Hotel Duus

“Good for the self-reliant traveler; not so much the hi maintenance one (you know who you are-no creamer ruins your day).”

If you are a high maintenance traveler, i.e., the $35 taxi from the airport, the lack of a bell-boy, or no creamer for the room coffee ruins your whole day, stay elsewhere.

I on the other hand enjoyed a nice hotel, with a fabulous restaurant, ideally located along a bay with a fabulous harbor side view and walking path that extended for miles. It was at the end of the main drag into a postcard beautiful town with great restaurants. Also the festival was going on that weekend. I’d stay here again in a heartbeat.

“'UNUSUAL' HOTEL!”

The Hotel was in a nice area - close to the sea front so we had some lovely walks in the evening. Close enough to the town but not much to see there! The Hotel itself was very 'unusual'!!

The Hotel was in a nice area - close to the sea front so we had some lovely walks in the evening. Close enough to the town but not much to see there! The Hotel itself was very 'unusual'!! There was no receptionist - if I needed to contact them they offered a 'virtual receptionist' who wasn't able to help me. However, I was able to get through to them on the phone. It was a bit confusing in relation to gaining entry to our room! I booked through booking.com - I was emailed by them a code to get in through the main door but I wasn't told that the same code opened the room door! Which code didn't come into operation until 3.00pm so we had to wait outside for the room to be opened! There were some steps just inside the door which was a bit awkward as we had heavy luggage. The room was clean and spacious. However, I didn't like the towels in the bathroom - they were grey and hard!!! We did get some lovely free toiletries which was a nice bonus! There is a kettle with tea making facilities - but no milk! It was handy having a fridge but it took a while for the door to stayed closed!! We had to keep the curtains closed all the time as there was a large street light outside which kept the room very bright! The advertisement on booking.com was very misleading - 'private balcony' (it was shared with other rooms and divided by a partition, there was a table but no chairs so we couldn't make use of it!). We were also lead to believe that there is a free shuttle to the airport. It is also advertised in their booklet in the room. However, having contacted them they said they don't offer that anymore and just hadn't updated their information!!! It was grand for one night - we didn't get breakfast. We left early on a Monday morning - the restaurant doesn't open on Mondays! It was exactly 9 minutes taxi drive from the airport so that was good.
