- Who it suits
- Families and anyone wanting a proper resort-style hotel, a big pool and free parking close to the airport at a fair price.
- Why we would choose it
- A big hotel with a year-round outdoor pool, a spa and gardens a few kilometres from the airport, with a free shuttle and some of the lowest summer rates.
- The compromise
- The rooms and decor are older than the newer brands, and we could not confirm the shuttle hours.
- Worth paying more?
- Worth it over a budget hotel for a family or a long layover. Not for a short night.
