The club lounge access allows you to enjoy breakfast, afternoon tea and club lounge access (other than breakfast and afternoon tea) at the 2nd top most floor with amazing food and quite an amazing view. Would recommend for everyone to try the club access if you are patronizing this hotel for your stay. Had a pleasant stay with my family consisting of 1 y.o. infant.

Pillows were too soft and were uncomfortable for me. Very happy for the family room that allowed for the family to sleep comfortably together in the same room. Conveniently located to the heritage areas and nearby malls. Was odd that combs were not provided with the room but that's a minor issue.

We checked in the family room & very pleased that the hotel set up the sofa bed with pillows & blanket for us. Room & bathroom are clean. Location is great which is next to Komtar.

Excellent service and a fantastic location. However, a few things need to be improved: there are no rain showers in the bathroom, and the water pressure is low, necessitating a longer shower time. The soundproofing is poor; I was assigned a room directly across from the lift lobby and could hear people talking and children running outside, causing me to awaken from a dream several times during my stay.
