We have stayed at this place many times over the last years and it just gets better an better. I will break it down too each vital response. 1 . Picked up from the airport that was prearranged with the hotel we have done this many times an it makes the airport experience a hell of a lot better.Two of our favourite people from the team also came out to the Airport as well. 2. On arrival again more members of the fantastic team taken straight to OUR suite that we have stayed in again many times just love the room layout.The team had some fantastic surprises for us that remains with us but just incredible. 3. We have access to the club not only because of our room but a Diamond member of Accor plus. The club is well appointed with the staff well chosen. 4. Breakfast in Mezz always at the same table always with one of the chefs preparing something special ,one highlight was a Hamburger patty prepared simply the best I have ever eaten , the plates of seafood so good. 5. No 17 Bistro started with a wine dinner the wines well coming from Australia our wines well while not having the tens of decades history are equal or even better sure its lovely to hear the story of a French winery but the truth is in the taste Oh I won't tell you way I went but I think anyone can guess Sorry Frenchies 6. The staff at the Bistro are very attentive I passed my iPhone to a man I have know for many years who must be a frustrated photographer so many shots thank goodness my phone has a 512gb memory But it was thoughtful. 7. We had been invited to test a new idea a High tea with cakes and lots of food prepared by a Chef who really knows his craft Thank you 8. whenever we go out into the city come back too a Gin & Tonic using the local gins that would stand well against any. The team again in the Boudoir bar so good . Also the young Men an women up at the pool deck they make you feel at home again making great drinks and welcoming service. 9. My wife tripped on some pavement about 300 metres from the hotel thankfully she was with a team member Anna who contacted Concierge an as my wife puts it while on the ground saw a member of the Concierge and security man sprinting up the room and grabbed her into a taxi straight back to the hotel, with the hotel doctor and the GM making sure she was OK she was bruised and embarrassed but fine. The people In the hotel we feel like everyone is a part of our Family it is just a home away from home for us. The Evisa system is simple the flights from OZ to Vietnam every day spread between the 3 airlines flying direct. I very close friend of mine was Santa at the hotel on the 29th and earlier in the day at a orphanage which was very moving an hit the heart hard. My friend Santa was moved not only about the Orphanage but the number of kids at the hotel wanting to see Santa he was again touched. We try and go twice a year an will try always to do this. To THE GM MR MINTY thank you
