The hotel has four top class private suites. If you want your own space, nice shower and bathroom to relax at Bon Hotel has just that for you. The private suites has beautiful antique-inspired look that is ideal for those who just want to snap the ideal selfie or Instagram pictures.

Going through the second floor of the hotel you will notice on your way to the restaurant a wall full of pictures which I call a “Wall of fame”. It has pictures of celebrities, politicians and local people who has visited the hotel. The wall of fame adds to the hospitality and customer service experience  as it shows that not only does Bon hotel admire their guests, they create memories for them irrespective whether they are well known or not.

The hotel is very clean, from the reception, the elevator to the rooms, the corridors are spotless. A clean environment is indeed attractive.

Sylvia, who was my awesome guide as we were maneuvering the hotel offered me what I usually get from the receptionists every time I visit the hotel for functions, she gave me great customer service.

 As a traveller or a tourist, customer service matter’s a lot and this is what I really got from the staff and general manager.

The Wall of Fame

No matter how many stars a hotel is graded at, it should be able to be a haven for Events Managers who wants to host big functions.
