4 out of 5

Enjoyed staying at the esplanade, close to ferry terminal, the hotel staff were great, very helpful and happy. Our room would benefit from a make over as a little dated, was clean and big. Breakfast was perfect with lots of choice. Would stay here again.

Good hotel overall. Didn't have to interact much with the staff. There was a grocery store nearby where we bought our supplies.
