Charming, unique small hotel with lovely decor and very sweet staff
Pros:

We have loved staying at the Merchant House on a number of occasions and it has maintained its standards beautifully. I love breakfast outside on the balcony, the charming staff in the restaurant, the clever bedrooms and the wonderful art and photography everywhere. Such a treat.

Cons:

We could hear the prayer call very loudly in the night.

اقامة جميلة في مكان نظيف
Pros:

الموظفين متعاونين وودودين
النظافة ممتازة
المفارش والفوط والاثاث جديد ونظيف
سرعة التجاوب لاي طلبات
المبنى يبدو معاد ترميمه وتأثيثه ولذلك يعتبر جديد وغير مستهلك

Cons:

اصنف الفندق 4 نجوم وليس 5 نجوم من ناحية الفخامة واللوبي وخدمات الاكل
العزل ضعيف ويمكن سماع اصوات من الخارج او الغرف المجاورة
الموقع بمنطقة شعبية والمحلات المجاورة شعبية
بعض الادوات غير متوفرة الا عند الطلب مثل فرش الاسنان وادوات الحلاقة ومكواة الملابس
