October 13, 2017Genting Highlands is one of the most popular spot for Malaysian to indulge in a short getaway. Why?
- Short drive distance from KL City Centre
- Cold weather, especially when the weather in KL is so hot
- Full of entertainment 24/7
Hotel On The Park Overview
A newly added name to the vicinity of Genting Highlands, formerly known as Theme Park Hotel, suitable for a comfortable stay for small family.The entrance is definitely a statement, fun, colorful and hipster.
There are 2 types of bedroom available, Quads and Sixers, both able to accommodate up to maximum 4 or 6 persons respectively.
With only 271 rooms in total, Hotel On The Park is definitely more quiet and less crowded compared to First World Hotel.
Where to Park Your Vehicle?
There are no parking spaces available in the building itself, I parked my car at Resort Hotel just across the road, which is the nearest one.
Parking was free of charged during my visit 2 weeks back, I heard parking charges will be imposed from October onward, but parking is FREE for selected Genting Reward Card members.
Checking-in
Security definitely enhanced, guests need to flash their card in the lift and only allowed to go to the designated floor.Another fun fact, room number is written on the floor of each room, so you definitely won't miss it even you are on your phone. 😜
My Quad Room
I am in love with the raised floor below the bedding, it gave me the feeling of sleeping on tatami, and I can throw everything on the floor. LOL
Everything in the room is so funky, space saving and smartly designed.
The room was compact, but fret not, you can store your baggage underneath the bedding. Smart right?
Safe box is also provided, it is underneath the bedding too!
All electrical switch next to the bed, now I can scroll on my phone even it is charging and I can go to sleep in my warm bed without having to put my feet on the cold floor, and walk over to the door to switch off the light.
A basic mini bar is available too, you can chill your drink or help yourself with some coffee and tea pack provided by the hotel.
The modern yet vintage phone. Love!
Since Quad Room is for 4 persons, so 4 indoor slippers are provided. I never seen indoor slippers for kids before, how thoughtful is this huh?
Shower Area
Shower room and toilet was separated, so need not to worry about the waiting time to use the washroom.Built-in hair dryer and other basic toiletries also provided. I like all the small details and courtesy from hotels.
I have no idea why I wanna emphasis on this, but don't you think the shower head is very high tech?
View
The evening view is definitely better on my side. You want to know how it feels to be above the cloud? Stay here and you will know.I can even see Talking Garden right below my room. I wish my stay was longer so I can spend some time linger around the garden.
This is the view I woke up to, not cloudy at all and clear blue sky.
I can even see KLCC when I zoom in. (psst, this is merely taken from my phone!)
Let me know how you think about this hotel if you stayed here before?
