Lonely Planet "Its 283 rooms brag of a 21st-century makeover (cranberry carpets, padded walls, wi-fi), and the 1971 tower playfully shows its period at times."
Rough Guide "This towering city landmark remains the businessmen’s and journalists’ hotel of choice... and has all the class you’d expect of a five-star establishment. Immaculate rooms... and top-notch facilities."
The Telegraph8.0

DK Eyewitness "Crammed into several rooms on the ground floor of a residential block, the Funky Chicken Hostel is both lively and chaotic. It has all the usual facilities... and is run by a cheerful staff."
Rough Guide "Just around the corner from Butterfly Villa, this friendly, informal place has four-, six- and eight-bed dorms. Breakfast not included, but selfcatering facilities available."
Lonely Planet "This hostel occupies a historic home on a shaded street, with four dorm rooms that sleep 24. No private rooms and no breakfast." Full review
