Arrival
Upon arrival, we had our temperatures taken and were assisted with our luggages before being directed to the reception.
I had booked the base room and was upgraded by 1 category, to the Heritage Suite, upon arrival.
Heritage Suite
Room 041 is 57sqm / 614sqft in size.
The suite is located on the ground floor, in the furthest building from the lobby (about 3 mins walk from the lobby).
The room is very clean and the classic furnitures are in good condition. Considering what I paid, I was pleasantly surprised by this!

Breakfast
Breakfast is complimentary for Platinum members and above and was served as semi-buffet at Indigo Restaurant, from 6.30am to 10am.
The buffet spread was great for a hotel at this price point. Hot food was made-to-order and I could pick between eggs, rice and noodle dishes.
Other facilities
The spa, swimming pool and gym has the same entrance.

It was a fantastic stay in a historical, Dutch colonial hotel and I still can’t believe what I paid! Definitely check this place out if you are in the area, before it undergoes another major renovation and increases the nightly rate by 10 or 20 times.
