At-Niman is the inn you imagine when you are elsewhere and say "If Only" Or "Why can't they..." It's actually hard to conceive of but if they think you'd like to have something, It's there..it's done.
On my 1st trip the internet shut down at 1 am...I left a note. When I went down to breakfast, the first words I heard were "It's been taken care of" And it was.
This trip I cannot log into FT..in fact FT has blocked my computer, and any other I sign into. I returned from an afternoon 'on the town' and went to their guest computer...the opening page had changed..there in front of me were links to all major Asian, China, and International newspapers, and a link to my mail site...and, needless to say, this is now my computer's opening page as well!
I have no words for this level of service! Five stars are just not enough, even seven would be understated.
Lovely , light airy perfectly air conditioned quiet rooms (they are the Concept rooms for Conrad-thus the hotel's name). There's even a swing on my balcony with silk pillows. The interior of the rooms are filled with pieces from the owner's Asia collection. Fresh flowers and fruit are replaced daily.
And there's a fabulous breakfast (mine alternates between, as a special treat, dishes from my favorite restaurant and fresh fish with grilled vegetables or salad, and, another favorite, mangosteens, this trip). Others are eating congee, sweet thai dim sum, fruit platters, bacon and eggs.
The driver from the airport, a courtesy, even spoke English-only place in Asia this has happened
The list just goes on. They say they want the clientele to feel At-Home. Quite honestly, this is much better than being at home.Perhaps, it's like visiting relatives who believe you have inherit ed the entire family fortune
