Staying at the Golden Tulip was fantastic. Historic charm, delightful staff, delicious food. It is an old hotel that was much more grand in yesterday year. While aged, it could use a few upgrades (my bed was a bit lumpy) but all in all, charming and convenient and well worth the price.

Very disappointed. Must have been an amazing hotel 10-15 years ago but now in a terrible state of repair. Reception area lovely but elsewhere tired with broken tiles and furniture and lack of upkeep. Food, when available, was. Good but service in some areas very slow. Staff very kind and friendly and made the stay okay overall.

They should replace the bathtub not safe for the elderly and aged. Have lifts that one can use to access the second floor. They should not be overwhelmed to serve clients during breakfast when they are hosting a big crowd, ensure that plates and cutlery are in constant supply.

The property has amazing views and beyond imaginable pathetic service. Except house keeping staff, every other staff I encountered was below par professional and hungry for some. Customer Experience doesn’t exist in this hotel. For a premium they charge, you only want to get out of this property and let people know the actual state.

Avoid this hotel not worth the money.

The worst hotel i havw been to. Hotel is very old and is in dying need of renovation and maintenance, breakfast is bad, pastries are dry, food is tasteless. Elevator is broken down, swimming is broken down for weeks, key card system not working and have been replaced with physical keys. Avoid at all cost. Cheap but not worth it.

Stayed with my husband for honeymoon- booked ocean view was given partial ocean view room 309; the decor and the room look tired and aged. Cleanliness was average as hotel looked dated. Staff were accommodating. Food average with some flies around fruits. The best part of the stay was the front of hotel, garden, pool and lobby as rooms not as inviting. We had no deck chairs on our balcony with views obscured by a large palm tree. It was a last minute booking but we’re fortunate to steal one night at Serena hotel which made our stay at the Golden Tulip palatable.
