The reception and restaurant staff were very friendly and helpful. Specially Ms Anna Wong from the restaurant. She is always smiling and goes around to ask the guests they are ok. The room we stayed is very clean and spacious and we enjoyed our stay very much . The only setback the hotel is that guests can smell the foul air from the nearby Filipino market Once you stand outside the lobby. Because of the hotel is across the market, the surrounding area gets pretty busy . May not be pleasant if you are on holiday.

Originally my booking for the hotel is 17-21/3/2025. Due to the flight changed, I requested Expedia to change booking of the hotel to 18-22/3/2025. I got the changed and the staff of Expedia informed me that due to this change, any further change or cancellation is not allowed. I accepted this for I am not prepared to have any further change. Expedia also refunded me S$26.11. Anyhow, Expedia never informed me that everyday breakfast included was cancelled until the hotel informed me when I checked in. Simon

First of all let me say that we really enjoyed our stay. The room was just fine, the view was amazing, the pool was good and the restaurant (we only had the breakfast buffet) was very good. The location couldn't have been much better due to it's proximity to the markets. The hotel staff were all excellent and we were very happy with the price. The only negative things I have to say are some minor condition complaints. Our room needed to have the carpet cleaned and the sofa needed it's upholstery cleaned. There was some minor touch up needed in the bathroom with grout and calking that is common in many hotels. These are simple fixes that have to be done to earn a 5 star review. Please understand I am not saying it was dirty but an hour spent in the room by maintenance staff on those simple things would go a long way. Over all we very much recommend this hotel.

Beautiful property and friendly staff. Food for the room service and breakfast buffets were good as well. Liked the bottle water that they have in the rooms. I think the only mild issue I had was the standup shower, in that the water did seem to get by by the cracks of the glass door fairly easily, so the towel I was using as a mat to leave the shower was almost always soaked. There was also maybe one or two tiny bugs in the bathroom when I first checked in.

Fancy property but what travelers value most is a nice bed & hot shower & they only delivered the first. The room was opulent & visually stunning but the shower water never got hot, drainage was poor & the seals leaked so water seeped out all over the floor which created a dangerous mess requiring all the towels & robe to mop up to avoid slipping. They should focus on the basics before all the decorative stuff that's not that important when all most want is to refresh after long journeys & sleep.
