acceptable stay with some serious flaws

parking lot view deceptive advertising

the breakfast was acceptable.

i specifically booked a room described as having a garden view, but the reality was quite different. the view faced the parking lot. people milled around there frequently, i was forced to keep the blinds closed for privacy. this feels like deceptive advertising.

attentive staff good produce adjacent building wedding noise

the staff at this hotel was so attentive and caring. they really were great too. i thought the breakfast produce was really good and perfectly served!!!

Our room was not located in the main building. it was in an adjacent building and to reach it i had to go outside. This wasn't ideal. there was a wedding , and it was held in a room right below my room. I wasn't able to sleep until late because of the noise.

serene woodlands comfortable bed fluffy towels

The hotel sits in a leafy suburb near woodlands. The gardens are lovely, with tranquil views of the countryside. I loved the Fraser suite, spacious, with a comfortable king-size bed. Fluffy towels and complimentary toiletries added a nice touch!

I found that evening meal options were slightly restrictive, with only set menus available
