Staff were welcoming and helpful. Standout lady was Kha Mun, efficient and remembered details about us ( hopefully because we were nice! ), fun and so professional.
Room in the heritage wing was great, spacious and old style which we prefer to modern rooms which lack character.
Bottled water provided daily, complimentary mini bar and wine on arrival. Loved the daily offerings of canapés and a drink between 6pm and 7pm. Such lovely tasty nibbles and we looked forward to it each day.
Pool was quiet and well maintained with comfortable sun loungers and iced water on offer.
Breakfast was a gentle start to the day, no mobile phone conversations allowed which was fab as some people just talk so loudly and interrupt the ambience. Lovely coffee. Attentive staff.
Exemplary. A great hotel.
An exceptional stay from start to finish — luxurious rooms, impeccable service, and thoughtful attention to every detail. World-class amenities, elegant design, and a prime location make this hotel a true five-star experience worth returning to.

Upgrade room is very good, with its spectacular sea view
Room okay with everything we needed, we felt breakfast was just okay too. In relation to the staff we found them rude and very matter of fact!! I wouldn't stay again
The hotel is beautiful and the room is spacious and well decorated. The staff is friendly and attentive. I also tried the spa facilities and the message was excellent.

Great hotel, perfect situated just outside old town in Georgetown. Only backside is the very few sunbeds at the pool, annoying. Breakfast good, not fantastic. Rooms on the otherside es really great! And great service. Gym ok but quite small. On the Whole a good hotel that for sure can be recommended.
Always love to stay in this hotel. The staff were very friendly, helpful and welcome your stay. Enjoyed the Breakfast buffet at Sarkies esp roti canai, char kyaw tiau, and the juices.
