Roots Dessert Bar is a very popular cafe which serve excellent coffee and delicious desserts is just next to the hotel lobby. Must try. 6. Many others but I just keep it to 5 items above 🙂
MalaysiaI booked the suite and it was AMAZING! Huge and beautiful and the bathtub was out of control wonderful. Will def stay again!
United States of AmericaThe receptionist and staff who prepared the breakfast were very polite and friendly. The vegetarian breakfast was good too. Thank you.
MalaysiaI loved everything about this well located, aesthetically pleasing heritage hotel! It does indeed feel like staying in a museum, but one with all the modern amenities. The room was simple, but immaculately clean with a modern bathroom and shower stall, including toiletries. There is a lovely little dipping pool off the side of the restaurant where you can sit in a lounger and enjoy the sunshine with a book and a coffee or drink. Though I didn’t visit it, there is also a bar adjacent to the lobby area and a lovely rooftop lounge with some great views. The staff were wonderfully kind and the hotel offers transport to the airport for a very fair price. Would highly recommend this hotel to any traveler to beautiful Georgetown!
