It an old house in the centre of Georgetown which has been a hotel for many years. It has an open courtyard in the centre that induces a cooling breeze during the evening. No better place to stay in Georgetown

I was in Guyana for a short stay and needed to be nearby. It was a plesant experience. Staff was cordial and helpful. They hotel has done a very good job of modernizing the space and still maintained its quaint historic features.

A complete and total dump hotel. It's a very odd property (don't let the pictures fool you). The staff is rude, unpleasant, and do not like their job. Save yourself and pick another hotel in Georgetown.

Stayed here for 3 nights. The restaurant had a good selection of food, and it was quite good. The staff were friendly and helpful. The rooms are very outdated and need to be renovated. The WiFi didn’t work up in the rooms, only in the lobby could we connect.

Beautiful building in the heart of town, the food is usually good(save for breakfast one morning). However there was limited hot water so our showers weren't warm and the hotel bar closes at different times which was a little confusing.
