5-Star HotelSummary of reviews related to the '5 Star' categoryThe Royal Marang Hotel has received mixed reviews regarding its five-star rating, facilities and services. While some guests appreciated the rooms and noted that they have a five-star hotel feel, many reviews pointed out that the overall experience falls short of five-star standards.

Guests have expressed dissatisfaction with the landscape upon entry, noting that it does not complement the luxury one would expect from a five-star establishment. Service levels were frequently criticized for not meeting expectations typically associated with such a rating with mentions of unavailability of basic services like room service and assistance with luggage.

The food, particularly breakfast, was a common point of disappointment, described as neither nice nor presentable and not reflective of a five-star status. Despite being labeled as state-of-the-art, some guests felt the hotel did not match the high standards of their previous visits, indicating a decline in quality over time.

However, it seems there is a consensus that with proper improvements, especially in service and food quality, the hotel has the potential to truly live up to its five-star designation.
