Fodor's Expert Review The Liwan Boutique Hotel

The first boutique hotel in town, located in a restored 1920s mansion, is showing its age a bit but is still an attractive blend of the traditional and the modern. Tasteful guest rooms have reproduction antique furniture, traditional floor tiles, and modern bathrooms. Top-floor rooms are a modern addition and have less character. The restaurant is in a pleasant courtyard, which has a retractable roof to accommodate the weather. Downstairs by the lobby, a bar often features live music.
