Sean, May 2025
Pros (+) The Mandrake is a stunning and sensual hotel. The concept is interesting and it makes you feel like you’ve entered a different world. The staff are friendly, especially Simone at reception. YOPO was great.
Cons (-) My husband and I stayed there overnight for our wedding anniversary. We had booked the terrace room as it has an outdoor area. We were given room 9 and was thoroughly disappointed as the outdoor area was actually a walkway to their kitchen/service area. And it faces a restaurant/bar (not quite sure what it is). There are constantly people sitting there (not a metre away from our room) and staff dr...

Svatopluk, May 2025
Pros (+) Staff was fantastic, my wife loved the Wavess Wellness Pool, we even enjoyed the complimentary reiki and sound healing as a relaxing session (obviously disregarding all the 'health'/'energy' claims about it). The afternoon tea was surprising and very enjoyable. Restaurant was really nice, esp. the wine, the food (sirloin and haddock) were just alright. The terrace was great despite the below.
Cons (-) The room, although anywhere else you'd be more than satisfied with it, may seem a bit of a let down when compared to the iconic mandrake suite that's advertised everywhere. It would be great if a bit more of that style, colour scheme, was used here as well. The terrace wasn't private, but actually accessible to pretty much everyone, but still felt incredibly peaceful and you would never believe yo...

Lashane, Apr 2025
Pros (+) The Mandrake is a quirky and unique hotel with a fantastic location, offering a vibrant and stylish atmosphere that stands out from other places in the area. The eclectic decor and attention to detail give it a fun, artsy vibe, making it a memorable stay.
Cons (-) The shower experience could be improved, as the drain didn’t work properly, which was a bit of an inconvenience during my stay.
