Mandarin Oriental Free Stay

Wary of the traffic jams and balik kampung rush, but mostly because sick of travelling in hot weather, we opted for a Kuala Lumpur City Centre getaway.....at

MANDARIN ORIENTAL!!!

Being an Elite Club member, I made use of the free night's stay

Awesome Orchid centrepiece at the foyer

deluxe city view room

everywhere we go we bring our youngest daughter, the only one of the three children who will still tag along

 

Unfortunately, for a 5 star hotel, you have to pay 80 ringgit for wifi, so he went home to get his Wimax PI

then  the three of us could go online

Soon it was time for tea...

guess who joined us? She loved the twin towers view!

At night we dressed up for dinner at Biba's Cafe, we paid for the little girl, half price and 10 percent off for club member

Biba's....very spacious and leisurely dining

the most colourful kueh lapis

then we went to Suria KLCC for window shopping

and the KLCC park where tourists asked Jenn to take photos for them

so nice, can take time off to lepak

as did the rest of the hoi polloi

we wanted to catch a movie but the interesting ones were all 18SX and 13PG!

so we went back to the hotel

go back to room to go online lor

extra free bed for kiddo

no, she is not revising for UPSR, she is reading up on VAMPIRES

OneKL at night

supposed to be romantic getaway for us,but nvm, lou foo lou chai already, (I had even bought a new animal print nightie!)

Next morning we went to the KLCC park again

did touristy stuff like take photos

dolphin!

we forgot our jogging shoes (I brought all stilettoes and platforms!)

His new camera has fantastic zoom

 then I had to go for my spa massage appointment at 10

walked across from Aseana boutique and restaurant belonging to Farah Khan

the spa reception

I am going to do up my house like this

my favourite spa drink: hot ginger and hot towel

time to get down to business...I opted for aromatherapy massage

with different essence to choose from: jasmine, ylang ylang, lavender and I forgot the last one

my robe

while i spa-ed, they lolled about at the pool

infinity pool is now de rigeur

this Korean girl looks after at least three kids before she went to the edge of the pool to admire the view with her boyfriend

 No, she is not "ulangkaji -ing"  for UPSR! She is re-reading Twilight!

Our shoes! 3 quarters are mine! I do not believe in travelling light.

so sad, time to go home.

OneKL again, so near to Mandarin Oriental.  You are welcome to stay at MO because I still have half price vouchers, free Japanese dinners and free afternoon tea! Any takers????
