My stay was quite disappointing as the room service was consistently poor and the food quality did not meet expectations. While the view from the balcony was a highlight, the overall experience felt like a waste of money compared to better options I've experienced in other hotels. The gym and indoor game facilities need serious updates to be enjoyable.
Rooms

The Monarch Hotel offers beautiful views and various amenities, but the experience left a lot to be desired due to poorly maintained facilities and overpricing on meals. My stay was relatively comfortable, but the service could definitely improve, especially considering the costs involved. It's best suited for those who have their own transportation, given its challenging accessibility.

I had quite a mixed experience at this hotel. The ambiance truly gives off a vintage colonial vibe, which I loved, especially with the live classical music. The view was stunning from the cliff, but the food quality disappointed me significantly. While I appreciated the old-world charm, the overall dining experience fell short, which is a major downside for a resort that focuses on a luxurious stay.

I found the food quality poor and inconsistent. Even if you request specific dishes directly from the chef, it doesn't guarantee a delightful meal, which is disappointing for a place like this.

The hotel boasts beautiful landscaping and vintage elements that enhance the colonial atmosphere, but the main focus should definitely be on improving the restaurant's food.

The hotel provides a picturesque experience with beautiful views of the surrounding hills and a pleasant garden. While the rooms have a charming royal feel, they could use better maintenance. The service lacked enthusiasm and the dining options could be improved, particularly in terms of quality. Overall, it's a nice place to stay for a short visit, but the dining experience could be more satisfying.
