Staff are not friendly. The person who picked us up from the airport drove insanely fast and had bad quality driving. The receptionist who checked us in was less than enthusiastic. Morning buffet is amazing, and so are the staff members who work in the restaurant, as well as the cleaning staff. Lunch buffet food was mostly cold.

This hotel is truly a gem. Beautiful building, excellent room (Rudyard Kipling) with the completely unexpected upgrade. Afternoon high tea was superb. Additional VIP benefits were drinks/food in private lounge in the evening, and free breakfast from a choice of three magnificent hotel restaurants. The best place to stay in SE Asia!

The corner studio suite at the new wing was great with partial sea view. Room was very spacious. Love that the pillows were firm. Bed was a standard King, so it felt smaller than the US King size at other hotels. Lots of options at International buffet breakfast.
