Was browsing the hilton web site for info on the new hotel and found this:
quote:Decorated in a modern Zen-Style, open bathroom design and very high quality/unique finishing, 42'' Plasma TV screen, .all bathrooms have a TV

Are hotels doing this now??? Ive never seen it before!

The hotel opens on 22 September and I'll be in KL from 25th for about a week - I might be forced to stay a night and file a stay report :)

I dont think you'll get a plasma in the bathroom!
probably in the main room!
I've stayed in a hotel in Canada that has a 10" Sony portable in the bathroom..
That was quite usefull as you could watch TV from the Jacuzzi!

Dont drop the remote in the bath though!

Gonna book it for a couple of nights towards end Septermber!

And they're doing triple miles/points until 15th Feb (if anyone needs another incentive!)

Don't know why I didn't pick that bit up as I'm a member of HHonors anyway but it'll do me nicely!

Thanks

I think you have to book the 'triple miles' rate, which is in the specials section of the hotel site. The prices seem to be a bit cheaper than standard and include breakfast. Will look forward to hearing what you think of it.

No problem - just remembered why I didn't pick up on the triple miles offer, VS are not listed as a participating airline!

I'll ask when I check in (27/9) if VS qualify, if not I'll use my BA card [:0]

Cheers,

Thanks Michael - it looks very flash!

I'll post when I get there to advise if VS are taking part in the triple miles offer - with the number of people thinking of doing the run, 3k miles per stay (if available) is a decent bonus :D

I find a good trick is to alternate hotels so you get HH points/miles more than once - downside is carting luggage back and forth so don't do it too often.
