Nice stay”
Door lock is using card detection but ours is not functioning. Inform receptionist in the morning & she says she will handle this. (btw the female staff got a little bit attitude, but nvm maybe she just nit a morning person lol). An hour later, a male staff (the one that help us to check in) give us a call & give us another room. He apologies because turns out the door detector is out of battery & they forgot to check before we check-in. So we got a largerer room within the same floor. Both room very spacious, very comfortable. Bed is very nice. Got coffee & electric heater. Very comfy. Got lift also. Definitely recommend.

Value for money”
Location is 5 mins walk away from centre point Shopping centre. Has lift. My room is on the 3rd floor so with luggage the lift helps. Mineral and coffee with basic toiletries provided. The front male staff (06march afternoon and night) loves to smile and brings me COMFORT. Just the room haven't been cleaned throughly when I found plastic fork on the floor. The shower is not warm enough. The aircon is cold and nice. For the money I paid, its definitely worth it. Gonna stay here again next time!!

Affordable and good location”
I needed a budget hotel and Cathay Hotel is the perfect hotel. The staff is very friendly especially the receptionist. Honestly, they did ask me to write this review and I decide to write this because no hotel had ever asked me to write one. One thing you have to remember is that this is a budget hotel. Do not complain about the size of the room because u got what u paid for right? But, I do feel satisfied about the bathroom size. Tq for ur service Cathay Hotel. -with love
