It is so underrated and has a really good location. Would recommend. The guy at the front desk was so helpful and quick to help with any concerns that we had (not that there was much to be concerned about) had an amazing stay

The decoration is gorgeous and reflects the culture and history of the place. Good rooftop view of the ocean too.

Utterly enchanting- from our 5am arrival until our departure 3 days later we were looked after so incredibly well. The hotel organised our airport pickup and opened up with a gentle tap (you may need help to find it as it’s in the narrow streets of old Stonetown). The front of house was superb and Peter took care of us. The hotel has so much atmosphere, full of antiques and lush vegetation. Breakfast is in the roof balcony. Excursions can be organised. I had read a few unpleasant reviews but I can’t think why, cleanliness was first class and the hospitality was outstanding. I hope you are lucky enough to find a room - we stayed 3 nights it was so good.

We booked two rooms a month in advance but when we got there, our rooms were not available. We were sent to a much cheaper hotel and didn’t get refunded. This hotel is so unprofessional and would not recommend it.

Ein sehr nettes Innenstadthotel in sehr guter Lage. Die Ausstattung ist ungewöhnlich aber interessant. Alle notwendigen Einrichtungen haben funktioniert und es war sauber. Die Betten sind gut.
Die Dachterrasse ist sehenswert.
