We were very happy with our stay and will definitely return. Reception staff was helpful and professional. It was a nice touch that at check-in, we were welcome with a freshly baked cookie/biscuit to take to our room. The food and service at the hotel restaurant Ethereal was excellent.

Excellent, had my recommendation.
Excellent modern comfortable hotel to stay at. Great swimming pool area & great hotel grounds. Nice high quality restaurant. Biggest problem was dealing with Hotels.com when I made a booking error. The Hilton Hotel was very helpful trying to assist sorting it out but Hotels.com was quite obtuse. Absolutely recommend this hotel.

Facilities were great, but service was disappointing. Little info on check in, waiting times at the bar & restaurant and couldn’t get through to roomservice for an hour, then gave up and drove to get food elsewhere.
