Looks Like I’m on a ball! 2 reviews today!
Well, I stayed at this Business hotel last month on the way to a conference at Hong Kong and I was impressed that it was much better than the box-like room that I had to stay in the Harbor Plaza hotel there.
The rooms were much more spacious( I guess space is at a real premium in a box like Hong Kong, the relativity impressed me!), the service was good, but then, back to the review!
Rooms:
Clean, nicely appointed, adequately large. Nice bedside light and AC controls
Bathroooms:
Not so good, aging fixtures, Lukewarm water(no hot baths!)
Service;
Good, the bellboys and waiters were pretty smart and had that required smile! It does mean a lot to me!
Reception:
Efficicent and quite courteous
Restaurants:
2 Silver streak and Xuberance: I didn’t try them out so I can’t comment. I did have a sandwich from room service which was OK, but their *"thair sadham" *(curd rice) was excellent and had enough for 2!
Food:
Ok, I found the chicken sandwich I ordered passable, but no Michelin 3
star stuff here, but, hey, you’re supposed to be on business here!
