This hotel sits on the river, and every room has a perfect river view. The dinner menu and service was really good especially since there are limited food options in the area. Hotel offers a beautiful infinity pool that overlooks the river, but a bit too cold for me. I would recommend this hotel.

The architect was probably in a bad mood when the building was designed .. such a lovely site and the lobby and restaurant looks onto a cement roof . Views from the rooms are lovely though …
