Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is ideally located in The new Amwaj Island, near Amaj lagoon, making it a great choice for families at a good price. The rooms were not as clean as expected despite asking for additional cleaning, but the service, especially from the night staff, was cooperative and helpful.
I stayed in the other tower where you need a guide to show you around, and crossing the parking area inside the suite was a bit inconvenient. However, the room was very spacious, especially the open plan living/dining room and kitchen, and it was lovely, super clean with the most comfortable bed I have ever slept on.
I had a mixed experience staying at this hotel. The room I was assigned to was quiet and spacious, with a large sitting area and a convenient pantry. However, there was a persistent unpleasant smell coming from neighboring rooms, which was a downside.
The hotel offered a spacious room with a balcony and a nice view of the pool area, but the service was lacking in attention to detail. The location was family-friendly with easy access to amenities, but the dining options were limited. Overall, a comfortable stay with a few minor drawbacks.
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were very spacious, especially the open plan living/dining room and kitchen, which was a big plus. However, the service was a bit confusing as the staff seemed unaware of our reservation details. The location was convenient, close to good restaurants and coffee shops, perfect for families, but the dining options were limited and not up to par. Overall, a decent stay with some room for improvement.
The hotel had a cramped layout in the room and reception/restaurant area, which was a surprise. However, the staff were highly responsive and provided good hospitality. The location is near the lagoon and within walking distance of great dining options. The dining experience needs improvement, particularly in the swimming pool. The facilities are satisfactory.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were very cold because the AC was switched off during my stay, but they were generally clean, organized, and spacious. However, they could have been cleaner. The service was welcoming and helpful, ensuring we had everything we needed, but there was a slight confusion as they weren't expecting us or aware of our reservation details. The location was good, although a bit far from malls and restaurants. The dining experience was not impressive with limited options. Overall, a decent stay with room for improvement.
My stay at the hotel was quite comfortable with clean and spotless rooms featuring a huge, super comfortable bed, although the AC was switched off during my visit. The service was a bit lacking as I had to repeatedly call for orders and requests, but the staff were welcoming and helpful. The location, though not very close to the city center, was quiet and clean with ample parking. The dining options were limited and the food was cold, but the facilities were satisfactory overall.
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were designed for long-term living, but it was a bit noisy at night due to live music from the club downstairs. The location was great, near the Amwaj lagoon with fantastic restaurants and coffee shops, but it was far from the city center. The service was good, especially the receptionist who knew a lot about the area, but cleanliness was lacking in one instance. The dining options were limited, mainly traditional Italian dishes. Overall, it was a decent stay with some drawbacks.
