My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms offered a superb view of the Taiping Lake and were quite spacious, but unfortunately, my room faced the untidy surroundings instead of the lake view. While the room felt a bit unclean and lacked basic facilities like bedroom slippers, the service was very accommodating, especially during check-in. The location, just in front of The Lake Gardens, was fantastic for outdoor lovers, and dining options were globally inspired but not very consistent. The facilities were minimal but adequate for a short stay.

I was thrilled with the hotel's superb location right in front of the enchanting Lake Gardens. The rooms were spacious and modern, although my view wasn't of the lake as expected from the presidential suite. The service pleasantly surprised me, especially during check-in, despite some unruly guests causing a bit of inconvenience. The dining experience left something to be desired due to breakfast offerings running low, but the Irish soda bread was delightful. The facilities were top-notch, making my stay comfortable overall.

The hotel is conveniently situated right opposite Taiping Lake Gardens with many attractions within walking distance. The rooms, although a bit dusty and lacking in some essentials like bedroom slippers, could use further cleaning to enhance guest satisfaction. The location offers easy access to Taiping Zoo, Maxwell Hill, and the Commonwealth War Cemetery, which is a big plus. However, improvements are needed in room cleanliness and provided amenities.

The hotel offers decent rooms that are clean but small for a family of 3. The lake view is the main highlight, although the value for money falls short. Service is a mix of friendliness and inexperience, with room for improvement in promptness. The location is convenient for nature lovers near Lake Garden but lacks strategic placement. The dining experience is subpar with tasteless options and not up to standard. However, the homemade pastries stand out. Overall, a mixed experience with some highlights and areas needing improvement.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. While the support from the housekeeping supervisor and manager, Mr Wan, was excellent in addressing my room issue, the room itself had some maintenance issues like a faulty sink. The location is stunning, right in front of the beautiful Taiping Lake, but the noise from the town water supply pipe behind the room could be bothersome for light sleepers.

The hotel is situated right across from Taiping Lake Gardens, offering a very good location to explore the nearby attractions. The rooms have a bit of a run-down feel with incomplete items, but overall clean and tidy with complete facilities. The service was a mixed bag with helpful staff during check-in and check-out but disappointment in parking arrangements. The dining experience was average, with some issues during breakfast, but acceptable considering the rates paid. The facilities are well-equipped and provide a decent experience.

The hotel is conveniently located near Taiping Lake Garden, making it easy to explore the town's attractions. The rooms were clean and spacious, offering a good city view, although some faced the air con compressors. The service, especially in the breakfast room, was approachable and friendly. However, there were missed follow-ups on customer requests, and some furniture showed signs of wear and tear. The dining experience was average with buffet-style meals and slow service at the egg station. Despite some minor drawbacks, the hotel offers a great location for visitors wanting to be close to Taiping Lake and the zoo.
