What our guests says about facilities

Hotel Totara offers amenities for your comfortable stay and unforgettable experiences

Spacious and Comfortable

I stayed in the Junior Suite with a Balcony and it was truly fantastic. The room was spacious, impeccably clean, and had a huge smart TV that made my stay even more enjoyable. The comfortable beds were indeed the most comfortable I've ever experienced in my hotel stays. I couldn't have asked for more from my accommodation.

Delicious Breakfast Experience

The breakfast at Hotel Totara was off the charts! I was amazed by the extensive choices available, from scrumptious pastries to fresh fruits and local dishes. The breakfast area was air-conditioned which was a big plus, and everything was impeccably clean with zero flies. I truly looked forward to starting my day there every morning.

Charming Garden and Pool

The hotel's garden and pool area were absolutely lovely. I enjoyed a peaceful afternoon soaking in the sun by the pool, which was surrounded by charming pools of koi fish and bouncing bunnies! It felt like a serene retreat oasis after a busy day exploring. The aesthetic appeal was truly calming.
