Description:
- A quaint old hotel that carries a name reminiscent of a bygone era. A large Straits-style bungalow with worn furnishings, a high-ceiling entrance hall and an atrium overgrown with lush plants evokes a powerful sense of nostalgia for a simpler and less-hurried lifestyle. Have an eye for the architectural nuances, like the double revolving doors that guard every room entrance or the imposing wooded staircase leading up to the upper floor. Therein lies the beauty of this antiquated wonder that clings precariously to the coattails of unsympathetic modernization.
