10/10 Excellent
"I had stayed on the property in 2022 when it was a Radisson Blu. I think it is nicer now. Clean with nice shower. Pub restaurant was good. (Main restaurant was tied up with a function the night I ate there.) Location is very convenient and they have a shuttle to both terminals. Reception staff was very helpful."
