A hotel near the city but with a resort feel. The rooftop swimming pool is a nice secret hideout to really get away. The hotel retains much of its charm from its 30 year heritage. sg 02/07.
A white low rise building in lush, landscaped surroundings. The front of the hotel is the car park.
The hotel rooms are generally larger as it is an older sprawling development. The rooms come in either resort style decor with predominantly wood decorations and floral bed covers or ethnic designs with batik print decor. The rooms are rather old and in need of renovation. Bathrooms are tiled with bathtub.
The Courtyard Cafe serves local and Chinese a la carte favorites. It faces the swimming pool and lush greenery. A local specialty buffet is served daily at the Atrium. For a drink, the Planter's Den offers a cosy environment for music entertainment.
The reception counter is on the left and to the right guests are welcomed by an atrium lounge with a sunlit lush tropical landscaping including a little waterfall feature. The atrium serves up daily meals and is always bustling with activity.
