After our previous enjoyable stay at this hotel we returned in early February to celebrate my husband's birthday. We stayed in a different room with a splendid view of the river and were able to watch the rowers early every morning as well as the splendid fireworks display for the Chinese New Year. After consultation with the ever friendly and... More

Things to consider when staying here...the train and the trams are right outside your bedroom window. There is double glazing on the bedroom window, but if you're a light sleeper, perhaps consider staying somewhere else. There are no... More

As we are in a big group of family, we rented for a deluxe seaview riverview 2 BR. The room is very spacious, with kitchen, dining room and laundry machine, so it's very comfortable when you travel with the kids abroad and have to do laundry everyday and cook some instant noodle. However, what I love the most is the... More
