The most spectacular capital city hotel - really. We stayed in the Regency wing and the room was lovely - we had the best night's sleep. The pool and sunloungers are right beside the Indian ocean and lying there is a truly wonderful experience. We had great snacks by the pool (which were delicious and inexpensive) and then ate the... more

I am a 29 year old "world traveler" from the U.S. and I must say this was by FAR the best experience I've had abroad for the price. The hotel manager at the Regency (remodeled side) got me a great room for a great price. I mean I would have to pay 500usd a night for this room in other... more

We stayed in a Regency Room in 2007 and loved it but this time we chose the traditional room and were delighted. Huge room, so cool had to turnoff A/C as fan was so effective. Clean, crisp white cotton sheets and 2 queen size beds pushed together were great. We only stayed 1 night at hotel as we love the... more

Simply charming! Advised by trip, we booked a room on the regency (renovated) side of the hotel. The standard room was small, but adequate, and tastefully renovated. Great shower, good safe, queen size firm but not hard bed. Duvet was thin and kind of small. A door connected the room to the next room, and that was a bugger, since... more

We were recommended to stay here by some people who love it, so maybe we were just unlucky, but I don't think so. We stayed one night in a deluxe room in the Regency which is the remodelled side of the hotel and the rooms certainly were well finished with high end fittings. Unfortunately, when you leave your room the... more
