Foreword - sojourn Millennium Hotel

♥ June 23rd, 2010 , Tags : , No Comment

Every time I go in Xiamen, will live in the new millennium sea view, because without him, convenient and affordable. Xiamen Millennium in the bustling Zhongshan Road pedestrian mall and Siming South Road, Commercial Street intersection, go to the ferry pier not far Gulangyu. Hotel standard room price is not high, facilities. Once the Secretary of booking too late, to the hotel the temporary set, front an investigation records, see the old guests, while hotel meeting room the day of tension, immediately try to set the luxury suites, the price is still not up, makes a warm heart.

Millennium is a luxury hotel in Beijing, met up last Christmas lighting ceremony, the new general manager of Beijing Millennium improvements mean very grand plans, in particular, the cigar bar on the top of the high expectations. Hoping to attract high-end quality of service guests. And the annual media event held in Xiamen Millennium, we can arrive on time, in fact it is easily accessible. Subway, bus may arrive. Just stay even after the switch was found difficult to operate the shower. I do not know where the rotation was to work. To see the edge and see the angle of the handle, the switch to open the plan to shift hands of blood I will eventually call for help, I normally half the time on the road, the hotel shall be half of the homes, the occupancy should be a lot of experience, so look through to, or experience is not enough. Asked the help of a waiter, I discovered that people who play calls I am not the one.

Singapore also stayed in the new millennium from the occupancy is close to 23:30, hungry. Hurry call to room. Chan said the phone service to 30 minutes, the helpless unborn empty feeling natural temper, questioning can quickly answer was: This is the basic waiting time to think about that night, no hotel near the door, wait. Mended 20 minutes after the white table cloth dining table stood hand to promote the room, the waiter appears to be psychologically prepared to make the guests, meal preparation time deliberately say. Steaming bowl of wonton noodles, seasoning dishes with two discs, pepper and salt shaker, plus an unknown flower, elegant warm, an increased appetite which was also the feeling of home.

Different Millennium Hotel, different feelings.

Millennium Harbourview Hotel Xiamen is where I'd always stay
whenever I go to the city of Xiamen, just for its convenience and
reasonable price. Located at the crossing of Zhongshan Road
Pedestrian Street and South Siming Road Business Street, Millennium
Harbourview Hotel Xiamen is easily accessible to the ferry of
Gulangyu Island. The standard rooms are quite affordable and well
equipped. Once my secretary had no time to make room reservation,
and I had to do it on my arrival at the hotel. When the hotel
receptionist checked on the guest history and found out that I'ma
regular guest, she managed to book a luxury suite for me at the
normal price, in spite of the room shortage caused by a conference
held at the hotel that day, I was impressed by the hotel's
considerate service.
Grand Millennium Beijing stands for the luxury Millennium Hotel.
Last year my stay at the hotel coincided with the Christmas tree
lighting ceremony where I met the new general manager of the hotel.
He seemed have very high ambition in the transition of the hotel
and especially expected a lot of the top-floor cigar bar, hoping
the hotel could attract more high-end guests with the distinguished
service. On the annual media event co-hosted by Millennium Beijing
and Xiamen, almost everyone made it on time because of the
convenience transport of subway and buses. Yet I found it very
difficult to use the bath simply because I had no idea how to
rotate the switch of angular design, and ended up with one hand cut
and switch still shutdown. I was amused by the fact that although I
spent as much as nearly half my time in hotels and got so familiar
to them that I could probably take hotels as my home, my experience
for hotels was still insufficient to turn on a hotel switch, and I
had to call the service staff for help. And it turned out that I
wasn't the only one to call for guidance, according to the waitress
who saved me out of the trouble.
Another night in Singapore, it was about 11:30 pm when I
checked in the Millennium Hotel. I was hungry and called for room
service at once. The waiter on line told me that food would be
served after 30 minutes. However my empty stomach overcame my
patience, and I pushed him to prepare the food faster. The waiter
informed that 30 minutes was the basic waiting time, which was fair
enough since other restaurants are all closed at this time of the
night, and I had no choice but to wait. Unexpectly, a dining table
with white table cloth was brought to my room in 20 minutes. The
waiter's intention to get the guests mentally prepared by
overestimating the waiting time gave me a pleasant surprise. And
the hot wonton and noodles served together with two side dishes,
two bottles of pepper and salt and a nameless flower, was just
right for my appetite, and made the hotel feel like home to
me.

Different Millennium Hotels, different feelings.
