Review summary

Based on recent reviews

The Argyle Grand Hotel is conveniently located close to the airport, offering complimentary airport shuttle service, making arrivals and departures smooth. Guests appreciate the modern and spacious rooms equipped with up-to-date technology. Some guests have noted noise from a nearby nightclub. However, the hotel also provides a well-equipped gym, and a breakfast buffet starting from 6 a.m. that many found satisfying.

warm service genuine kindness special moment

martin and brian saisi provided warm service, it. their genuine kindness anticipated my needs. they made ordinary moments special, i appreciated their service.

i'd advise guests to be very clear about alcohol pricing because there was a slight confusion with our order though the waiter and the supervisor didn't have a solution.
