This is another view of deluxe room at New World Suites Hotel Bintulu.
My colleague got this room, which is in the corner of New World Hotel.

The pros for this kind of room - huge bathroom and dressing area, complete with walk in wadrobe.

The cons - wifi signal was low... thus guest can't enjoy the free wi-fi often. [actually this applies to most room, unless you open the room door.

Another stay at New World Suites Hotel, Bintulu

After my last visit to New World Suites Hotel in May 2008, I had another round of business trip here in June 2008.




This time around I was placed in a different room with a walk-in-wardrobe.








However, the room felt rather stuffy and small, coz there is a divider separating the wadrobe & entrance area from the bed & study table area.











The toilet was also rather cramp. There was no place in the shower stall to put the shampoo/soap/shower gel bottles, so I had to put them on the floor...which was really annoying.










The room layout was cozy though due to the smaller space.










And I could easily see the TV from the work table.










However, by the 3rd day, I requested to change back to the normal deluxe room at New World, similar to the one I stayed in my first visit there.
It was amazing stepping in to the new room and feeling so open and free...the normal room obviously feels more spacious.

New World Suites Hotel in Bintulu is a newly opened hotel with 175 rooms & suites.
It started operations early 2008.

I stayed here in May 2008 for almost 2 weeks. Had an excellent time at the hotel.
The room's modern & chic furnishing, comfy bed, free wi-fi, flat screen LCD TV, rainfall style shower and full length mirrors... just makes me don't want to leave the hotel room.




Each room is provided with iron & ironing board, as well as kettle & tea-coffee making facilities.

The buffet breakfast had plenty of choices, with its fruit & salad counter, egg counter, hot food, noodles & bread counter.
However, the coffee house's furnishing does not match with the hotel's concept.
The Paddy's Coffee House was intended to be "fine-dining" but with its bulky red chairs makes the whole restaurant seems even more cramped.





There are no swimming pool and the gym is in the plans but not yet constructed at the time of my visit.

However, due to its location above the shopping malls and in the shops area, its very convenient to walk downstairs to buy food. There is even a supermarket in the mall for those needing some snacks or instant noodles.
