Hotel Mona Plaza

Prior to my arrival the hotel arranged transport from the airport which was a seamless experience and very professional. Unfortunately given my early arrival there wasn’t a room available, but the team worked to arrange it as soon as possible. My eventual room on the 13th floor was impressive - very modern with great views over the city and river in the distance. The bed was two singles rather than a double, but fortunately they could be pushed together and there were electric sockets on the bedside units. The whole space was modern and spotlessly clean. The TV was the ideal size for the room, the mini bar was well stocked and there were good plugs at the sides of the bed. The digital control for the air-conditioning was a nice touch but it wasn’t the most efficient, but the seating options in the room kept it cosy and comfortable.||The bathroom continued the modern feel with plenty of storage space and modern soap dispensers on the walls. Dressing gown and slippers were provided and once again everything was totally clean. The only negative was that the towels weren’t the nicest and didn’t live up to the rest of the room’s standard.||The breakfast was pretty decent and while there wasn’t any food cooked to order, the buffet had a good selection with everything hot and fresh. Plenty of tables and a relaxing atmosphere made it a perfect start to the day. The evening bar area is also good, with friendly and efficient staff and, again, a good atmosphere. There was a few notices around showing an event on the rooftop, which would indeed be a great location for a rooftop bar but it seemed to not actually exist.||The location is very quiet and set away from the main areas, but it’s only a ten minute walk to the castle and centre so don’t let that put you off. Overall I really liked the hotel and it offered brilliant value - if you’re looking for somewhere modern and clean I’d really recommend here!
