Superb but room for better service
Hotel is sublime. Food is great as is the bar.
Cons No room service menu or info about hotel in room.
A fabulous hotel that oozes history
The hotel has a number of room options. I have stayed here four times, and each had a sea view. Most rooms in the Victory annex also have a balcony. Some of the Heritage rooms have a balcony but those that don't have large windows opening up onto the sea view. Breakfast options are varied and good quality.
Cons Nothing of note
We love it. Will definitely come back again.
Almost everything. Very impressive room, comfy sleep. Appreciate the room upgrade. English tea is one of the best I have experienced. Their patissiers know how to make things just right. Breakfast buffet was alright, nothing to shout about.
Cons I did not get the hotel rate for the English tea as I am only able to go after I have checked out my room. If people want to get the guest hotel rate, make sure you go before you check out. I could not find time to do it before check out. Two full sets, there were five of us, and could not finish the food. Well, we were 50% full before we had the English tea.
Perfect in every way
A beautiful place to be. Spacious comfortable room overlooking the Andaman Sea. Great pool. Delicious breakfast with vast array of choices.
Cons Not a big issue but the refrigerator barely chilled
It's just Perfect
This hotel completely exceeded our expectations in every way. The journey from Kuala Lumpur was quite long, but the moment we stepped into the property, the elegant, serene atmosphere melted all our travel fatigue away. Check-in was seamless and professional, and we had our keys in no time. For breakfast, guests can choose between an international buffet and a classic English breakfast; since we stayed for three nights, we had the pleasure of enjoying both. The architecture has so much character: grand hallways, high ceilings, and unique vestibules that set the room entrances back from the main corridor. This thoughtful layout provided exceptional privacy and a timeless, classic feel. The room itself was flawless, but the private balcony overlooking the sea and the spacious, luxurious bathroom were absolute standouts. It has been a week since we returned home, and we still miss it. We would return in a heartbeat.
Cons Honestly, there isn't anything we did not like. If I must say something, it'd be nice to access the other wing to check it out. The two wings seem to be independent of each other.
