A beautiful boutique hotel that makes for a wonderful haven from the chaos on the streets. Beautiful rooms, restaurants, pool and facilities. Food at both restaurants great and the rooftop Japanese restaurant was magnificent. Would definitely return to this hotel and recommend it to others.

The architecture of this inside-outside boutique hotel is in keeping with the environment and nature on grounds. The staff is very attentive and friendly. We also made use of the customer experience service to arrange private transfers and tours to all the local sites. It worked out very well. We had a lovely stay.

Room was clean and good size espically that we had an infant with us. Most staff were great and helpful. The only issue was when I booked the room the images of the room had a balcony, but the room we got didn’t have a balcony. We had to upgrade our room to get a balcony.
