    A gem in the heart of Little India in Georgetown. Love that they retained the history of the building. A truly unique experience. You will not be disappointed!

    Lovely heritage inn, right in the heart of Little India, steps away from all attractions in the centre. And huge bonus is the bistro, super breakfast but also open for meals at other times. .
