CAT CAT VIEW HOTEL

0 nhận xét




If you've heard anything good about the Cat Cat Hotel, it should now be applied to the Cat Cat View Hotel, which is under the original ownership, under a new name. If you've heard anything bad about the 'Cat Cat Hotel,' there is a place operating next door that has bought up all the crappy rooms from the old Cat Cat and is now doing the name an injustice by running the place poorly. The Cat Cat View is an absolutely lovely place, with great rooms and great views. Despite its size, it's actually family run, and they do a very good job in terms of service -- everyone we met staying here just raved about it. It used to be renowned for the long climbs up to the best rooms at the top, but, happy news, they now have an elevator to the seventh floor. Getting to the eighth floor at the top, well, you're on your own. Renovations and expansion work are ongoing but both are being undertaken relatively unobtrusively. The rooms we saw were very homey, with good beds, pleasant bathrooms, little framed photos on the wall, and wood-burning fire places. You may get some smoke blowing back into the room when the wind shifts, but that's part of the experience. There's also a restaurant at the top that serves good food, Chinese beer, and excellent coffee in big mugs. The superior and deluxe rooms include complimentary breakfast. Highly recommended.
