Beautiful historic accommodation right in the middle of George Town

9.0

This is a beautiful hotel situated perfectly for the exploration of George Town. The are so many excellent restaurants in close vicinity, and the Old Town can be explored right from the doorstep. Our room (and there are huge differences between the rooms, so this really applies to our room only) was quiet and very spacious. The only thing missing was a small refrigerator.

Wifi signal was abysmally bad for a hotel of this category. Once you managed to log in, Wifi was good, but putting up a couple of additional routers should be a priority. A problem inherent in Booking.com is that this hotel will pop up if you search for accommodation with parking. Only when reading the fine print you see that the only viable parking is a very expensive parking garage a few minutes away - the hotel itself does not offer parking. On the bright side, it was never a problem to find a space in the garage.

Beautiful hotel, with garden courtyards and tastefully furnished with antiques and artworks evoking an 18th-19th century house. Gorgeous rooms, large and spotlessly clean and cool. Friendly and very accommodating staff and delicious breakfast.

Super séjour

10.0

Hôtel très agréable. Grande chambre, très propre avec une bonne climatisation. Les espaces communs sont charmants. Le déjeuner est excellent. L’emplacement est tout près du quartier indien et entouré de bons restaurants. L’espace pour circuler aux abords de l’hôtel est plutôt limité, mais on s’y habitue assez vite. Le personnel est super gentil et serviable: on nous a même préparé un petit déjeuner pour apporter car notre avion partait tôt après notre quatrième nuit. Des petites attentions (recettes locales) nous attendaient à notre retour en fin de journée. Nous y retournerons dans l’éventualité d’un autre passage à George Town.

Rien, tout était parfait

Magnifique ancienne maison avec un charme incroyable.

9.0

La localisation de l'hotel est parfaite, la plupart des endroits emblématiques de Georgetown sont accessibles rapidement à pied. L'hotel est magnifique, parfaitement rénové, il y a peu de chambres et les espaces communs sont accessibles comme on veut. C'est atypique mais donne au final l'impression d'être un peu chez soi ! et le personnel est vraiment aux petits soins !

Certaines chambres n'ont pas de fenêtre à cause de la configuration de la maison et son ancienneté. c'est déroutant au départ, mais au final l'endroit est tellement beau qu'on fini par ne plus y penser.
