We had a delightful stay at this...
We had a delightful stay at this stylish, serene guesthouse, which was full of character and charm. The staff were courteous, attentive and helpful without being pushy or overbearing. Their local knowledge was helpful in planning places to visit, shop and eat. We were so impressed by Cheong Fatt Tze Mansion that we cancelled another accommodation booking and extended our stay.The attention to detail in the restoration and decoration of this beautiful mansion make it a unique and memorable place. We only wish we had been able to stay longer! The guided tour that was available was also informative and entertaining, giving some insight into the remarkable vision of it's original and current owners.
This hotel is a very historic property,...
This hotel is a very historic property, so the atmosphere is unique and interesting. Aside from that, the building's oldness means that there are some idiosyncrasies, such as the persistent pool of water in the bathroom by the tub, which was apparently coming through the tile. Our experience this summer was affected by the film crew which had taken over more than half of the hotel. The staff who received us on arrival complained about the filming, as though expecting us to feel sorry for them! Better would have been to apologize and offer to deal with any problems. On the second night there was a problem when the crew struck their set of aluminum scaffolding and worked late into the night stacking the poles just outside our window! I'm sure that this unusual situation affected our impress of the Cheong Fatt Tze Mansion.
This was a wonderful opportunity to stay...
This was a wonderful opportunity to stay in a character property which has been lovingly restored. The only downside was the shower in the bathroom which was not fixed. Breakfast and service both excellent.
