I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The rooms were delightful, well-furnished, and very clean, overlooking both rivers and set in beautiful tropical gardens. The service was top-notch with friendly and helpful staff who made my stay even more enjoyable. The location, though a bit far from downtown, was perfect for a relaxed stay and made exploring the town on foot very easy. The dining experience at the hotel's Viewpoint Cafe with its magical views of the rivers was unforgettable. The facilities were excellent, especially the great swimming pool and spa. Despite its many positives, the only downsides were the slightly expensive price and the distance from the main strip.

Staying at this hotel was a mix of highs and lows. The rooms, although clean, had some useless furniture that made moving around a bit tricky. The balcony overlooking the mighty Mekong River was a special touch. The service was top-notch with friendly staff always ready to help, but the dining experience fell a bit short despite the lovely river view. The location was a great spot for history lovers but a bit far from the rooms. Overall, a decent stay with some room for improvement
