Pros (+) Nice rooms, small hotel. Breakfast made to order with a beautiful view of Lions rock.
Cons (-) Location isn’t the best as it down a long dark road and a bit away from the town but still reachable with a tuk tuk

Natalia, Feb 2025
Pros (+) A new hotel with delicious breakfasts and dinners. The staff is very warm and welcoming.
Cons (-) We were a bit disappointed not to see any elephants, but I suppose it’s because of the large number of tourists in the area.

Pros (+) Brand new rooms, clean and tidy, the staff are lovely and very tentative to anything you need. Food was great.
Cons (-) Hotel was a little bit hard to find down a long driveway and building doesn't look amazing from the outside but the guest rooms are brand new and very tidy.

Dm, Feb 2025
Pros (+) We saw wild elephant next to the hotel! That was amazing experience! Staff was very helpful and nice. View is amazing. In future I can imagine double or triple price, the hotel is open just 26 days!
Cons (-) No credit card payment, breakfast could be more interesting and better. They are still working on new rooms so little bit noise from 10 am to probably 5 pm.
