Great value for money excellent play area for the kids. It’s a very interesting Egyptian theme hotel

Meal was nice.
Had the seafood basket for two & had trouble getting through it all.

The place looks totally wild with it's Egyptian style modelling.
So unconventional & so different makes it really stand out from the crowd.

Family chose this place as we have kids & they have a great children's playground.

Also a massive TV screen for watching the footy.

Terrible, staff gave out personal details of our booking resulting in their drunken patrons trying to enter mine and my children's rooms at 4 in the morning.

Service and food were really good. Steak sandwich was sensational, caramelised onions and tasty dressing worked well

Worst customer service! Attempted to order a drink at the sports bar, staff was very rude and said she ain’t got time for it. Huge disappointment, what a shame!

The guy at restaurant stuffed up our order several times only then to reveal to birthday person that the suprise birthday cake is on its way out to the table. Food was great

It was a double birthday party and even though we were testing at times they were nice and friendly with all the meals arriving at the same time. Not easy to do.

Nice clean venue. Chefs seem to be exempted from mask wearing (can't tell me because it's too hot cooking on a 22° day- every other venue chefs have masks on!) Worse steak sandwich ever tried. Meat tasted like it was half boiled in its own juices, thinner then 1cm tough as anything and the Turkish bread so hard to bite or cut into, when complained the waitress told the chef and he just shrugged his shoulders and walked off. Good job mate, go find a job you care about and give the venue a better name for its self. The waitress with brown hair today was lovely and the young male (Will i think) in the gaming area was friendly and efficient.

Your food is alright. Been a long time customer for 7+ years along with family. But we are now avoiding & recommending others do the same due to the DISCRIMINATION you publicly post.

The bistro staff were rude, they took for ever to bring out our meals, they forgot to bring out some of our meals. When we questioned where our meals were they said they brought them out.
They then brought out our remaining meals where one was still half raw and rushed us out as they had another booking even though we weren't finished eating.

I used to avoid this place like the plague. But it looks like there's been an effort to clean up a bit, and I would actually take the family there for a meal now.

Food was good and pretty well priced. Toilets were absolutely disgusting though. Need regular cleaning during the night and day

Coffee was fine. However if you are going to server meals from refrigerated containers you would find at a fast food shop don’t do it in direct view of the customer. I got the “pineapple curry” as there was limited vegetarian dishes. It was horrendous and off putting. Stick to the standard pub food here.

The only thing I don't like about this place is the Pokies.

Good place to hangout, plenty to drink, good but limited range of cocktails and even showcasing their local Pinot Noir, I think that's the only local.

Show was entertaining. Dont know why they don't have trolleys to wheel out dessert, by the time they carry sweets around, you get tired of waiting, when you are one of the last tables served, well over 1/2 hour, or longer.food ok.
