Wow! Double wow, this is unbelievable but not sure who is responsible. This has to be taken as a signal of trickery and you can imagine what next .

Hi Thanks for your comment which i have reviewed with my operations manager. I have had some issues with my pool , as you may have realised but it was unfortunate that it happened during your stay. I do want to say however that our rooms were remodelled from apartments where some of our great artists once resided. I agree... More

i stayed at The Chancellor Hotel for two months last year Dec 2011- Jan 2012. i enjoyed the ambiance, and would recommend this hotel to anyone especially if you on a budget stay. There menu was quite intriguing with both local and International dishes. Staff members made me feel like home.

we stayed at this hotel during carnival, when rooms are at a premium, and hotels charge accordingly. but one would at least like to feel that one was getting some kind of value for the money! at least this rate included parking, internet etc - i see from another review that these are probably charged separately at other times. yes,...

I actually had to invent a new word to describe this hotel: nit-pickle-and-dime. After negotiating an acceptable rate, we came into town to find that every room in the hotel had more beds in it than a Prague hostel. The pool is down. Gaps between the walls and the ceiling, AC not working. The neighborhood scared most of our group.... More
