About Us

Famous Irish playwright Bernard Shaw once said, “the great advantage of a hotel is that it is a refuge from home life”.

A good hotel resembles the comfort and warmth of a family home, and not to mention the delish home-cooked meals. A good hotel is all about nostalgia and creating good memories.
