The staff were warm and welcoming right from the entrance. They assisted my mum and me with her luggage, and check-in was quick despite a temporary power outage, which was beyond their control. The room was a comfortable size for two, and overall, we had no issues.

Everything works for me except that the Elevators are two small boxes for the entire building. I stand 12 minutes to get into one. Just pray there is no fire or emergency that you need to get out of that building fast. Otherwise, I like the service, cleanliness, and everything else.

Great hotel with friendly staff

I had a wonderful stay at Monarch Hotel. The room was comfortable and the staff very pleasant and helpful. This made the stay even more enjoyable. The hotel has several restaurants. I liked the 360 restaurant that has a great view and is always lively in the evenings. I enjoyed the diner and drinks there on several occasions.

No AC or fan. Room very hot at night, and when you leave windows open for some ventilation insects gets into the room and you can’t have a comfortable night sleep. Asked for a fan and they said they did not have, ended up leaving early before my planned check out and went to another hotel.

The rooftop area was excellent for entertainment. Nice ambiance up on the rooftop with live music and djs occasionally. The cleaning staff didn't clean my room 2 of the 4 days. The breakfast which was included was served cold without burners keeping the food warm. Check out process took me about an hour. That's unacceptable.

The hotel is good value for the money. The rooms are spacious and clean and the bed was comfortable. A church and mosque are nearby so expect early morning prayers from around 4 am. That and the dogs barking mean that ear plugs are advisable. The restaurant on the rooftop is popular with locals and the food is pretty good. I liked that the park was within walking distance. Overall, I enjoyed my stay.
