Wonderful location, nice staff and perfect view.

A very nice place to stay! Close to the waterfront and main restaurants. The hotel is super clean, new rooms, beautiful view (ocean view room) and the staff is very friendly. My flight was very early and we left the hotel at 5am. So they prepared a lunch box for my family since breakfast opens at 6am. Thanks for all.

Great spot

I arrived after dark and was happy to have a clean quiet room, and in hotel restaurant. The bar was quiet and not staffed, given this was off season this was staffed lighter than may have been during busier times of the year. Light renovations were ongoing to improve the building non impacted me. Wish I had arrived in day light to better know my surroundings. Great location near the beach and beach restaurant. Pool overlooking the ocean was nice, too windy to enjoy. The food at dinner and breakfast was good and room comfortable. Staff was great to coordinate airport pickup/dropoff.

Awesome view and service

The service was impeccable. The staff greeted me by name before even providing my booking. Throughout the stay staff were friendly and helpful. The views are gorgeous .Slight improvement could be made such as placing the curtain on the opposite side to maximise the view and having a square toilet seat on a square toilet. Would recommend.

10/10 Exceptional

spent an overnight stay here and the place was super clean , there was a vast selection at breakfast and despite arriving late we were still able to get food from the room-service menu staff were really helpful both on arrival and throughout the stay and even accommodated our 2 rooms together (next door/same floor)
Freya, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Our check-in was easy and seamless, and the staff was very helpful and friendly. However, our room was unacceptably warm for most of the evening, despite a technician confirming that everything was in working order. The walls of the bathroom were also alarmingly dirty in a few spots. There was also no printed information of any sort in the room that we could find-no area guides, no information about hotel services or amenities, or anything else. We tried the dedicated channel on the tv for that information as well, but didn’t find it there either.
Angel, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

Great views but a stain on the Raddison brand. Very tired rooms and the restaurant is a disaster. Had bug in bed in first room. Tepid food had to be returned in Tabu. Could only offer vanilla ice cream and Brown sauce "out of stock". Laughing stock more like. Pleasant front desk staff though.

Hotel services for site seeing has none. B/fast option was just ok.
