Having visited Phuket once before, my husband and I realized we really liked the Old Phuket Town district for its character, as well as the abundance of cafes and markets in that location. Our previous accommodation, Mövenpick Myth Hotel Patong, was a lengthy 30-minute car ride away, sometimes even longer if traffic was bad. As … More Review: Courtyard By Marriott Hotel Phuket Town (Phuket, Thailand)
Conveniently located in the central Bangkok district, this hotel is directly connected to MBK Center shopping mall and within walking distance to Siam Paragon, Siam Square and the National Stadium BTS station. Having heard decent reviews of this hotel, and alongside reasonable prices on Trip.com, my husband and I decided to give it a shot. … More Review: Pathumwan Princess Hotel (Bangkok, Thailand)
Situated on the fringe of Singapore’s Kampong Glam heritage neighbourhood, guests at this hotel have easy access to the surrounding cultural spots, as well as nearby shopping malls. But given the less-than-ideal stay here the last time, I must admit it was a rather tough decision whether or not to give this property another shot. … More Review: PARKROYAL On Beach Road Hotel – Club Premier & Executive Suite (Singapore)
The Pan Pacific hotel underwent a pretty extensive transformation in mid-2023, where new F&B spaces were added and certain room categories (Deluxe, Premier and Executive Marina Bay, Premier and Skyline Suite) were refreshed. Since I had a complimentary stay with club lounge access courtesy of being a Prestige member of Pan Pacific Privileges, the hotel’s … More Review: Pan Pacific Hotel – Executive Marina Bay (Singapore)
The next morning, we had the option of having our breakfast, which was served between 6.30am and 10.30am, at Karang (AYANA Segara), Padi (AYANA Resort) or To’Ge (Rimba). Since Karang was just downstairs, that made the most sense, plus the interior looked comparatively more modern. There was a substantial variety of items in the buffet … More Review: AYANA Segara Hotel (Bali, Indonesia) – Part 2
A one-night stay in Bali over the weekend would typically be an unfathomable itinerary for my husband and I, but the phrase “never say never” comes to mind in this particular instance. As he really wanted to catch the finals of an e-sports competition, we pulled together to somehow make this trip happen 😀 Thanks … More Review: AYANA Segara Hotel (Bali, Indonesia) – Part 1
Ever since I saw the launch of this relatively new hotel on Accor, I had my eye on trying it out at some point! A collaboration between Accor’s midscale Mercure brand and Japanese long-stay brand Tokyu Stay, this pioneering dual-branded hotel opened for business in December 2022. It is situated in a really convenient spot, … More Review: Mercure Tokyu Stay Osaka Namba Hotel (Osaka, Japan)
Completing our theme park stint at Disneysea and Disneyland in Tokyo, my husband and I then made our way to Kyoto for a change of scenery. When researching for hotels, this one in particular piqued my interest because of its contemporary aesthetic and a certain character it had about its spaces. Opening its doors in … More Review: Good Nature Hotel Kyoto (Kyoto, Japan)
Miyako City Tokyo Takanawa is a 4-star hotel situated within a 5-to-10-minute walk from Takanawa Gateway Station, Shinagawa Station and Sengakuji Station. It is convenient to have a variety of train lines so close by but the walk to and from these stations are largely unsheltered, so do come prepared with your umbrellas (: Given … More Review: Miyako City Tokyo Takanawa Hotel (Tokyo, Japan)
