What our guests says about facilities

The hotel offers amenities for your comfortable stay and unforgettable experiences

Fantastic Kids Club!

Our experience at the hotel's kids club was absolutely amazing! Each day our son was excited for the different activities they had planned, running from 10 AM to 4 PM. Pielanie and Shanteli were very nice, going above and beyond to make sure the kids felt special. They even invited our son each night for movie night complete with popcorn and a KitKat treat. This allowed us to relax knowing he was safe and entertained.

Relaxing Spa Experience

During our stay, I treated myself to a wonderful spa session that was the highlight of my trip! The tranquil atmosphere and professional service allowed me to unwind completely. After a few days of exploring, this spa treatment was just what I needed to recharge. I left feeling pampered and rejuvenated.

Delicious Breakfast Buffet

Every morning, the breakfast buffet was a good start to our day! With a wide array of delicious options available, it catered to all tastes. The quality and freshness of the food was impressive, making it hard to pick just one favorite dish. We always left the dining area full and satisfied!

Spacious and Comfortable Suite

Our Two-Bedroom Suite was perfect for our family's needs! It was spacious, well-equipped, and kept immaculate by the housekeeping staff, Delia and Ransha. Every day, we returned to a clean, fresh unit that felt like home. The comfort and convenience provided made our stay truly special.
