Our stay at Malika was great and would recommend to others. Staff were helpful and friendly. The pool was well maintained. The open air lobby was comfortable for connecting with others. Our room was clean, bed comfortable and the AC worked well. It was quiet during the day and night. Walk is 20 minutes to old town.

A really nice hotel. I had a room with a outside private area which was good. It was not busy and quiet place. A bit far to walk to the old town, but it was alright for me. The pool was clean and all over a really nice stay.

The hotel is very quiet and peaceful. The staff was very pleasant. It’s a great place if you want an authentic home town feel but close enough to heavy action. The town was a nice escape and gateway to home style meals and hospitality. I enjoyed my stay here.

Staff were very friendly. The main issue was tge hotel was unfinished and had very loud building work going on throughout our whole trip. The constant noise and dust flying around from the building site that was the hotel made it impossible to relax when there.

Position in China Town

Quite a long walk to the Old town along blocked, non-existant or poorly maintained pavements, but located in a quiet cul-de-sac away from traffic. Old style concrete construction allows noise to travel extensively. Good pair of silicon ear plugs are advised for light sleepers.
