The Centrepoint Hotel - Brunei

-

The Centrepoint Hotel is located in the Gadong part of Bandar Seri Begawan. It's just 4 minutes (300m) walking distance to The Mall and 10 minutes (800m) walking distance to Gadong Night Market. We stayed 1 night in a deluxe room that comes with a king size bed, a bolster, working desk, fuzzy TV with limited channels, complimentary internet access (slow internet speed), in-room safe, disposable slippers, mini fridge, coffee or tea making facilities, complimentary 2 bottles of drinking water, radio, hair dryer, basic toiletries and an old type of air conditioning wall controller (with fixed fan speed).

Room is spacious but looks old. Apart from that, room is dimly lit with an unpleasant musty smell. One of the bedside power plug is not working. Hence I was unable to on the bedside reading light causing the room even darker. Pillow is comfy, however bed has a super bouncy feel. Bathroom looks old with a bathtub. Normal water pressure and luckily water is hot enough. Slow draining sink and shower head handle starts to chip and peel. Besides that, shower curtain rod is rusty.

Buffet breakfast starts from 6.30am to 10am. Hotel facilities include swimming pool, gym and tennis court.

Check in time: 2pm
Check out time: 12pm

Room rate - RM 327 including breakfast for 2 person

We had planned to check out of the hotel at 12pm and board a train to Dongguan at 1pm to meet with one of Ben's potential supplier. However, the plan was cancelled as the supplier was unable to make it and Ben only notified us after we checked out of the hotel at 12pm. In the end, we did nothing for a half day in Guangzhou and missed the opportunity to see his supplier in Dongguan. Our initial plan was to meet with his supplier in Dongguan and then take the train to Shenzhen. Since the plan didn't work out, we purchased a last-minute ticket from  Guangzhou East Railway Station to Shenzhen Station (Price - RM 65.74 per person for first-class seat). We had our lunch together with Ben at  Chuangshan Restaurant, which is located opposite  Guangzhou East Railway Station . I had goose with roasted pork, while my partner had chicken with BBQ pork. Roasted pork is tasty and goose is flavourful but has rubbery skin. Ben's friend joined us for lunch as well. However, we have to leave
