This 99-room behemoth near the bridge looks horrendous from the outside, but it has a
calm interior with snappy business-style rooms, great facilities, including a large spa and
an excellent in-house restaurant (mains Ikr3600 to lkr5900). Get a room overlooking the
lovely river, not the dire car park.
