Reviews and Ratings
Despite some issues with cleanliness and smoking smell in the rooms and a limited ability to accommodate non-smoking requests, the hotel offers new rooms with nice views. The staff is polite and helpful, maintaining a friendly atmosphere. The peaceful location is convenient for both relaxation and city exploration, although there are concerns related to security. The dining options are good, offering a variety of traditional and continental choices.
The hotel was very near the gas cylinders in room 201, with comfortable and clean rooms featuring an old-styled decor. The service was exceptional with cooperative and hospitable staff, though dining could use improvement. The location was excellent but had an unpleasant smell issue. Overall, a good value for money stay with some room for enhancement.
The rooms are comfy and adequately equipped with all tech needs, but some upgrades and repairs are needed due to wear and tear over time.
I had a nice stay at the hotel. The rooms are spacious and family-friendly, but the location is a bit far from the city center. The service was excellent with friendly staff. The dining options were great, offering a variety of dishes. However, the facilities were just average.
The rooms are clean, cozy, and ideal for families with kids. The service provided, especially by Mr Khurram and the receptionist, was excellent. The dining experience offers delicious meals, including made-to-order eggs at the egg station. The facilities are top-notch, making for a comfortable stay.
