I had two nights in the Chancellor this month. The first night was sharing with a friend in a two bedroom unit. The lounge area was HUGE but only one two seater/sofa. Only one bathroom. Simple kitchen which worked well. The second night was in a studio unit - much smaller and more like a hotel room. Fine, but with... More

Hi Lynda, We enjoyed hosting you and your friend during tournament week. Yes our two bedroom apartments are HUGE and loungers, sofas can get lost in the space. We hope you also made use of the double spa bath in the apartment. You are quite right, our studio units are the perfect size for couples or singles wanting to spoil... More

We recently stayed for 1 night and found the service to be excellent. The room was large, and the amenities were of a very high standard. The check-in was simple, and took only a few minutes unlike other places we have stayed. The bed was comfy and the bathroom was spotless. The spa bath was large, as was the shower.... More

Thank you for this wonderful feedback. We try to make everyone's stay as good as possible and appreciate that an efficient check in process is important. We're pleased you were able to indulge in a spa before retiring for the night and there's nothing like a freshly cooked, hot breakfast to start you off again after a good night's sleep.... More

I've stayed here several times in the past, but not for a few years. It was good to see that the room I had was modern, had updated furniture, nice linen and was still in very good condition. Often these complex's look tired afer a few years, but this one doesn't.
