We stayed 5 nights. Globally we enjoyed it, but it feels like this could be a much better place. Positive: Great location. Nice setting in a beautiful old house, renovated and refurbished with good taste. Nice little pool. Nice staff who is trying but is not very well trained. (the giggling staff mentionned in other reviews doesn't seem to be... more

Just spent 2 nights at the hotel and found it to be a very comfortable and relaxing hotel to stay in. Eric and Toni couldn't do enough to make my stay pleasant, including the use of a laptop to acces my email. Eric makes great french bread so would encourage it to order this for breakfast. having the pool is... more

Hotel appears to be an old house, roughly refurbished. Good location but from that high point its all downhill. Reception is a small shed with a few giggling girls who dont seem to know how to do anything much beyond asking for payment at the time of check-in. This makes sense as we would have checked out after day 1.... more

This was our 3rd visit to the Scandic (now known as the Scandinavian or locally as the Scan) over the last 7 years and it was obvious that despite very friendly and helpful owners and some staff who tried very hard to deliver , that the Scandic is not what it once was. Positives: The owners are helpful and friendly.... more

Most people I would have thought will end up here because it is listed in the Lonely Planet but don't let this make you blind to forming your own opinion about this place. I liked the location - it is situated just a short stroll from its own little entertainment hub away from the more blatant quayside area which has... more

Of all the hotels we have stayed in asia, this was the worst, reception was a workmans hut welcombed by giggling maniac receptionist. unhelpfull not interested at all. Who proceded to take the cash for our family room, and later deny all knowledge of said payment! having not taken a receipt staff decided to pocket the cash, not knowing we... more

I booked this by e-mail. I don't know of any way to book and pay for this over the internet. Upon arrival they had not transcribed my booking to their reception paperwork, but my room was still available. I had the basic standard room (ie the cheapest) and it cost a total of $87.24 for two nights (yes their website... more

I stayed at the Scan with my sister and her boyfriend for 3 nights. The service there was great - not always 100% timely, but always with our best interests at heart. The room was decent sized and had simple decor. We met Eric (the owner) the first day there, and spent a long while talking with him about places... more

I was staying down the street and they were full so i had to move. I found the people friendly and the room was fine. Nothing great. I heard people complaining about the skimpy breakfast but it was fine with me. It's the same price as a neighboring hotel and I would go to that one first (which I did!)... more
