Second time to stay at The District this year (during pandemics) and I noticed some improvements like new airconditioning and better toiletries (they let go of the mini plastic bottles, which is ok for me)
Checkin:
Transport was seamless, we were coming from another hotel and they communicated ahead so our pick up was on time, all our bagges were handled properly
A bit of a confusion in the room reservation because I had booked this trip months ahead and specified our room preferences and got their confirmation, but the rooms were not available when we arrived. It also took awhile before we could checkin, so we took our lunch first at The Plenary
Lunch
Booked a family style lunch from The Plenary menu -- generous servings! the menu said it was good for 8 pax but the servings were good for even 10 pax. It was a complete spread from starters to fruit platter dessert! We were all happy with this lunch!
Breakfast
Breakfast is included in the room rate, and what's great is we can have it any time of the day. It's plated breakfast with big portions, it can stuff you up to lunch time :)
Rooms
The District Hotel has seen better days, but it's good that they introduced some minor improvements like the airconditioning, and they have cleaner shower room and toilets now too
No complaints on soundproofing -- i guess we don't have noisy neighbors? the blackout curtains also did it's job if you want to sleep in
For family stays, select the rooms at the ground level
Location
Very beach front!! and nice set of palm trees up front so you can set up your mats under a shade. Nice framing for a photo op too!
For those who like other food options, The District is a short walk to D'Mall
The Staff
The best feature of The District. Always friendly, always quick, always helpful. I missed to get all their names so I can commend them one by one here. but I hope they are consistent with this fast and friendly service even during peak days.
