While the hotel has a lot of potential with its beautiful decor and attentive staff, my stay was marred by some significant issues. The room I stayed in left much to be desired, particularly in terms of cleanliness and noise isolation. On a positive note, the breakfast was a highlight, with delicious options, but the overall experience was less than ideal due to the disturbances and room conditions.

I had a lovely birthday party at the Mandolay Hotel, where the staff made everything run smoothly and everyone enjoyed the buffet and drinks. However, the room I stayed in was quite small and a bit noisy at night, detracting from the overall experience. Breakfast charges felt excessive as well, which added to my concerns about value for money.

My stay at this boutique hotel was a mixed bag. While the room was comfortable and I had a peaceful night's sleep, the service during the dining events was a letdown. The location was fantastic for accessing local attractions, but the dining experience, particularly during events, left much to be desired. Overall, it's charming but could definitely improve in key areas.
