I got to stay overnight with my family at Maxims Hotel in Resorts World last month when Samsung Philippines asked me to review the Samsung Smart TV ES8000. Maxims Hotel is an all-suite luxury hotel by the Genting Group. It’s supposedly rated 6 stars.
Anyway, this is the hallway leading to our room.
We stayed at a Maxims Suite. It costs P15,800 a night and it’s the most basic room you can get in this hotel. If you’re a Resorts World Gold or Platinum cardholder, you get a big discount. I was surprised by the welcome note which greeted me when I went into the room.
There was even a welcome bowl of fruits.
Our suite was equipped with two double beds which is perfect for a family of two adults and two kids. Alternatively, you can opt for one king-sized bed.
There’s a study and a couch with a table you can use to dine.
The study table has an electric pot you can use to make coffee or tea.
There’s also a console you can use to call for butler service, order room service, make calls, etc.
It’s a pretty big room.
This was the view from our window.
The closet had bath robes, bedroom slippers, hangers, and an ironing board with an iron.
The bathroom is equally expansive. The toilet area is enclosed in its very own room.
A separate shower area is located beside the toilet.
There are two sinks and a vanity area.
There’s a complete set of toiletries — everything from mouthwash to loofahs.
There’s a bath tub which comes with a container of peach-scented bath salts.
Each overnight stay includes buffet breakfast for two.
There’s a good selection of the usual breakfast items — crispy bacon, sweet ham, French Toast, fruits, potato wedges…
There was even sushi and kimchi!
Congee and taho (no photo) too!
After breakfast we decided to go swimming. Luxurious cabanas like this surround the pool area.
The swimming pool is great! Half of it is pretty shallow so my 7-year old daughter could actually walk to the middle. The other half is deep, even I couldn’t reach the floor. Since it was a sunny day, the water was quite warm.
The service in this hotel is outstanding. A butler will knock on your door before bedtime with a trolley on hand to check if you need anything — bottled water, toothbrushes, soap, toilet paper, etc. at no extra charge! I actually left a pair of Levi’s jeans in the room and realized it when we were already home. I promptly called the hotel and they informed me that my jeans were in the laundry. They told me that they would call or text me when it was ready for pick-up and they did.
All in all, we had a lovely time at Maxims Hotel. Thank you Samsung Philippines for the experience which was of course highlighted by the state-of-the-art
Samsung Smart TV ES8000!
