The owners are refurbishing the hotel without losing its original and charming ambience. The Hainanese Restaurant has such fabulous food that it was difficult to try other venues. On week-ends, it is crowded with... More

Everthing was perfect until one morning at 7 am, a group of people went to the swimming pool with lots of noise. They did not care of other customers in the hotel. They act like they were the only group staying in the hotel!

Not a bad place to stay. The staff were all very friendly - in fact the breakfast boys were apt to get in the way, constantly ''hovering'' and bringing unasked for coffee and juice. Quite sweet really, and not really a bad thing, except that i'm a misery in the morning!!! The rooms were OK , the only problem being... More
