I stayed here for couple of days for business. It has a very good location and probably the best 4-star hotel in the area. You can find a lot of Turkish restaurants just outside the hotel. They have free wifi and breakfast is included. Dont expect too much from the breakfast as it had more indian dishes than continental. They... More

The internet site makes it look better than it is in reality. see http://www.theplatinumoman.com/ It would be almost OK for a business trip - but, not a good choice for a holiday with family. Stay away. The hotel tries but fails. If you can afford to pay more stay at Al Bustan Palace. It's in another league, a paradise. For... More

My husband and i stayed at this hotel in November 2012 and we had an excellent time, nothing was too much trouble for the staff, the hotel was spotless at all times and everything worked. The only thing that may be a problem for some is that it doesnt have a liquor licence but then you are in an unspoiled... More
