The room is comfortable and nicely designed but check in time is quite long, the pool is too small, the buffet breakfast is not up to expection. Juice has no taste, fruit is sour and choices are not much. Overall it’s not worth for the price we paid.

Overall good property, nice food, convenient location. In room dining was not a good experience as phone inside room was not working and order placed was never confirmed. When checked with reception they could not confirm on room service either. This needs to change.

The property badly needs a renovation and, for nearly the exact price, I would definitely recommend the Westin next door. I thought the family-friendly aspects would justify my selection but there's no real family benefits. The facilities are mediocre and the food is pretty poor. Again, the Westin is far better. We ended up eating there mostly. While some of the staff were terrific, I felt like there wasn't anyone in charge. The regular staff seemed to do what they wanted, including the music playlists. One day around the pool, they played an EDM track that repeated motherf***er over and over again. I had to find the music guy to switch it off. So much for family friendly.

We booked a family suite and thoroughly enjoyed the royalty club perks. The cocktails and food was especially pampering. Would like to praise staff - Puvan (staff who was cleaning), Kawalan and staff who was on duty on 11 Feb noon at the carpark gantry. They were especially courteous and helpful. They attempted to offer useful information on top of what we requested, even though their command of English was limited. They replied with a gesture (hand on their chest) when they wanted to convey "you are welcome". They truly practiced what they were trained in. Would like to suggest offering ala carte food at sessions restaurant at night. If you are into live band performances, hard rock has both good music and ambience! The children were delighted with the suite experience and I would highly recommend it to families with young children.

Overall is good stay over the new year holidays. Staff are quite helpful and the room is spacious and well designed. But facilities a bit run down as wet during rainy day. Breakfast food choices quite limited. Carpark space is also limited as new years count down party not enough parking lots for hotel guests and walk in guest.
