Great location close to the V&A waterfront. A shuttle bus and a canal boat shuttle is available to take you the short distance to the waterfront. Excellent food and incredible staff. Really enjoyed our stay - definitely our favourite so far in the Marriott BONVOY chain. The only suggestion I have is an airport shuttle would be a nice addition. Thank you,

Conveniently located (especially for the convention center), 4 star and moderately priced Made the trip easy. However, if you plan to do a lot of venturing from the waterfront, be prepared to walk a little bit and/or take a short uber ride.

The hotel is handy although you need to uber to most places . The breakfast is delicious and rooms very comfy. If you’re cruising you will need an uber to get your luggage to the hotel.
