23 Love Lane Hotel

The location, the hosts and the property were phenomenal. We were very glad to have booked this stay. It was cosy, quiet, quaint and comfortable. The breakfast and high tea were also scrumptious. The best part was that it was close to the street food carts and a number of great cafes, shops and bars. We were able to see a lot on foot. The cats on the property were a bonus.

Everything was great but there were a couple of things that could have made it a perfect 10. The bathroom door didn't close all the way through. We weren't able to roll the blinds all the way up. And we couldn't access any streaming services on the TV.

Location, style, cleanliness and lovely staff

Nothing

Loved it! Very quiet, calm, and it truly feels like home. All the staff are friendly and helpful, making you feel very welcome and comfortable throughout your stay. They are always ready to assist whenever you need them. There is also evening tea served throughout your stay, accompanied by local delicacies, which is such a lovely touch. A special shout-out to Zaini! She is super friendly and always checks on us to make sure we are comfortable and have everything we need. The restaurant is also worth trying. They serve one of the best steaks — juicy, tender and delicious! The mushroom soup was excellent too. I only hope they can offer a little more variety in their main courses. Overall, a lovely and peaceful stay with warm hospitality, good food, and a real home-away-from-home feeling.

Weekend nights can be a little noisy as there are quite a few pubs around, but thankfully, the noise doesn’t get too loud or go on too late. Since the place is also close to the roadside, you can sometimes hear motorbikes revving as they pass by. Other than that, it’s a peaceful and pleasant place to stay.

The location was very central to all the main sights in Georgetown and eateries. It was surprisingly quiet for a centrally located hotel. The high tea served everyday at 4pm was an unexpected bonus and a lovely gesture. The staff, especially Janet, were excellent and very helpful.

The hotel is tired and needs repainting to refresh it. The current rustic look does not give it a clean feel. Our room was clean but dusty, there was no attention paid to the dust under the bed nor furniture. The towels could also do with refreshing because they were very thin.
