Impiana Hotel, KLCC



It was gloomy Sunday, well Sunday blues in common term. The feeling was mixture of laziness and summoning the momentum after almost a week away from office. While my mind was still wandering elsewhere other than the tasks on the table, my boss approached me
'Juli, esok you join meeting kt KL tu yer?'
I was caught off guard at the reminder, not because I wasn't aware of the invitation. I realized that I was not only having an issue with the Sunday blues, but also the sense of time. Poor me!
'Meeting? Bukan 31hb rabu ni ker?'

The rest of the day was a hectic life for me to prepare a few reports and documents to be brought to the meeting, which has spoiled my Sunday blues. 

Taking the last flight to KL with MAS, I used KLIA express from KLIA to go to KL Sentral. It took almost half an hour to reach KL Sentral. I was getting tired by the weight of my compact backpack and the rush travelling. It has been a while I didn't use ERL service. When I saw a notice on the availability of 4G wifi
inside the ERL, I was over the moon!And the thinking of exhaustion dissapeared.





This was the first time my stay at Impiana Hotel, KLCC. Hj Big Boss kept on insisting to us to stay in hotels around KLCC which provides cheaper rate such as Impiana, and Mandarin Oriental is a no-no. Ok bos! Impiana it is!









Despite the fatigue from the entire trip to go to the hotel, I was elated by the sight of the deluxe ambience. But unpleasant part of the hotel service was the guest service itself. I called the guest service to request for chili sauce to eat with KFC that I brought from KL Sentral. I waited until 15 minutes. If it is in any otther hotels, the request was supposed to be entertained by then. No one turned up, until I finished the KFC itself without my requested chili sauce. OK fine, but not quite. 


I called again the guest service requesting a paper bag to put my stuff which have overloaded my backpack. Mind you, normally a paper bag is provided to the hotel guest as complimentary. But I was a little taken aback when the hotel staff handed me a folded paper bag with PARKSON sticker was still pasted on it. I would really appreciate it if they did some efforts to remove the PARKSON tape from the paper bag, if only they didn't provide a complimentary paper bag for the guests. 




Toiletries


The next day, I had a breakfast which came together in package with the stay. The restaurant was quiet, unlike other hotels around KLCC which were so crowded in the morning. And there were varieties of food selections to enjoy. I was having great breakfast while killing the time before going off to KLCC. =) 



Free scrumptious omelette is only available at hotels *wink*
The interior of the restaurant
In overall, the interior design of the hotel is elegant, more than I expected (for a cheaper rate). Except for a little glitches from the hotel services, the deep sleep that I had in the night concluded my satisfactory stay.
