Small hotel set in a beautiful green garden. 10 minutes taxi from Padang town centre. The atmosphere is peaceful, ideal for relaxing after a visit to the bustling city and enjoying amazing sunset. The staff were very helpful and made a great effort to speak in English. The owner, Bruno, was very friendly and attentive to his customers, and gave us some very good advice on visiting the city. The room was spacious. Possibility of taking a boat trip to visit small islands and do some snorkelling. I would definitelly recommend this accommodation.

This was the most beautiful and unexpected place I have ever stayed, by far. I needed to find any place to stop over in Padang for 1 night before I continued travelling, and I now wish I could have stayed longer. The staff were awesome and the location was simply incredible. The rooms were beautiful! Safe to say I’ll be coming back to Padang soon!

Breakfast varied. One day they couldn’t give us what we wanted(a omelette) but managed to rustle one up for the people who came to eat after us. The next day we got what we wanted while others didn’t get breakfast as they took so long to make it they didn’t have time to eat.
