The hotel is ideally located for the Parks, offering a high touch experience on a small but well-landscaped island.

Staying in the dog-friendly wing at the ground level of guesthouse 2 with double queen beds was a convenient and safe option for our family with children. The sofa bed added extra comfort, and being on the lower floors was practical. The location next to the parks was ideal, although the tight quarters were a minor drawback.
