"The location in a residential neighbourhood isn’t for those who are creeped out by isolated side streets. Other than that it’s a brilliant choice, and entirely unlike anything else in the area." Full review

"This legendary hotel will appeal to World War II history buffs. One of the oldest buildings in the capital, it once hosted General Douglas MacArthur."
