Blairsville Holidays from £1,016

I had a very nice room up on the 11th floor where I was able to get a panoramic view of the city. The desk person who managed to place me there was a desk clerk named Joy, a charming person with an appropriate name. The room was beautiful with de rigueur fittings. The coffee pot was confusing to use, and I needed help getting it going. The TV too. I had thought of using room service, but with all the incomprehensible fees and add-ons I found I would be paying $50-plus dollars for two eggs, toast, and orange juice. An excessive amount I thought...Better to go to Flying Biscuit. I went to the dining room instead the next day. Breakfast there remained cheaper, but still expensive. I ate there 3 times during my stay, but frankly, I found the food preparations not up to snuff. Just not very good given the price -- and I think the George kitchen staff needs to up their game. I also had an unpleasant encounter with one of your staff upon returning to the hotel one night in the Foyer at a moment characterized by utter pandemonium. I found him to be hyper-sensitive and disrespectful. I will not mention the name of the person, but I'll bet he remembers me. He needs a bit of P.R. training.

Overall great stay, pool and room were quite nice. The rooftop bar was a great feature and had very friendly staff. Tvs were quite annoying to use. The main room had a sound bar that would be defaulted away from in the internal settings and anything but HDMI 1 would automatically be switched away from. Super unhelpful for mornings waking up and evenings winding down.
