    Property was nicely decorated, I truly enjoyed the stay.

    The hotel was clean based in a Colonial style building with caring staff. Had well-equipped room with a very comfortable mattress on a 4 poster bed, and I couldn't ask for more. No complaint, the venue exceeded high...

    friendly service
    excellent breakfast
    wi-fi issues
    liquor restrictions

    Here's what worked, and what didn't

    The warm and friendly service surpassed all expectations. Excellent breakfast variety and portions energized our mornings, while the prime location facilitated effortless exploration.

    Wi-Fi connectivity issues were quite significant. The signal was sporadic, which hindered some online activities. Note that the hotel lacks a liquor license, requiring visits to nearby establishments for drinks.

    Make sure you stay in the family room with the view of the church. It was near to Ablution Pool. Moreover, the free wifi was available. This hotel is equal to 5 stars...

    internet inconvenience
    odorous towels

    stylishly furnished heritage building, ample outdoor seating in the courtyard, various sitting areas with a desk

    Cleanliness can improve!!! The internet password change in the middle of the night hindered convenience!!! Musty smell from beach towels was quite off-putting!!! Too many repeated issues with orders in the restaurant!!!

    great location
    spotty wi-fi

    Gorgeous stay with lovely vibes

    The room was huge, bright, and the air con was a lifesaver in the heat. Enjoyed dining on the veranda-so chill. Also loved the afternoon tea and the fact that everything's walkable. Only thing was the Wi-Fi was a bit spotty when we needed it.

    luxurious suite
    attentive staff
    external noise
    insufficient lighting
    limited amenities

    Spacious and beautifully appointed, the suite provided a luxurious atmosphere for relaxation. The attentive staff, paired with a complimentary happy hour and good afternoon tea, significantly enhanced the experience. Breakfast offerings, including delicious vegan pizza, ensured a great start to each day. Noise from the outside could occasionally disrupt the tranquility, and there was insufficient lighting in some areas. The location in the heart of the historic area made it easy to explore nearby attractions.
