloons rise in the morning was an absolute treat. We had a fantastic stay—thank you!

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Pretty good. Some annoying things like not enough places/hooks to hang clothes/toilet bag/towels etc in the bathroom. The microwave shelf was sticking out and had a very pointy corner that I was worried about when leaning over the sink and using kettle. The pool was out of order and that had been one of the main novelties I was hoping to utilise. The cafe/room service was expensive and not enough dietary options. The view of the river was beautiful, but the layout of the room could have been better set-up to watch the fire streams from the couch (which was actually facing in the opposite direction). The location was great though, the late checkout was awesome, most of the staff were friendly enough.

High Floor ending in 21 - BEST view of the city

Make sure to get a room ending in 21!! We were on the 9th floor (room 9021), and it has THE most spectacular view of the city. Our only complaint is that the bathroom has no counter space, but for that view, it works!! Very reasonably priced, a great location, and excellent service.
