My stay at the hotel was quite enjoyable, thanks to the spacious and luxurious rooms that provided a comfortable retreat. The location near some quieter temple sites added to its charm, although the dining experience didn't quite meet my expectations. The facilities were impressive and the overall atmosphere was pleasant, but the service had its ups and downs, which could use some improvement.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The location is truly outstanding, nestled right in the heart of the temple domain, which made exploring the area super convenient.

The hotel has a beautiful setting with well-kept gardens and a fantastic central pond. However, the rooms need a bit of TLC, and I noticed that the air conditioning was not functioning properly.

The hotel offers spacious and well-kept rooms, albeit set away from the scenic grounds, which was a bit of a letdown. The service was helpful at times, especially with organizing activities, but could have been more attentive by the pool. The location provided stunning views of the stupas, which I loved, though the noise from nearby festivities might not be for everyone. Overall, it felt like a decent value for money but could use a few improvements in several areas.
