Free unrestricted wireless internet is available throughout the hotel and we have over 900 international TV channels free of charge.
We have a range of dining options from our delicious a la carte bar menu, to a delightful afternoon tea, to full restaurant service with exquisite cuisine. Amidst all this we are committed to using locally sourced produce wherever possible. At the beginning of 2017 we were awarded a 2nd AA Rosette for Culinary Excellence for the dining experience in our Restaurant.
Whatever your reason for visiting The Mandolay Hotel, we look forward to making your stay with us as enjoyable as possible…
