Great location on the river and for local area walks, sights, market, food places and bars. Staff extremely attentive, helpful and friendly. Room very comfortable and cleaned daily.

Andrew United Arab Emirates

This hotel is great. I have already recommended it! It is located within walking distance to to many temples and great streets for food and shopping. The pool and restaurant are on the back side along the river, and the views are great. You can take water taxis from the hotel. If I were going again I would splurge a little for a room with a river view, though my room was great. The staff was very nice and helpful, from arranging transportation from the airport to leaving a surprise dessert for my son's birthday!
