We had an amazing romantic getaway! The place had a delicious fruit platter for breakfast and the rooftop terrace had incredible views. , the room was spacious and well-decorated, with extra amenities like toiletries and fresh flowers.

We faced some issues during our stay. The stairs were quite steep, making it hard for us to get around.

This hotel truly exceeded my expectations in many ways. the value for money was outstanding, with prices that were a steal for the level of service and amenities provided. Secondly, the attention to detail throughout the hotel was remarkable. From the beautifully maintained historical building to the thoughtfully designed rooms with showers, every aspect was well taken care of. Lastly, the location of the hotel on Hurumzi restaurant was perfect for exploring the surrounding area. I loved being able to step out and be in the heart of it all. As mentioned in one review, the staff were also incredibly helpful and went above and beyond to make my stay memorable.

All in all, my experience at this hotel was fantastic and I couldn't find a single thing that needed improvement.
