Hotel Review: Pan Pasific Singapore

The last time i came to Singapore was in 2004 attended Sports Science Seminar under SSC. There is a lot of changes in the city landscape. The new building sprung up nearly everywhere and with the new casino attempting new and old customer Singapore become on of the busiest city in region. The only thing didnt change was the cleanliness which is for me still impress me.

I arrives today for YOG Games and the atmosphere is unbelievable. everywhere you can see the banner bunting and volunteers running helping athletes and official alike and try to make their daily routine smooth as possible.

Staying here at Pan Pacific didnt excite me much at the beginning and for sure the building itself not really standout from the rest in this area but walking into the lobby i saw very soothing design and i feel so damn dwarf. The front desk service is superb and efficient. the guest officer from Japan is so nice and friendly. The check in done on my table at guess area not at the front desk as customary to other hotel.

The interior design of the hotel is beyond my imagination and i notice they used a lot geometric design incorporated into modern themes. The room is spacious and modern. A lot of wood themes use to make us feel so tempting to stay longer in the room. The view from the room facing the shopping complex is the only setback but can't do much since the hotel located at the heart of Singapore shopping district.

I will enjoy staying here at the hotel and hope you too..

Verdict: Value for Money and good for those who have pocket tebal....

Hotel Review: Bayu Beach Resort, Port Dickson

Again off to PD for Division Retreat. Quite skeptical on the resort since the last stay here resulting a very unpleasant memories.

The resort didn't change much from the last visit two year ago and the smell still the same..cant do much since everything been arrange by the organizer.

'm supposed to get so call "suite" but it is rather a big room with basic necessities. Not even can compare with standard room in other 4 star hotel. Ok la but not much can be describe for the interior. But when you open up the sliding door the view is to die for.

for those who coming for a solitude, this place can offered so much thing to do to heal your soul but since i'm here because of an official duty then what i can do is only enjoying the view due to the tight schedule.

VERDICT:

for those who want to relax and maybe have small budget this hotel are recommended but for those who are looking for good service and good facilities maybe others hotel or resort is a better choice.

HOTEL REVIEW: BRIDGESTREET APARTMENT LIVERPOOL

I'm bless to be chosen to be part or historical technical team to Everton Youth Academy in Liverpool UK. All the story about the academy are true to it reputation. but.....the mother nature have her own plan once we reach there. the very difficult to pronounce volcano want everybody in this world to remember it presence..Puff one day...then the aviation society feel its power and run into chaos..

Anyway my stay here have to be prolong and thank to Everton Club generosity the extended stay are somehow rather pleasant and wonderful..

The apartment we stay are located in the prime area of Liverpool One, the new shopping district just open a year ago..what a location..so everyday we are walking along the famous Liverpool One with shops offering the best merchandise they can offer.

The room are so well organize, neat and modern. you can throw away a feeling that you are treated as royalty here....all facilities such as washing machine, stove, utensil, fridge and etc are provided.

Verdict: so damn good to stay if you got the kaching....$$$$$$

HOTEL REVIEW: PRIMULA BEACH RESORT TERENGGANU

Sure cannot beat the ocean view when comparing this hotel with another. The facilities provided are adequate and quite ok, didn't change much since my last visit 4 years ago. But this time time i got better room with the view and minus the carpet smell.

Overall the hotel is good for someone who want to explore Terengganu beach front and scenery. the only setback is the price is for me quite overrated.

Verdict: Good

HOTEL REVIEW: Olympic Sports Hotel

I been asked to stay in this hotel quite sometimes but only mange to check the new renovated hotel last week during NSC 2010 Training Program Workshop. At the first glimpse the exterior of the hotel remain the same as before but once i step into the lobby a true picture of interior of new renovated hotel start to kick in.

The seminar room are also renovated to cater new client taste and budget of course. With the interior the seminar room can cater for small group activities with full range of services.

But what surprise me was the hotel room . it modern and simplify interior make me want to stay longer. this hotel cater for sports community at large and with most of the association is located at OCM this hotel for sure will become a pit stop for everybody to catch up with their friends. The current room rate and seminar rate also will not burn our pockets.

Conviction: Value for money

Hotel Review: Embassy Hotel Johor Bharu

Again I'm disappointed by the hotel "gah" name. Our friend in JB want us to try this hotel since he had inside connection who can give us good discount but sadly to say that the name is not mirror the interior. Our room had been upgrade into suites but compare to other hotel this suites room only equivalent to standard room. What a letdown. The hotel layout also not user friendly since we have to go through many doors to go our room but the security is good though.

The breakfast was so simple maybe because most of the hotel guest had their own breakfast outside. The only good thing i can vouch is their dedicated staff which are very friendly and attentive.

Conviction: seriously lacking value for money

Hotel Review: Hotel Mutiara JB

When comes to comfort sure i will pick Mutiara Hotel compare to New York Hotel or Selesa Hotel in Johor Bharu. Since 2007 when ever i have chances to stay in Johor Bharu i will try to check in into Mutiara Hotel.

This trip my room been upgraded into deluxe room. The room is more specious then standard room with the new fitting i feel very comfortable indeed. But the setback is the hot water inside the room is not functioning at all and the housekeeping is quite slow in servicing my requirement. I have to wait for 30 minute and 2 calls to get iron to be sent into my room and today the house keeper forget to tide up my room until 230 pm.

emmmm nice room without nice service draw customer away guys.

Hotel review: Awana Genting

Quite sometimes I didn't come and stay here in Awana. In those day during Jaya 98 or Cemerlang 2010 program, NSC frequently organized event here in Awana.
The room look better these day. The space is well organize and make it very roomy.But I feel that the restaurant is a letdown. The food is less variety, not like before and the taste is just above average.

Hotel Grand Paragon JB

This hotel chosen because most of my staff already bored to stay in New York hotel which some how become our official when ever we go down to JB.



Nice lobby and look quite grand showing off it new outfit.



The room also not bad but maybe due to upgraded into deluxe room. The bad is not that superb and feel a little bit soft in the middle which is not good for a big guys like me. The shower is spacious and well equip. The most impressive features is the 32 flat screen.
