"Modern and luxurious hotel by the river in a quiet , tree lined street. The views of the surrounding hills are stunning! I was on the top floor in a suite and it was very spacious. Breakfast is Chinese and western / European too. On the rooftop there’s a pool and bar (some if it is under construction in Sept 2025) but you can still use and enjoy the pool. "
"A small hotel, but nice and clean inside with a view. Jenny is great as she reaches out to the guest to help reserve/schedule attractions and drivers. The hotel is located where there are many dinning options near by that are in walking distance. "
