A big thanks to the staff at Atura, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Apart from the food being below average, the staff went above and beyond for us. We would happily stay again...

Alistair

Disliked: Amenities
Too expensive for what it is. I had a last minute interview and flew down for the night. Facilities very average for the price and could not accommodate a late check out so I left to go to airport to try for an earlier flight. Definitely not worth $350 a night. The Bolton is far superior. Average at best
