Reviews of Ren I Tang Heritage Inn

Staying in a restored Chinese herbalist's shophouse is a unique and wonderful experience. Absolutely loved the character of the building and the co-owner, Teng, was a fantastic resource for suggestions. The location of this property is fantastic, very near to tons of restaurants, Little India, currency exchanges, and other sights of interest. The steep wooden staircase and the collection of old medical paraphernalia gave this place a lot of charm and character. We also liked coming in at night and hanging out in the bistro area before going up to our room. We are very pleased that we chose to pay a little more in order to stay here. However, the breakfast was a letdown - it was not bad, just not that great. The cooked-to-order eggs, fruit, coffee/tea, and roti were all quite good but the rest of the offerings were meh. Also, our room was quite small and the bathroom not nice, as it has an unfinished concrete floor and no design/decor. there was no counter space to put toiletries. But, the shower itself was good - hot and strong. We really like this hotel overall. We think it was a little overpriced, however understand it takes more money to have the privilege to stay in a restored historic building.
