Personalized wedding planning services are available for couples, with the large function room accommodating up to 265 guests for dinner dances.

Family rooms are available, with quadruple and triple room configurations that offer extra space. The hotel provides kids' meals in the restaurant, and the parkland gives children room to play outside.
