I had a fantastic experience at this boutique hotel, perfectly situated on Main Bazaar with easy access to local attractions. The suite I stayed in was spacious and boasted beautiful views of the river, making it a delightful retreat. The attentive service from the staff added a personal touch, and breakfast was always a highlight with new options each morning. However, the evening music from nearby venues could be heard and might not suit everyone's preference, but it didn't detract from the overall ambiance. Overall, this hotel is excellent value for money, truly capturing the essence of Kuching.
