The setting is stunning and very serene and inviting. The gardens of this hotel are really lovely and made to look like a mini jungle, which is a cool , shady relief. Extremely peaceful and relaxing- sometimes to the point that you wish there were a few more people around, just to create a bit of life and atmosphere. ||||The staff are very kind ,and breakfast, with its warm croissants, and tasty omelettes ,good ,although the coffee is a bit watery and needs to be stronger. ||||The hotel appears to be staffed by various youngsters, all very kind, but they don’t speak much English, so it can be difficult to communicate if you want something in particular, or messages do not always get communicated to the appropriate person. For example, we wanted to do a different tour of the temples to the standard ones and despite an exhaustive chat to explain this, our driver seemed surprised on each occasion although he too was extremely accommodating. However,it unsettled us sufficiently to end up organising our own drives to the temple in a tuk- tuk, which actually turned out faster and cheaper. ||||Overall, a good hotel, providing you are happy to follow their suggested routes for temple trips.More||Date of stay: December 2019
