Travel... home away from home
This weeks travel destination is none other than right here in town. I chose to visit the new Hotel Cadence Tower here in Newcrest as residents of this neighbourhood we rarely take time off to experience the tourist spots of our own city so I thought the best way to start out is with a staycation.
The Hotel is a tall 6 floors high modern building from the outside. The entrance is at a basement level not ideal when carrying a large amount of luggage. The reception area is quite large and has a few receptionists so there is no queue to check in.
Behind reception is the pool which is a good size with diving boards. Entry to the pool is via the male or female changing rooms which are furnished with a toilet and shower and plenty of lockers.
The lack of lifts does make this beautiful hotel lot of hard work on the legs. I had to walk to the top floor with my bags as that is where the bedrooms are located. they are sparcely decorated no clutter or entertainment items which is a shame I like to watch a little TV before bed but there is a lot to do around the rest of the hotel.
I spent a lot of time in the restaurant, the food was amazing the décor is black and white modern bright and the waitstaff were also very clean and matched the décor. Both the Host and the waitstaff were well informed and knew the menu and specials well.
The Gym spa floor had a very Zen like feel to it, two sauna's a mud bath/hot tub area and the spa with it's massage table and chairs were well thought out additions, and just what the body needed after strenuous work out.
I ended the day with a visit to the large library before bed where I was able to browse the web and choose a book to check out for the night before retiring to my room all of this for no extra charge.
I would recommend this hotel as a nice change of pace. The relaxed atmosphere is perfect for older couples and singles who want a break from modern technology and the stresses of life.
