Honest review

What could be better

  • Customer service and staff training need to be more consistent, as guests reported rude and unhelpful staff, a lack of communication, and a general feeling of being treated poorly.
  • The hotel must be more transparent about pricing and event details, with reviews citing misleading information about event length and unexpected, higher charges.
  • Better maintenance and quality control are needed for rooms and amenities, as guests experienced issues with small rooms, faulty fixtures, and a lack of available products like cigars.

How we choose

Every hotel on this list is cross-checked across Google, Booking.com, Tripadvisor, Agoda and Hotels.com — plus first-hand traveler accounts on Reddit, Instagram, and TikTok. We screen aggressively for fake or incentivised reviews and weight only verified, recent, substantive guest feedback. We accept no paid placements and no sponsored reviews. When affiliate links earn a small commission, we disclose it; it never influences which hotels appear here.
