Venue Testimonials
We had our wedding celebrated at Esplanade. The planning team was very helpful! They provided the best experience for a wedding – no stress and all fun. From all the room bookings to the ceremony and reception areas, all were attended well. Food was to our satisfaction and all our guests were able to enjoy the place too. This was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding!

We stayed at Esplanade for a wedding reception. The venue room was excellent, well-decorated, and the food was brilliant! Our room was great and really clean. Breakfast was scrumptious with a huge selection of foods.
Daryl S
The hotel was in a convenient location and close to everything. The staff knew it was my wedding anniversary and they placed a free bottle of wine and a card in our room before we arrived. The buffet breakfast was delicious and had so many options. Room service was speedy. The beds were huge and comfy! Would definitely return here!
