Feedback on Grafton Review
Posted: Wed Jul 28, 2004 12:41 pm
We went to the Grafton in March 2004 and have checked back a few times to see the promised review. Frankly I haven't got anything to add, except to comment that we have pretty much full agreement with everything that Steve has written. I think the review is fair and balanced. Despite being mid 30's we had a few concerns about the type of people that AI might attract but this was simply not an issue. We loved Tobago and thought the hotel was great.
One word of warning if you are considering travelling there with Virgin which we did. I have no hesitation in recommending them and thought the Tobago service was great, but we travelled on one of their recommended twin-centre deals which twins the Grafton with the Rex Papillion hotel in St Lucia. This hotel was very different (bigger, more 'chainy' possibly more downmarket) and was not a good match for the Grafton. Fortunately we went to St Lucia first so we saved the best until last!
