"The oldest hotel in KK doesn't need to manufacture character – it fairly drips it, in a dignified if dated way... There's also a very good restaurant, coffee shop, business centre and red London cab." Full review
"A combination of colonial-era charm and a central location make this hard to beat and, as elsewhere in KK, promotional prices are often on offer."
"This hotel—established in 1954—proudly celebrates the city's past with colonial details throughout. ... The central location is this old-timer's best asset." Full review

"As high-end spots go this is an executive-class kind of place, lacking the space of a resort but making up for it with a more central location."
"The entrance is inside the Warisan Square mall, but don’t let that put you off – this stylish hotel has good-sized rooms, equipped with flat-screen TVs... Promotional rates."
