6/10 Good
23 August 2024
This review provides an in-depth analysis of our stay at The Ellysian.
While the property lists multiple amenities, be aware that airport transfer is not free.
The hotel offers room service and a pool bar for its guests. However, on one day during our stay, we were informed that the restaurant, room service, and pool bar would be closed. Despite the lack of these services, we were still charged the full rate for that day, which I believe should have been discounted. The following day, the pool bar remained closed as well.
We dined at the rooftop restaurant, Muna, on two occasions. The first night, I ordered the stew chicken, which I would rate 3/10, the seasoning was lacking. However, I decided to give them another try and ordered the grilled pork chop the next night, which was excellent—9/10. My wife had pasta both nights, and both dishes were solid, earning an 8/10. The first night, the temperature in the restaurant was comfortable with the AC keeping us cool. However, the second night, the restaurant was uncomfortably hot. They had the doors open, hoping for a breeze, but it never came. Despite this, Arlan provided good service.
The hotel’s location is convenient, situated on the boardwalk. Can walk the entire boardwalk in 15 minutes. Shadine was very friendly.
The bathrooms could use some renovations. The garbage can and toilet brush holder were rusted. The tiles have little chips missing out of some of them. glass door leading to the pool from our room huge crack.
