We liked our relaxing rooms, plus the staff was IMPECCABLE. Comfortable beds and complimentary Wi-Fi, climate control and full-length windows. The breakfast was the best, had a wide array of food like coffee and breads. Enjoyable location within walking distance of camera museum. Alcoholic tea and juices in the sky bar, good parking place.

We liked this place. The hotel was very clean and the breakfast was good. We were in the deluxe twin room with satellite television, a personal safe and a mini-fridge-bar.

Wonderfood museum could be reached without difficulty as it' s 1 mile away. 300 feet from the hotel you'll find Kashmir Restaurant, you'll definitely enjoy your meal. We liked everything at Merchant including the comfort and staff.
