Amazing hotel
Amazing experience and exceptional staff who tended to my every need. Particularly Sivaraj who worked at the front/lobby who helped me organise my forwarding journey. Also experience the bliss package message in which Nina gave an amazing service to relax and recharge my body. Will definitely recommend and will visit again Thank you once again

Very nice property and would certainly stay there again. A couple of notes. The carpeting in our room was getting old - number of small stains - nothing critical but for the standard the hotel portrays, it should be better. The morning rooster - every morning! Both the breakfast and dinner buffet were extensive, however the food quality was a bit below what one would expect from a higher end hotel. Food was good, but needed that extra oomph to bring it to a higher level.

Online it looked great. In reality, hotel was noisy and uncomfortable, restaurant service slow and mediocre food, staff tried hard and were friendly but the service was very poor. Everything from requesting a hair dryer to a to go coffee cup was answered by a No can’t do. Disappointing.

I enjoyed my stay at the Golden Crown. I was only there one night, but it was the perfect place to rest after a busy day of sightseeing. My room was clean and spacious. The hotel is in a beautiful setting, and has these high windows in the lobby that makes you feel like you're in the middle of the jungle (you are!). The food was very good and service attentive. I would stay here again.
