Fodor's Expert Review Old Harbour Hotel

Just opposite the Chinese fishing nets, this 1837 Dutch heritage building, a former brokerage house, features 13 tastefully decorated rooms with bright walls, antique fixtures, and contemporary Indian artwork. The rooms have views of either the fishing nets or a walled garden, where guests can dip in the elevated pool or read under a canopy of tall trees. Edgar, the proprietor, is brimming with tips about local sights, restaurants, and the history of the building and his hometown.
