Copthorne Orchid Hotel Penang vs Kompleks Tabung Haji

Sorry guys... Few people have ask me why my blog is not updated. I don't know how to answer that question. Maybe that's why the tagline above is "tHis is noT aUtomatiCalLy UpdaTed". That is the few words explain what this blog is about, not automatically updated. I think it's good if there are  tools that can translate what we are thinking into words on the screen automatically.  Of course there were some tools right now that can translate the things in our head and the tools are this hands with the fingers, this keyboard, eyes monitor, mouse and so on. But then, these tools are not running automatically.

owh. what i'm talking about...

The story is, my family is coming to Penang last year. Actually, it's few weeks ago, during Awal Muharram. They stay here for two nights. The first night, my family and I overnight at Copthorne Orchid Hotel. This hotel located directly on the ocean front and conveniently situated at Tanjung Bunga. My say is, this is an old hotel. Their bed, furniture and other equipment were old. However, the kids still enjoy the swimming pool. My sis and her hubby spent their time, enjoy watching the final soccer SEA Games trough big screen TV at their coffee house and walking along the beach. Means we still enjoying their facilities and environment.

Second night, they supposedly over night at my house, but because of my house is a cute one, my wife and I decided to get some additional room at Kompleks Tabung Haji, Bayan Lepas which is nearby with my house to accommodate them. The rooms at Kompleks Tabung Haji is very nice. We manage to get 3 rooms which is one of that is a  Suite. The rooms were newly furnished but not big except for the suite.  The suite size is as big as my cute home and guess what, the price is as low as RM160 per night. I'm very happy with the rate, suitable for you if you are coming to Penang with family members like say for wedding ceremony and so on. It's end up only my mother, my brother and my younger sister overnight at my house.

Owh, time's up. For any further info, fell free to visit their website at  http://www.millenniumhotels.com/my/copthornepenang/index.html and http://www.tabunghaji.gov.my/th/TH/KompleksBayanLepas.htm.

For the ending, I wish you all a Happy New Year (even though the 1st Jan 2010 is on last 7 days) and may this year become a great one for all of us. Daaaa...

Cope Adventure – Bukit Ampang

I've been here with my sister, attending a course. The place is just a small place. However, i think it can accommodate around 70 people.  Suitable for course like team building, orientation and so on which is scheduled with indoor and outdoor activities. Guest what, we stay in the tents.  Comfortable tents equipped with fan, air conditioner, camp bed, and electric lamp. they also provide umbrella .
