Hotel looks imperious (somewhat like a medieval chinese palace) from outside, but everything else inside looks old, very tired and out dated. Smell of cigrettes whiffs around the lobby. Staff doesn't speak much english and there seems to be a problem with the credit card transactions. The rooms are below average mainly due to the old age. Carpet is extremely... More

Nice hotel near park, great entrance and lobby with imperator feeling, quite comfortable, good meal, need for spa or other relaxation.

It was a 7 minute walk to the South Walls. Had a nice balcony overlooking the walls and the garden. At night the walls were lit, and had a... More
