GO HERE WITH
Friends (enjoy the Malaysian tapas, the cocktails, and the billiards, and then recover at the spa–you never have to leave!)
WHY WE LIKE IT
We like the extras more than the rooms themselves–the Aqua Spa, Long Bar, Purple Bar, Billiard Room (the pool table is purple!), and the fantastic courtyard garden are all compelling reasons to love this place.
AMENITY WE LOVE
The amenities make the hotel–see “Why We Like It” above.
WHAT WE WOULD CHANGE
Many cry that indifferent service makes this trendy spot a no-go. Also, this is a nighttime hotspot, so evening noise can be a problem for any non-night owls.
GOOD TO KNOW
You need to be comfortable (really comfortable) with your travel companion to stay here–glass walls and white sheer curtains separate the bathroom from the bedroom in many guest rooms, leaving little space to hide.
