5th Wedding Anniversary - Pan Pacific Hotel Staycation [Part II]

Continue from Part I here

After settling down, its around 4pm which is way passed my lunch! But due to a hungry stomach, we have to get some food. Off to Marina Sq which is downstairs. so so so near.. walked around aimlessly looking for food. Ended up with Mac. Pack back to the hotel to have it.

After brunch, rested awhile, followed by some sunset pic as below..


From our hotel room


From the lift

As we have booked buffet at edge at Pan Pac, we headed down for our sumptuous dinner!

Edge Food theatre


lil gem excited!


Our reserved seats. As the seats are at the middle and we have a pram, we requested for a changed of table to somewhere corner, so that the lil one can slp/play/fuss/ or wadeva she likes to do so not to disturb the other guests.


these are some of the food we ate.
Ranging from Chinese, to western, to malay, to indian and fusion food!
Very worth the price if you go on a hungry stomach and a not so fussy baby!

I would go again if the price isnt that steep, the baby with a caretaker and a hungry stomach!

After dinner both of us were so bloated from all the mac-dees and buffet. Decided to return to the room to clean baby up and rest for the night.


After sunset view


MBS!!

What greeted us was this lil box.. when we reached our room..


ta-dah~~ Happy Anniversary! Thanks Pan Pac for being so nice to give us a cake on our anniversary!
As we were still bloated from the mac-dees and buffet, we decide to leave for breakfast~
So, off we went to wash up, for the baby, ourselves and the bed is calling out to us!

- Next Morning -



Yes, was greeted with the rain splattering..
bb gem was coping well despite is was her first stay-outside trip. (exclude her hospital stay when she was a newborn!) whereas mummy is deprieve of sleep.. worried mummy is worried on baby not able to cope and stayed up the whole night. Daddy was snoring away as usual.

And again, after washing up, we headed down for breakfast! As it was like so so so early, we only have a choice of staying in the hotel for breakfast. all we gonna have again is buffet from Edge.



Not a fantastic breakfast.. But its pricey!

Drop by the pool for some sunlight~

Took out baby's socks and pants to let her have a kick at the water!
But totally not interested.. so we walk around instead.


Beautiful place but cant captured all of us in the pic..


a Fam pic with the see thru glass lift!
Yes, suntec behind us!


lil gem making full use of the bed before we leave the hotel!
Had a bathtub for hub and baby first den its me turn!
Soak myself for sometime and had a nice warm shower and off we checked out at 12noon!

bb gem cried like mad when we were about to leave.. might be due to its too comfy there and staffs there tried to help me out but failed! well.. loved the services that they offered. thanks!

Hope to get another staycation real soon! (hopefully someone could sponsor us!)
Any baby friendly hotel besides Pan Pac?

That ends my staycation and a nice wedding anniversary with hub and baby gem!

5th Wedding Anniversary - Pan Pacific Hotel Staycation [Part I]

Its a start of a new week after a long weekends.
Friday is Vesak day which is also our 5th year Wedding anniversary. 
This year we have our gem with us to celebrate the important day of our lifes. 
A day 5yrs ago which we sign our long term contract to each other.
To make this year a special celebration, hub decided to book a staycation for us since, lil gem is still too young to go overseas. So its a 2D1N staycation in Singapore Hotel.. 
Woke up in the morning feeling a lil excited as it's my first time to a staycation. Having jitters while time is ticking away but all hub said was, we are still in Singapore what! Althou we are in Singapore, but its different! Well, guys.. 

Left home around 2pm as the hotel requires us to check in after 3pm.
Brought along baby stroller and a small luggage for our items.

Krystal is dozing off .. together with the luggage..

Not knowing the exact location of the hotel, hub uses the GPS but the jam was so terrible at certain part of Singapore that delayed our time. Upon reaching the hotel, we realised, its at MArina Square and the hassle of jamming at those places really make us pissed off.


Doing a check in to our room.. While waiting, we are served cocktails! such nice service at this 5* hotel!
*thumps up*
Earlier in the day, I have emailed the hotel telling them that we needed a baby cot and a baby tub. So they suggested us to upgrade our room to a bigger suite for the baby cot! Hub upgraded the room and added another SGD70 (excluding tax) into the bill.
Was informed that the current room was a smoking room which turns us totally off but to upgrade it.

The upgraded room was at the 25th floor with a astonishing view as claimed by the officer.
Up we go after getting the hotel "keys" we went up~

In the lift we go~ beautiful scene from the lift..

From the lift, we saw the pool!


the hotel "keys"


4D anyone?

As we opened the doors, the magnificent view of the room makes our jaws drop.
Never did we expect Singapore hotel to be so cozy!

King Size bed!

Tats a mini bar with an office table

SEE-THRU Toilet!! OMG!!

Bottle of Oxygened water.

In the SEE-Thru toilet, we have a bathtub, a sink....

a toilet, and a shower area!

And on the sink, we have untidy towels, a few boxes of necessity, tissue and soap..


at the mini bar, we have an expresso coffee maker and a mini fridge~
the Fridge is unique to me, as it was the first time i saw this kinda billing system. the items will be billed to the hotel bill when the item is taken out within 30sec. how high-tech!

As said, upon request, I got the baby cot and together with the cot, they even provide us with baby bath from Kodomo!

tats my lil gem awake!

with a nice scenery, we had to take a pic!
Happy Anniversary my dear!

to be continued......
