"Excellent Stay at Hotel Covanro! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I had a wonderful stay at Hotel Covanro. The welcome team was very warm and professional, and all the staff provided excellent service throughout our stay. The restaurant manager and his team were extremely friendly, helpful, and attentive. A special thanks to the steam bath attendant for his kindness and attention to detail. The room was spacious, clean, and comfortable, making our stay even more enjoyable. Overall, the hospitality and service were outstanding. Thank you to the entire team for making our experience so memorable. I would definitely love to come back again and highly recommend Hotel Covanro to anyone looking for a comfortable stay with excellent service!"

"The elephants were great but we were not told about check in being after 3.00pm and early arrival would have to pay an entrance fee! To add to the confusion the hotel emailed me cancelling my 4 rooms at 2.00pm. When I contacted them, no apology just that it was a mistake!"

10/10 Excellent
"We really enjoyed our stay at 'Forest Edge Hotel'. The location is charming with nature and beautiful views all around (I think all rooms have access to a balcony). It's far away enough from the main road that you don't hear any traffic. They also have a lovely pool. The staff was very friendly, helpful and accommodating. At least in the room we stayed, there were only power outlets with circular-shaped pins (something to keep in mind if you're used to using square pin adapters). The WIFI was a bit iffy at times but that might be a good thing if you want to get away from work-related online stuff! The choices of meals was rather limited but adequate. Would love to come back for a longer stay!"
