Ooghh the outside sitting is marvelous! I like the mishikaki!!! The Bar attendants are friendly and know their job well. Soft music and game watching activities are the best options why one should opt for Denfrances

Rooms are okay. The restaurant and bar just average at about 3 star hotel. The staff are great but don't get too friendly with them as some will ask for money.

Being such a huge group from a different country, they managed to handle all our needs and were on call for any inquiries. The rooms were spacious and beautiful, with modern showers inbuilt into the bathrooms. They also have a live band playing during the evening meals. However the TV in the rooms have no news channels either local or international.
