Great stay. Some of the reviews complained about noise, but at least where our room was located it was quiet. Perfect location for transport, food and nightlife.

The property was newly renovated and clean, our room was very small ..no wardrobe. It suited us for one night. Would stay again but only for a night or two due to room size.

Located in a good central location in the middle of Thai town and near the Central station. The corner of the room under the table is a little stained. Shower water pressure is low. Vibration from the light rail and air conditioning is fairly audible.

Very happy with this Hotel. Right in the middle of China Town and Light Rail next door, or 5-10min walk to Central Station for additional Light Rail, Rail and Bus options. Staff were fantastic, friendly and helpful (thank you for making our stay enjoyable). Even though Light Rail is right next door, the sound proofing in the room was excellent and did not bother us at all. Closet space/drawers are lacking, but we made do as only stayed 4 nights, but would probably struggle if staying longer. Hotel has arrangements with the carpark next door. We hired a car, but with so many transport options available close by we handed the car in early and just used public transport to get around. I recommend this Hotel.

Great little find, made even better by it’s staff

The hotel is in just on the edge of Chinatown, in theatre land. Fabulous place to stay. It’s just seconds from the light railway and a great place to be based if you like to walk to the Harbours. It relatively new so everything is in great condition, although with the care and attention shown by its whole team I think it will stay that way. Rooms are a really good size, mine had an enormous, comfortable bed; as are the bathrooms and showers. And the decor is boutique and tasteful. They have a great policy of rewarding you ten dollars a night of restaurant vouchers if you don’t use the daily housekeeping (I never use it every day anyway, for environmental reasons). And when there was a mix up one day over my housekeeping they were straight on it and dealt with it superbly. they are also part of the One Key VIP programme. I did eat in the restaurant one evening before going out early - it’s ’light bites’ - and the quality of the squid was really good . I’ve not included room photos as they are exactly as the website shows them (which is definitely not always the case). Fabulous value for money in such a major City. Well done guys

Room was clean but small, no storage space. 3 of us staying, but we're consistently left 2 bath towels & face clothes. Beds were not made tidily. Unfortunately our bag of dirty clothes was removed and disposed of by the house keeping staff. Although the issue was resolved by he helpful front desk staff and we were reimbursed, with breakfast thrown in.
