Yes- it is excellent- for me the best "hotel" (Valley Wing that is) in Singapore by far.

Slightly OT but I went to the new Italian restaurant at the Fullerton Hotel in Singapore last month ('the Lighthouse'). Very good food, great views and already very popular with the locals. Recommended.

I think the best thing about The Fullerton is the food - very good all round. I am waiting for them to get going with the room/suite refurbishment as this will make a huge difference.

Thanks for that I've changed my Horizon Club room to a Valley Wing Deluxe.

Lets see how it compares to the St Regis.

You will be very happy you did that- be sure to check out the evening "happy hour" with excellent free flow complimentary champagne and after dinner cognacs- they have a very good XO which is also complimentary.
The Valley Wing blows the St. Regis so far off the map you won't ever go back. Make sure you enroll in the Golden Circle- you only need two stays a year to remain an active member and there are many benefits and excellent guest recognition.

Nice trips Macarena, welcome to Flyertalk! Please report back from your upcoming trips, I would love to hear up to date news from Soneva Gili.

I don't think anyone else has mentioned a trip to Soneva Kiri yet so it would be great to hear first hand about that trip too!

Next is the Soho House in NYC for New Years

...that is unless we are counting my Auntie's house for Christmas. I'd put her (and my) cuisine up there with any top hotel restaurant. : )

I am headed off to the ever glamorous Mammoth Lakes for a family ski vacation. Should be good fun even if the Westin does not count as 'luxury'.

Hi Trach500, I Can't help you with Denver, But T&C Amanyara perhaps or Parrot Cay? Do you have other options there?

Mykonos is a tough one, theres no great hotels there but if you skip over to Santorini or Crete for a few days theres lots of options there.

Have you chosen or shortlisted hotels for your other trips?
