Jz completing a one night stay here- very nice property, with decent lounge offerings, 4 kinds of bottled beer and quite a few wine options- didnt see hard liquor though- the food offerings werent as extensive as the KL DT but it was sufficient for a quick evening snack. The lounge acces seems to be restricted to Diamonds or paying guests which is interesting. Also the bar on the 11th floor next to the pool is amazing- the italian restaurant opens later next month, while the makan kitchen on the ground floor was packed with iftaar diners- so didnt get to try either-but there is a very good "western" restaurant right across the street too.
They take care of the HHonors members quite well- with upgrades and laundry (press) benefits, also got a fruit basket on arrival! All in all a very pleasant stay!

That's disappointing, when the DT KL gives Lounge to Golds. How was breakfast? Any comparison to KL?

Yup, SIN too! I go to johor almost every month cause it's way cheaper over there! It's gonna be my first time overnight there though, usually I'll head to Malacca if I'm staying for a night or two. I'm actually waiting for the Doubletree Malacca to open

Still deciding between 27th Jul or 10th Aug for a staycation there.

Also, on FB, they have a promo non-refundable rate for 20% off, breakfast, internet, and a tin of DT cookies. Good for those with no status.

Rate code : PR42WP

But it seems to be not loaded yet, may need to call to book.
