    welcoming staff
    water shortage
    lack of communication

    The staff were very welcoming and helpful.

    I endured a major water issue that hampered my stay. It was incredibly frustrating not to have access to basic hygiene for days. Additionally, the lack of communication from the hotel about this problem was disappointing and unprofessional.

    beautiful pools
    spacious rooms
    pricey dining

    We enjoyed the amazing facilities, especially the beautiful indoor and outdoor pools along with lovely views of the golf course. The spacious rooms added a touch of luxury to our stay, making it a perfect family getaway.

    In my wife’s opinion, the restaurants were a bit pricey for families. A family-friendly dining option would be a great addition for future stays.

    breathtaking views

    Had a fantastic time with friends! We enjoyed the mini golf and chill time at the sauna. Checking out the beautiful views from our room was a highlight. The free daily manager's reception is a nice touch too. Just keep in mind, early check-in might not be possible if you don't pay extra.

    slow check-in

    The spa treatments were out of this world! 💆‍♀️ Everything else, including the gorgeous pool and our lovely King Room, was fantastic too. Just a shame our check-in was a bit slow.

    energetic vibe
    friendly staff

    Couple getaway, not without flaws

    We booked the Opulence Couples Package and had a decent aromatherapy massage, the setup was relaxing. The staff were generally friendly and the hotel had a really nice vibe overall.

    The whole experience wasn't cheap but it was acceptable anyway.

    top-notch dishes
    delish breakfast
    modern facilities
    chaotic service
    chilly room

    The dining scene at Houghton Hotel is a feast for the senses! The Nova Bistro serves up delish breakfast and top-notch dishes that'll have your taste buds dancing. And the bar/lounge area? Perfect for unwinding after a day of exploring! The facilities are modern, and the ambiance is just right for a good time.

    Now, let's chat about the hiccups. The service at reception had a bit of a chaotic vibe, leaving us in limbo for our room during check-in.

    delicious food
    friendly staff
    confusing check-in
    poor pool

    I had a marvelous time at the Houghton Hotel. The rooms were spacious and modern, really top-notch. The staff provided exceptional service, with everyone being friendly and accommodating. I loved the Nova Bistro. breakfast choices were fantastic, and the food overall was delicious. The hotel ambience felt inviting. I enjoyed relaxing by the pool when I wasn’t busy exploring the area. However, there were some service hiccups at the front desk during check-in. Staff seemed a bit disorganized. Also, the secondary pool wasn’t in the best condition, which was disappointing. I expected more from a 5-star hotel regarding pool maintenance. Despite these issues, the proactive approach of the staff to address concerns was evident, making my stay mostly enjoyable.
