We verify reviews to ensure the traveler booked with Expedia Group. Travelers may receive a savings voucher when they submit a review. We publish all reviews, positive or negative, that meet our guidelines.
The Hotel is being subtly transformed into something closer to its former grandeur. Its still a significant way off. Its tired and basic, but improving.
The facilities are basic but functional and the staff are traned, helpful and polite.
The location of the building is the best in town, expecially if you're there to sample the culinary delights on offer.
In general, I recommend staying at this property. If you can, book a family room.

Large hotel, friendly and service minded staff. Good location for a night in Wilderness but no charm. Good central location.
What and excellent location and hotel is very big with lots of room and passages with sufficient rest/pause areas within the hotel, asked to sort out the shower water , they said they repaired it however a bottle of water is faster , was a bit of a let down (pity)
