Furnished with contemporary decor, the air-conditioned rooms are equipped with a flat-screen satellite TV and luxury amenities. Some rooms offer club lounge access. The en suite bathroom is fitted with a rain shower and a hairdryer. Guest may enjoy scenic view from the rooms. The room we had was King bed with city view. My daughter loved the room very much. Unfortunately, she was taken ill the night we arrived. We had to ask for help and extra items from reception eg information of getting medical assistance if necessary, asking for extra bottles of drinking water etc. Staff were very quick and obliging. As for the food, we had room service because of my daughter being unwell. She truly loved your kids fish and chips which she said was the best she had ever tasted! We ordered the fish and chips twice within 24 hours. We'd like to commend all staff who were so helpful and very courteous. THANK YOU SO MUCH!
