Lisa the manager was extremely helpful and gave great advice on where to go and where to eat.

The hotel only provides rooms which is no problem with so many good eating places around. Everything was very good quality and well maintained. The artwork in the lobby was fun. All in all, a very enjoyable stay. ##### Timothy Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Sybella 20 Apr 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Nice hotel Liza is a truly wonderful manager. She went above and beyond to help us including excellent restaurant suggestions. The hotel is very nicely presented and the beds and sheets great quality. For us the only drawback was the room not having a window. It is a beautiful old restored building so this is the reality for this type of boutique hotel. That said, once the air conditioning was cranked up the room was fine. We would not recommend hiring a driver via the hotel to tour the city. It would be better to go with someone who speaks English and who can explain a bit about the city. ##### Sybella Stayed 1 night in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Shagen 1 Dec 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities This was a rare find. We loved the coziness of this hotel. Lisa at the front desk was exceptionally helpful pointing us to places we could go and eat. If you are after local hawker fare they are just a 10 min walk away. Parking can be an issue as there are limited spaces but otherwise, this is an excellent little boutique hotel in the city. ##### Shagen Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2023 ### Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > - [Hotels in Trabzon](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Trabzon-Hotels.d3597.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > - [Hotels near Himeji Castle](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Himeji-Castle-Hotels.0-l6102468-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > - [Luxury Hotels in Andaman and Nicobar Islands](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Destinations-In-Andaman-And-Nicobar-Islands-Luxury-Hotel.0-0-d6049920-tLuxuryHotel.Hotel-Filter-Destinations) > - [Hard Rock Hotel Penang](https://www.expedia.co.uk/George-Town-Hotels-Hard-Rock-Hotel-Penang.h2784421.Hotel-Information) > - [Ilford Grand Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Ilford-Grand-Hotel.h90248833.Hotel-Information) > - [Hotels near Fairview Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Fairview-Park-Hotels.0-l507662-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > - [Hotels in Singapore](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Destinations-In-Singapore.d161.Hotel-Destinations) > - [Spa Hotels in South Yorkshire](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Destinations-In-South-Yorkshire-Spa-Hotels.0-0-d6048821-tSpaHotels.Hotel-Filter-Destinations) > - [Sabah Tea Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ranau-Hotels-Sabah-Tea-Garden.h4231368.Hotel-Information) > - [Palmin Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kusadasi-Hotels-Palmin-Hotel.h18981628.Hotel-Information) > - [Gila River Resorts & Casinos – Wild Horse Pass](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Phoenix-Hotels-Wild-Horse-Pass-Hotel-Casino.h2899888.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > - [Flights from Scotland](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/11219/flights-from-scotland) > - [Lufthansa Oberding (MUC) to Manchester (MAN) flights](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flight-routes/lufthansa-from-franz-josef-strauss-intl-to-manchester/lh/muc/man) > - [Flights from Tremblay-en-France (CDG) to Naples (NAP)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/cdg/nap/paris-to-naples) ### Activities > - [Things to do in Cowal](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Things-To-Do-In-Cowal.d553248621593909780.Travel-Guide-Activities) > - [Things to do in Sa Pobla](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Things-To-Do-In-Sa-Pobla.d6229812.Travel-Guide-Activities) ### Packages > - [Iceland Holidays](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Iceland.d79.Holidays-City-Breaks) > - [Martinstor Gate](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Martinstor-Gate-Freiburg-im-Breisgau.d6164951.Attraction) > - [Braga Holidays](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Braga.d6349.Holidays-City-Breaks) ### Holiday Rentals ### General > - [Visit Goveton](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Goveton.dx3000457036) > - [Visit Fuentes de Ebro](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Fuentes-De-Ebro.dx6159490) ---
