During my first trip to Cameron Highlands, we stayed at Century Pines Hotel which is a decent and inexpensive place to stay at Tanah Rata. We enjoyed the big rooms and environment, but it was kinda far from Brinchang, which is where the town is.
Second trip there, and we've finally get to stay at the much talked about hotel in Cameron Highlands - The Smokehouse Hotel & Restaurant!
It is one of the most famous building in Cameron because of its distinctive facade and decoration of being an English Tudor style hotel that was built in 1939. Imagine how much history that building has contained?
The fine touches..
Antique door knob |
Antique lookin mirror |
Fine deco to enhance the British atmosphere |
Old fashioned switches - this is so old! |
Carlsberg advertisement in displayed in the bar |
Antique photos |
The old oil lamp |
The building facade & interior deco
Night view of The Smokehouse Hotel |
The Smokehouse Bar with fireplace and gramophone (antique music player) |
Chandeliar, photo frames, empty bottles and other deco just to complete the feel |
How nice to dine here for candlelight dinner |
The dining area beautifully decorated.. dimmed and romantic.. the English way! |
Outdoor fireplace and chimney |
Old fashioned sofas |
Infront of The Smokehouse |
Outside of the hotel room.. it's just like a small house concept.. |
The garden and flowers
The beautiful garden & fountain |
Cameron wouldn't be complete without beautiful fresh flowers! These are the flowers planted in The Smokehouse..
In the morning, the glass room is meant to be a bright, cheerful and calm place for one to enjoy breakfast to kick-start the day!
At night, it s a relaxing place with smell of flowers, and silent ambience to calm down before heading to bed.
Kind of thinking to recreate this place if I have my own home in the future.. :)
