Repeatedly voted the world's best hotel for its service, The Oriental Hotel was established in 1876. The white room you see is called the Author's Suites. It is located in a narrow wing of the hotel lined with white shutters. Somerset Maugham, Noel Coward and Joseph Conrad all stayed in the hotel and spent time writing in this room. They still serve high tea old-school style and when I told them I was just here to look around they were so accommodating - "Please enjoy and take many pictures."
It is located right by the river among side streets and alleys. And at the end of the cramped city maze this fabulous place appears.
There is an enormous garden in back that follows the river. My camera ran out of batteries but trust me this place is breathtaking!
