Where ever you stay in Brunei, you just have to try and stay overnight in this hotel. Built in the 90s, the hotel remains the most popular and best place to stay in Brunei. The rooms are a little bit pricey but they come in great packages too. For a stay night there you get to enjoy all the facilities there for free. On top of that, the strategic location of the whole complex facing towards the South China Sea was simply amazing.
There are five restaurants (if not more) in the place ranging from Chinese to Italian. My personal favourite is De Pantai restaurant. Every Friday and Saturday night they have this amazing barbeque buffet spread for a price of 41 Brunei dollars per head. Not bad really for dishes made by top of the notch chef.
The hotel keeps improving its facilities everytime. Now they are offering services such as scuba diving, snorkeling, and other water activities at affordable prices.
I guess the only downside that I could think about the place is that it lacks shops to buy stuff like shirts and flip flops. There are only four shops in the hotel, two selling house decorative stuff and two other selling branded things.
I am amazed with its generous space of standard bedroom and you should check out the marbles, the place practically made of marble!
