• Shaun from Singapore (9/10)

  Club manager was hospitable and provided solutions to my complaints.
  
  Grand and opulent lobby with grand Christmas lighting! It was a delightful experience.

• Yasmin from Netherlands (3/10)

  The room itself was the only positive experience staying at this hotel. The hotel has potential though, once they finish renovating and have the promised facilities available, and the staff is able to have normal and kind interactions with people. I could write more but to summarize, it was a very weird experience to stay at this hotel and I wouldn't recommend it.

• Oliver from Australia (9/10)

  Exceptional decor and atmosphere. People were constantly in the lobby taking photos as the Christmas decorations and general look of the place was amazing.
  
  Breakfast buffet had large variety and was of a high standard.
