The family is always more excited when it comes to my father's and sister's birthday. Because their special days fall on the same month and only 2 weeks apart, it is one of the months that we look forward to in the year because their birthday bash would be combined and a party-worthy one. When we heard that Genting has reincarnated one of its hotels into a spanking funky hotel, we decided to make their birthday celebration literally a cool one!

Although just an hour away from Kuala Lumpur, Genting never fails to make me feel like I am in another country. In the cable car especially, I am awed by its scenery again and again. For a moment, those ethereal mist managed to hoodwink
me the whole family to thinking that we were in Switzerland! Hahaha how we wished.

Being Resorts World Genting's first hotel, the Theme Park hotel has contributed to the propagation of the many other hotels at the peak. Resorts World Genting gives no chance for its longest established hotel to be a passe among its stellar and newer assets. In July 2017, the Theme Park Hotel has been relaunched into the spanking new Hotel on the Park, accommodating mainly families and visitors in groups, in preparation for the opening of the very anticipated Fox Theme Park!

If the hotel was a human, I would definitely hire the plastic surgeon who did its make over! There was no sign of old-age at the Hotel on the Park. In fact, it is saturated boisterous energy and hints of fun at every corner. At the lobby itself, check out their trick mirror, giant bench and stacks of huge cups.

We already had an expectation of what the room would make us feel but when we stepped into the room, the real thing exceeded it. Sorry to bust the surprise for you but this is what the room looks like. The sight the drawings on the blinds and wall will already make children feel like the hotel is designed for them. And for adults, welcome to la la land!

| Our room comfortable for 6 people! |

 |
| Artsy room that appeals to anyone ready to have fun! |
Despite the playful interior, there are some really serious matters being taken care of in the hotel. There is a fully functional safety box in every room, deep compartments big enough to stow away your bulky luggage, toiletries enough for everyone (six people for our room), thick towels and anti-slip slippers for all.

| Safety box to keep your valuables locked away |
 |
| Space saving compartments to substitute the conventional cupboard |
 |
| Happy feet for all |
Being the first hotel build in Genting, it is seated at a vantage location that overlooks the low lands. To me, the magnificent view is worth the whole stay. In the future, Fox Theme Park better be another reason! No photograph can do justice to the scenery we have from our room. The night view is even more spell-binding. I found myself letting the glowing lights lull me to sleep.

| Breathtaking scenery overlooking the English Garden and even KL! |

Morning was not easy for us that Sunday. I did not know drugs can come in the form of a bed! We slept so well because the air is naturally conditioned and indisputably the best medicine from the malaise of daily work. But Chin Swee Temple was waiting so we had some incentive to resist sleeping in. Breakfast at Eatopia was ready at 9pm. The grab-and-go breakfast was a huge packet of yummy chicken curry nasi lemak, a pastry and a can of beverage. Definitely was fueled up to kick-start the day!
