Up and running!

I just checked HHonors website...and to my surprise, rooms are available to book from Aug 15 onwards! However, I have tried some codes and it doesn't seem to work...and standard rewards (of 5000 points) is still not available, only points+cash (2000+RM95) is available!

I've just booked one night with p+c on 6th Sept!

Smile doubletree by hilton johor bahru - accepting reservations from 15 August - cat 1

http://doubletree3.hilton.com/en/hot...TDI/index.html

Seems like the doubletree hilton johor bahru will be opening sometime in Q3 2014! Currently listed as cat 1 property. Looks like great value for 5000 points per night (or 2000 points + rm per night)!

Anyone interested in booking a one night on the opening weekend (eg. Aug 16)? I'm tempted to...provided if there's some sort of forum informal gathering? lol

I will be there towards the end of August (not the opening weekend unforunately). Booked my room for 2000 Points + 110 MYR (post tax). Comparing this to a cancellable rate for 452 MYR (post tax), 1k points essentially reduces the rate by approximately US$53.

Looking forward to this property! Might finally be a cheaper way in Singapore to retain the Hilton Gold status. ^

Cool! I will be there on the first weekend of September..I am so looking forward to this property as I think it will be a good place for a mattress run!

Only premium room rewards available for this property. Any reasons?

It is a system glitch ~ very lousy hilton websites. Was looking at Xmas weekend and only premium rooms .. Finally managed to get 5 nights at standard rates.

The rooms availability page does show standard rewards and c and p available but in the next page(room selection), the option does not show up. How did you manage to book your 5 day stay?

I am also curious if they got the web site to work or if calling did the trick.
