It was a nice stay and when we reached staff give us default upgrade for our room to suite room and it was our 2nd wedding anniversary so yeah it was great to have upgrade. Only recommendation from my side would be if some kind of small hamper for gesture or token of stay given in suite rooms will be very nice. But yeah overall i would rate this property as 5 star one and value of money, nice to book. I will definitely look forward to book again in future.

Great

We stayed at the Apollo for one night. The room was spacious very tidy had everything that you needed for the night, including a mini bar if required in room service. We dined in the restaurant and the food was amazing and enjoy the happy hour cocktails. Lovely swimming pool and outdoor area for families plenty of parking underneath as well as outside as we had a trailer and the hotel was happy to accommodate us.
