Excellent service
Sign up for the birthday package to celebrate with my hubby. Everything is great from staff to our room.
The only down side is the chocolate cake is not so fresh 😆 very dry sponge cake.

Overall an acceptable stay
Good and comfortable stay but the lifts were not working unfortunately during our stay and it was a bit troublesome. But the hotel staff did their best to help us transfer to their service lift instead.

As usual, everything is good, the rooms, the view, the locations and of course the service.
The only thing to pick on is the perhaps the breakfast which I believe there is still room for improvement.

Room for improvement
Stay is fine . However since I drive to the venue , the car park is a challenge for car to manoeuvre especially go down from level 7 . There are so many damaged car marked and scratches on the wall . The turning is a little too sharp for big cars
