Really good Dining Experience

I had the pleasure of experiencing a romantic dinner at Blue Diamond Boutique Hotel, and it was absolutely stunning. The setup was on another level, with every detail meticulously organized. The food was delicious, and the breakfast the next morning was divine. Every bite was a delight!

Relaxing Spa Retreat

The spa at Blue Diamond Boutique Hotel is a must-visit. I indulged in a hydrating facial and a soothing massage, and both treatments were fantastic. I loved that they took care of my needs during my visit, which made the experience even more special. I can't recommend it enough!

Comfortable and Modern Rooms

My room at the hotel was not only spacious but also beautifully decorated. I appreciated the plush carpets and the underfloor heating in the bathroom, which was a good touch. The mattress was just perfect for my comfort—soft but supportive. It made my stay so enjoyable!

Luxurious Bathroom Amenities

The bathroom in my room was simply luxurious. I loved the open design that had a lovely view from the bed area. The towels were plush, and I appreciated the extra touches like gowns and slippers provided. It made my stay feel like a treat!

I found the hotel to be a decent choice, especially since I got a special price on the room. The room was clean and comfortable, and the breakfast was great. However, the renovation work was a big downside as it meant we couldn't use the pool or spa, and I really wish I had been made aware of that beforehand. The area could use some tidying up, and the reception staff's appearance wasn't as polished as I’d hoped, which lowered my initial expectations.

I stayed at this hotel primarily because I found a great price, but I have to say, if I'd paid the regular rate, I might have felt a bit let down. They’re currently renovating, which meant the pool and spa weren’t available, and I really wish I’d known that beforehand. On the plus side, my room was clean and spacious, and I enjoyed a fantastic breakfast each morning. The staff were pleasant, but the reception area could use a little more attention when it comes to presentation, as that first impression matters.

I got a decent deal on the room, but I would have felt disappointed if I had paid full price. The hotel was undergoing renovations, which meant the pool area and spa were closed. The room was clean and breakfast was excellent, but the reception area could use a bit more attention to tidiness and presentation. It's a real mixed bag for my stay.

I found the hotel to be a decent option for the price, especially since I booked at a special rate. However, if I had paid full price, I would have felt disappointed due to the ongoing renovations, which restricted access to the pool and spa area. On the upside, the room was clean, breakfast was fantastic, and the staff was quite friendly. However, the reception area could use some improvement in terms of staff presentation.

I found the hotel to be decent in terms of value for money, especially since I got a special rate. However, I was disappointed to learn about the ongoing renovations that rendered the pool area and spa unusable, which I wish I had known beforehand. The room was clean and breakfast was great, but the reception area seemed a bit messy and the staff's presentation wasn't ideal, making the experience feel less upscale than I expected.

Rooms

The room was clean overall, but it had a lingering smell that felt like it hadn't been used for a while, which was a bit off-putting. Also, the bathroom wasn't as clean as I had hoped, and the lack of toiletries was disappointing.

Service was generally excellent, especially when I needed assistance with my daughter's birthday preparations. One staff member went above and beyond to help, but I felt that the overall organization could have been improved, especially considering the cost.
