We had a river view suite, and it was lovely and comfortable. We enjoyed having a sitting area, and we loved the river view. The boats on the river are noisy in the early evening, but late evening and mornings, the room is quiet.
The pool area was lovely, and we enjoyed taking breaks from the heat there and having drinks and even lunch poolside.
Breakfasts were varied and delicious, with buffet offerings that included both Western and Asian options.
We went for massages at the spa twice, and had wonderful treatments by Carol, Mary, and Jasmine.
All the staff were excellent: helpful, attentive, and courteous. A special shoutout to May, Aimee, and Brian.
We loved the charming decor of our room and the hotel, in general, and we thought the location was ideal, being a little bit outside of the hubbub of Old Town, but still a very close walk, either along the river or along the street.
The only negative was that the security alarm on the doors was so sensitive, it was necessary to shut the door quite hard the first time and not double check by trying the door again. We weren't the only ones on our floor with this issue, and it sometimes made for a bit of a disturbance.
