My Experience: From Parking to Pool!
🚗 Parking: A Tight Squeeze!
The parking entrance is definitely narrow! It could be challenging for larger vehicles. Be mindful of your space! Luckily, my compact car handled it just fine. 😬
🛋️ Lobby: Simple & Sweet
You'll need to go down to level 1 from the parking area. The lobby is simple, but smells wonderful!
⏰ Check-In: Patience is Key!
I arrived around 12 PM, hoping to pre-register. I asked the staff if I could confirm my booking early and just grab the keys at 3 PM. Unfortunately, they said I had to come back at 3 PM. When I returned, there was a long queue to register! 😅
🛏️ Room: Spacious but...
During booking, I requested a room with a view of the iconic towers and I reminded the staff. It wasn't meant to be! I ended up with a KLCC view. 😅 The room was large, clean, and comfortable. The mattress was super comfy! But the bed-making wasn't the neatest. Also, the sheets and blankets had some old stains.
🛁🚽 Bathroom: Big & Functional
The bathroom was spacious and well-organized. The shower and toilet were separate. The shampoo, shower gel, and lotion smelled amazing! The only downside was that the shower area had some water pooling because the drain was a bit high.
❄️ Air Conditioning: Old School Cool!
The air conditioning seems to be an older model. There was no remote, so I had to get up and adjust the temperature manually on the box on the wall.
🚶🏻♀️Elevator: Slow & Steady
The elevator was a bit slow. Patience is a virtue! 🤭
🏞️ Environment: Beautiful Nights
The view at night was stunning! Turn off the room lights and enjoy the city lights. It was so peaceful to hear the azan and Quran recitations from the nearby mosque during prayer times.
🍽️ Breakfast: Delicious & Varied!
The breakfast was delicious with lots of choices! The nasi dagang was especially good! The staff was excellent – very polite and quick to clear our plates! 😋
🏊🏻♀️ Pool: Scenic Views!
The pool offered beautiful views.
🎂 Anniversary Surprise!
I mentioned during booking that we were celebrating our anniversary. About half an hour after check-in, the staff surprised us with a delicious cake! Thank you, Tamu Hotel! 🤗
Suggestions for Improvement:
I hope the staff can monitor guests coming from the pool and prevent them from going to their rooms while still wet. This can make the elevator wet and uncomfortable for other guests. Parents should also ensure their children change out of their wet clothes before going back to their rooms. This could also prevent the carpets from getting dirty and smelly.
It would be great if the hotel could offer a "3 Towers View" package with an extra charge. This would allow guests who want the view to book it with an additional fee, making it fairer than a "first come, first served" basis! ☺️
