This hotel is one of the best if not, the best that we've stayed in when vacationing in KK. Except for the water problems that KK is experiencing currently, it didn't stop the hotel from giving the best services.

Club room stay was great value

Great hotel. Staff friendly & helpful. Club room benefits were good value with snacks throughout the day and ample food choices, including alcoholic beverages, in the evenings. Great views from the clubs lounge too. Breakfast is available in both the club lounge or main restaurant offering a bigger selection of foods.

Conveniently located in the centre of the town

The hotel offer rooms of good size and comfort. The room and bathroom were clean and of modern design. The beds are comfortable. The room and the bathroom equipped with good amnesties. The internet is fast and worked reliably. The breakfast was good, however the evening diner unfortunately less consistent. We had a room with sea view. The windows were stained and could not be opened which ruined the view on the sundown. Opposite is the fish market. The smell can be incommoding on the pool and even penetrate the room. The hotel staff was forthcoming and attentive.

2/10 Poor

Stay away

Unfortunately, our stay at this hotel was very disappointing. The overall cleanliness left much to be desired—especially in the common areas, the sauna, and around the pool, which were not well maintained. The breakfast was another letdown: the quality was poor, and there were very few options to choose from. Due to these issues, we decided to cancel the remainder of our stay and requested a refund. The only positive aspect of our experience was the staff, who were very friendly and tried their best to be helpful despite the circumstances. I would not recommend this hotel until significant improvements are made.
