Laura the receptionist was very friendly, accommodating and helpful, providing valuable local info. The pool was nice. The hotel's location is great for walking around the centre of the town. The hotel car park is very convenient.

Great value hotel

We booked the last room and unfortunately the one that faced the main street of Samara. Not the hotels fault. The room was ok. We did not have the breakfast at the hotel. Very nice bakery across the road, if you had enough beans and rice.. The pool and the back garden was very nice.

Fabulous stay, very helpful staff

Excellent staff from welcome to arranging bus transport back to airport. Special thanks to Laura and Karina in reception who were so helpful. Breakfast was great and serving staff also lovely. Pool was nice for a cool down and loungers always available. Pool towels free 1st day and $1 per day to change if wanted. Hotel is in town with beach, shops, bars and restaurants close by. Great location, though nothing is far in Samara. Only downside was an unpleasant smell by the rear boundary by the sun loungers. Otherwise a fabulous stay.

Amazing stay

This is a very good hotel, waking up to the sounds of birds was amazing. The staff was super helpful from assistance with parking and anything needed. Breakfast was okay. I loved our room, the art around the room and the hotel is just beautiful!!

Lovely hotel in a great location.

Hotel is in a great location. Bed was huge and comfy but felt too big for the room making it feel smaller and cramped than it was. Pool was clean and a good sun spot. Parking is across the street but not secure.

Comfortable rooms but annoying practices like not giving extra pool towels ( only 1 for 6 days).

I appreciated the mini fridge and renovated bathroom. The patio deck was pleasant. Most of the staff were very good and helpful- especially cleaning staff did a nice job.
