- The view at IC is superb [if you get a harbour room], but if you have a night drink in the lobby of the IC, you will get this view for just a few dollars (the view from the top floor rooms of the CP is nice too)
- Location of IC may be an issue as there is not so much action in this part of the city
- No lounge access unless you pay for it at IC (free for Plat+ at CP, including an excellent breakfast at the restaurant)
- CP is brand new (IC has air conditionning issues in some rooms)
- very nice outdoor pool and spa at IC (just a small outdoor pool at CP)
I stayed at this hotel 2 weeks ago, and was upgraded to a club room, but no access to club, as a platinum. They stated this was the policy.
