Peter, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Great location! Elevators take too long and have no air conditioning. Inconsistent process for parking.
Nicole, 5-night trip

6/10 Good

Great service but disappointing facilities

The service was good and at surface level the room appeared clean. However I mistakenly dropped something under the bed and found months-worth of dust underneath! The finishes were also less refined, a lot of patchwork on the ceiling, many holes on the tiles in the bathroom, etc. Not the usual Radisson standard

10/10 Exceptional

The hotel was very clean . Staff are very friendly and well trained . I enjoyed my stay
Nashreen Essop, 3-night trip

2/10 Poor

Not worthy of 4 stars. At best it’s 3*.

Hotel was busy and the staff appeared to be overwhelmed. Breakfast was mediocre for a 4 star hotel. One coffee machine was broken and the other working one produced cold and weak coffee.
S J, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great stay

Lovely hotel in a beautiful and safe neighborhood- it was so convenient that it was attached to a shopping center and that there was a boardwalk that was safely in walking distance to get outside. The staff were all splendid and the room were modern and clean. Would return again

Excellent except service front desk

The Hotel is amazing, and everything. I was disappointed with service from front desk. Extended our stay and booked sea view and we were swoped around our room was given to some guest and were left to occupy the room we did not book. Our welcome message was still giving us the initial room which was 1222. We were forced to stay 8th floor as there were no longer rooms available on the 01 Jan 2025.
