My family and I had an incredible 3-night stay at this hotel, enjoying beautiful and spacious Rajah Brooke Suites. The service was outstanding, especially from our Butler Toto, who went above and beyond to ensure we had a great experience. However, the dining experience at the restaurant for afternoon tea was very disappointing, and I feel it didn't match the expectations for a hotel of this caliber.
