Beautiful boutique hotel, attention to detail.

This is a beautiful boutique hotel, personable, charming, friendly and helpful staff with well appointed rooms, if a bit small, and interesting features. Rooms have ceiling fans and four poster beds. Breakfast is fresh and delicious. Staff go out of their way to accommodate you. One morning I enquired about avocado which was not available on the buffet. It was explained that it's out of season and hard to find however, the next morning I was presented with a beautifully plated avo. Staff had gone out to source some on their way home. There are many little touches like this. The colonial style building is a cool refuge against the heat. Extra features include an old style, pedal bike tuk tuk. They were kind enough to give us a test drive. And a vintage Mercedes, a treat for car lovers. Location wise, it is outside of the old town but easy enough to get to everything. Lots of lovely little restaurants within easy access too. The library and bar area is stunning. Cocktails were well made with care and delicious. A seat next to the pool is peaceful and relaxing. Watch out for the mozzies though, unavoidable in the climate so wear protection. The swimming pool does not really get sun except in the morning but I feel this is a design element to keep things cool. Would happily recommend this hotel for a peaceful, relaxing stay if you want to be away from crowds. The attention to detail is also appreciated. A little on the pricey side though depending on when you book.

A beautiful and charming boutique hotel. The service is outstanding and complimentary breakfast. Downside is that dinner has to be reserved the day before. However the food is vast and delicious. We had the best massage at the son. Rooms are spacious and comfortable. I would like the bathroom to be upgraded though. The pool is refreshing but not kids friendly as it is deep. I would booked this hotel again. Thank you for a wonderful service .

What a beautiful hotel! So peaceful but still only 19 minutes walk from all the night markets. Staff is very friendly and helpful. We booked the Royale Eurydice room and itt is definately worth it. Only thing that we found strange is that there is no room service for alcoholic drinks. We called the bar to order a bottle of sparkling to drink on the nice balcony but were told that alcohol could not be served in bedroom (as per the hotel policy). This was a bit disappointing especially when you have such a wonderful balcony. Apart from that we will definately return to this hotel.
