Reviews and Ratings
I stayed at this hotel with my small family and found the rooms to be comfortable, clean, and perfectly met our needs. The service was extremely helpful, with staff being friendly, professional, and attentive to our every need. The location, while needing some upgrading, was great for exploring the attractions of Port of Spain, near many shops, and right next to the Queen's Park Savannah. The dining experience was excellent, offering a good selection of food with a nice view over the city. The facilities were well-maintained and provided everything we needed during our stay.
My stay at the hotel was overall pleasant. The rooms were clean and well-maintained, although a bit cramped with one bed next to the a/c unit. Waiting for fresh towels was a minor inconvenience. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, making our trip more enjoyable. The location was convenient to many attractions, but we wished for more local suggestions. The dining experience was satisfactory, but the breakfast options were lacking.
The hotel offers a fantastic location just across the Savannah, making it ideal, especially for Carnival. The rooms are clean and comfortable. The service could be more flexible, but the staff is friendly. Dining is enjoyable, although there could be more variety. The facilities are well-maintained.
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. On the positive side, the location is ideal for traveling with family and perfect for Carnival festivities. The rooms could have been more spacious, but having a private balcony overlooking the hills of Port of Spain with a distant ocean view was lovely. However, being right above the air-conditioning machinery was a downside I couldn't ignore.
My stay at the hotel was truly lovely. The rooms were clean and cozy, though a bit cramped. The service was exceptional, from arranging my airport taxi to accommodating early check-in. The location was amazing, right next to everything and convenient for both shopping and Carnival festivities. The dining experience was fantastic, offering a mix of local and international flavors. Overall, a great value for the money.
