Superb hotel and such lovely staff
Pros:

The staff were so lovely and the hotel room was brilliant with lovely views to wake up to. The restaurant over looked the lake and the breakfast and dinner was delicious. Wished we could have stayed longer.

Safari a hotel v jednom, určite choďte :)
Pros:

Izba bola super priestranná s krásny výhľadom na bazén a jazero. Kúpeľna je skôr staršia ale splní, čo je treba. Bazén, raňajky, v noci aj sloníky, všetko super.

Cons:

Treba si zvyknúť na vrany, ktoré v noci naozaj intenzíne krákajú :D

Bien pero podrían mejorar
Pros:

El sitio es muy bonito con vistas al lago, la habitación muy amplia, el personal atento y la comida normalita

Cons:

Nada más entrar en la habitación había una cucaracha muerta en la ducha, podían haber revisado antes… y por la noche la piscina no tenía luces y no se veía nada lo que había en el agua

Prachtig gelegen hotel met behulpzaam personeel.
Pros:

De locatie van dit hotel is fantastisch. Je kijkt uit op een mooi meer waar je een bootsafari kan doen. In de avond kwamen er zelfs een aantal olifanten voorbij lopen op zo'n 5 meter afstand van het hek. Het personeel staat altijd voor je klaar om je te helpen. De oude stad is dichtbij en is goed per fiets of tuktuk bereikbaar.

Cons:

Er zitten nogal wat vogels in de bomen die rond 18 uur behoorlijk veel geluid maken, maar ja, dat is de natuur waarin je leeft.

Incredible
Pros:

The view of the elephants around the lake, water buffalo crossing the lake in front of our room. Words cannot express how special the location of the hotel is.

Cons:

All was good, I loved the pool

Pros:

superbe vue depuis l'hôtel, on peut y voir des éléphants au loin et l'hôtel propose une balade en bateau en fin de journée qui est confortable, peu cher (25 USD pour 2 personnes) et qui nous a permis de voir 6-8 éléphants en très petit comité et toute sécurité.

Cons:

le seul point dommage et qu'au vu du nombre important d'oiseaux stationnant dans les arbres de l'hôtel, toute la cours et le pourtour de la piscine et recouvert de déjection, idem pour l'eau de la piscine. pour autant je ne proposerai pas d'essayer d'enlever ces arbres et oiseaux qui donne du charme à l'endroit.

Elephants on the door step, was magical! I will never get over sitting in the pool with a beer and being able to watch wild elephants.
The pool was a good size.
The owner sorted out our transport and safari for a fantastic price and it ran seamlessly.

Cons:

Food options limited.
Limited seating/comfortable loungers around the pool.
