We got a room facing the river and the view is amazing! The room is spacious and clean. Bed is comfortable. The Soldiers Club is just opposite the road and it's a good choice for dinner. Short drives to maccas and KFC. The only reason why I am not giving 5 stars is because I think the receptionist (who I think only work on week days) could have done better in making her guests feel welcome. She can start doing this simply by smiling 😃.

I have driven past the Esplanade since it was built in the 80's (?) and was not prepared for the layout - with the massive, domed communal lounge area on our floor. Our room (1.02) was spotless and had been tastefully renovated / updated recently. If I was to make any comment, I felt the thickness of the toilet paper was thin, and strangely, the large coffee cups didn't fit properly on their saucers. If I was to make a suggestion, a couple of complimentary bottles of water in the fridge would have been a nice touch. All in all, I thoroughly enjoyed the overnight stay and would recommend it to others.
