I had a pleasant stay at this hotel, which is situated in a great location near the beautiful, Disneyland-like city gardens. The rooms were well maintained, albeit not as impressive as the lobby. The staff was friendly but could have been more attentive during my stay. Dining options were decent but not exceptional. Overall, the hotel offers good value for money, though there were some aspects that could use improvement.

The hotel offers stunning views of the Li River from the rooms and is located in an interesting neighborhood, close to beautiful lighted structures. However, the rooms could use some updating, as they seem stuck in the 1980s. The service is friendly but could be more efficient.

I had a wonderful stay at this hotel located right on the Li River, providing an amazing riverside view. The rooms were decent but had the unusual electricity system that I usually don't expect in a 5-star hotel. The staff was friendly and truly accommodating, even if their English was a bit basic. I loved being close to the beautiful city gardens, though it's not exactly in the hustle and bustle of downtown. Overall, it's a great spot for relaxation but there were a few quirks that prevent it from being perfect.
