Stayed here a few times, based on the fact that I like being able to get to the pool easily. However, after my most recent stay (which I cut short and moved to another hotel), I decided it would be my last. On your stay, you may encounter any or a combination of the following: very unfriendly, uninterested reception staff;... More

Originally I had planned to stay there for 5 nights but finally decided to cut it short to two seeing that it was too pricey for the amenities and the service the hotel offers. The swimming pool is pretty clean and pleasant but it had to be closed for a function. The gym equipment is antiquated. Breakfast lacked variety and... More

I stayed at the LVH for about ten days while working at the nearby UN base. Even with the UN rate the rooms are expensive for the quality. Rooms in the renovated part of the hotel are a bit better, though even these are dark and depressing. The breakfast buffet is just okay, with rather low quality items offered, though... More

I stayed in the hotel and this was my experience: ROOMS: -Nasty rooms with old yellowish bed covers and pillows with fade logs. -Toilet Towels clean but too old. Body Lotions in the Bathroom smell bad and unusable. -I called No. 414 to the reception but it was a wrong number. I found this number on a list of extensions... More

I stayed here for six days. I liked it a lot. The room I got was perfect for me. Nice simple and very clean. Second floor and view of pool and the lake in the distance. There were a few things missing in the room like coat hangers but I brought my own anyway ( that sounds weird - but... More

This hotel has such potential, but too bad the quality of the service brings it down. The staff was generally quite polite, but I did not have a good impression of the hotel when first arriving due to the delay of getting a room. I arrived around 9pm on a Wednesday night and didn't get a room until around 10pm.... More

I only spent one night at this hotel, and that was enough for me. Nothing was quite right. When I arrived at my room it turned out someone was already in it! I was given another room, and it smelt of smoke, although it was a non-smoking room. No one answered the reception or room service phones when I called,... More

The rooms are very nice, spacious and clean. The staff was very helpful when we asked them for extra towel or to fix the air conditionner which was too stron. The big minus of the place is the restaurant, the service is very slow and the food is really so-so, not tasty, overpriced... Just enjoy your stay in the hotel... More

Overall the hotel is very clean and fresh, the staff were very polite and accommodating, the food service was a little slow but good quality. The only fault was with some of the customers making noise and constantly complaining about service etc etc. This isn't New York!! Apart from this, I would recommend this hotel to everyone.
