Good Base for a night’s stay in KK

A well run hotel right in the centre of town. Very tasty a la carte food prepared well and a pleasant Skybar where one can also dine. We used as a transit base for one night. The immediate destination wouldn’t justify a longer stay. There are beach resorts further up the coast.
