Lonely Planet "A safe, if businesslike, bet. It has over 100 sleek and contemporary rooms with flash trimmings. Be aware that... the bathrooms are incorporated into the bedrooms themselves." Full review
Fodor's "This hotel is a stone's throw from the beach, and... it's designed in the art-deco style of the 1930s. ... The sea views from the higher floors are spectacular." Full review
