Pavilions Hotel Review : Room we booked was unavailable

No Comment Yet

We hired the Deluxe Two Bedroom Apartment as a group of 4 girls, and despite some negatives, it was a comfy spacious stay.

The Experience

The weekend outing started out bad when we turned up to find the room we’d specifically booked was not available and we’d been moved without agreement to another. Accepting the situation, we wandered around to the room. The place seemed a little grotty, the outdoor swimming pool was very small and didn’t encourage us to jump in, and the spa looked plain gross.

The rooms however were a pleasant surprise. Tidy, cosy and spacious with had no complaint there.

The hotel was ideally located for going into town, just a short walk bought you to the bars on Victoria Street, leading to town. The taxi back was inexpensive as it was so close to town.
