At Mandarin Oriental

I am now at Mandarin Oriental for 1 night. Will meet up with a client later this morning and also took some pictures of scenic kolam, since Deepavali is just around the corner. Business is fine so far but it can still be improved with more drivers in our team of workers. Right now, we are short of drivers to bring the workers all over Kuala Lumpur for the different projects.

A night at Mandarin Oriental is $1,200, but with the Elite membership with discount vouchers, we pay $696 net with taxes total. It is just next door to KLCC where I had dinner and lunch. KLCC is the premier shopping centre right in the heart of Kuala Lumpur that carries branded labels like Salvatore Ferragamo, Gucci, Tods, Prada, and so much more.

What I like about Mandarin Oriental is its exclusivity and prestige. It also has very cosy bed and furnishings. You will be given complimentary cookies, plain milk and a bar of chocolate sprinkled with dried fruits like peaches, raisin, orange peels, nuts, cherries and such. There is also the welcome basket of fruits to whet your appetite for main course dinner downstairs on the second floor, at a Chinese restaurant.

The japanese restaurant is located on the basement, beside the car park. As members of the Elite club, you get complimentary meal for 2 at Wasabi Restaurant, the only Japanese restaurant in Mandarin Oriental. I think, I shall renew the membership for next year.
