Pan Pacific Hotel, KLIA (around lobby only)

While I was waiting for my next flight, I decided to go take a long walk to this 5-star, award-winning, and well-known airport hotel, the Pan Pacific KLIA.

The main entrance. The automatic door is seriously huge. What you don’t see here is OVERWHELMINGLY MANY limousines parked here. Seriously, a lot!

So here goes my pictures, shot at places I can go. Sadly, no rooms to go, sigh…

SDC11402

Lobby area, huge, classy, fantastic, all aimed to catch lasting first impression.

SDC11403

Waiting bench, with awful lot’s of decorations, and a Wall Street’s Journal for free reading too. :)

The check in counter.

It’s very funny that I was constantly greeted by staffs here. When I first step into this hotel, there’s a concierge approached me, smiled and asked, “Good morning sir. How can I help you?”

I was totally bewildered and, despite getting blushed, have to politely clarified that I came just to look around, and remind them I am NOT their guest. (An intruder, maybe? Haha)

The 24-hour all-day-dining restaurant and a deli corner.

A statue chef showing what’s special today.

SDC11405

Nice to see the cake, but awful to see the price. Say, 20 bucks per slice, at least?

SDC11407

Drinks corner. And yes, not the normal Kopi-O you drink at coffee shops, this is 5-star-hotel ok.

SDC11410

Some more decorations, so many of them!

SDC11413

Walking down this twisty stairs to explore more.

SDC11416

Oh, a pretty big ballroom. Hmmm empty, nothing.

SDC11418

A cupboard just to put decorations. There are several such cupboards, each with the same exact decors around this ballroom!

SDC11419

Secluded telephone area. Perfect for privacy.

SDC11422

Endless of such chairs and table with a lamp around the hotel.

SDC11423

Executive office to cater business travellers. Looks cool.

SDC11426

Wow, so many leather armchairs!

I also sneaked into the toilets. Hehehe….

SDC11428

Standing toilets, with a palm tree there to absorb the ammonia. (LOL?!)

SDC11431

Nice toilets, with rough tiles, wooden door again! Wow!

SDC11432

Aren’t these basins looked so classy and elegant? Haha

SDC11436

2 jewellery shops standing side by side to grab customers.

SDC11437

This is the entrance from KLIA. It’s about 15 minutes walk from KLIA terminal building. Yes, quite far, which makes the following make sense…

SDC11438

Buggy cars. I was offered a buggy ride because an unknowing hotel driver thinks I am a guest (again!). I simply had to turn down his offer, though I must say it must be feeling good to sit on it FOR FREE kekeke….. :P

So all those for your reading pleasure. Those were only the tip of the iceberg because there were so much more facilities offered. Never mind, let it be, hopefully one day I can live in there. Haha :)

That’s all from me now. God bless!
