Had a great stay at the Pavilion. Room was clean with excelllent beds, had full fridge plenty of utensils. The spa bath a big hit with our grandchild and my partner. Dinner menu was excellent the portion size was on the small side fof my partner who is a big eater, 3 courses did fill though. Breakfast buffet was fantastic, everything you need to set you up for a busy day ahead. I highly reccomend this hotel. Staff were friendly and helpful.
