Reviews for Excelsior Palace Hotel

Review 1:Our room was very small given what we paid and compared to our friends rooms. Bathroom was old and neeeded to be upgraded badly. Poor shower pressure and nowhere to put toiletries . Our room had had a dripping air con which was repaired before our stay but the wet carpet odour was very strong. Staff at the pool were not very attentive.

Review 2:Location and breakfast was very good. Swimming pool was great but it was a hike to get there and back.

Review 3:Size of room, very small given the price we paid. Shower was a trickle. And room had a wet carpet odour due to air con dripping on carpet. Staff not very friendly. We booked in October and got worst room in the house.

Review 4:The location and the pool where great, even though it was a hike to get to pool.
