Quincy Hotel at Orchard

This is pretty outdated in seems of my update *lol* Anyway, it’s better late than never. It was my first time staying at Quincy Hotel and it’s located at the prime area, Orchard. Not many Bruneians are aware of this hotel back then but after my recent post on instagram, Twitter and Facebook, it has create some interests and apparently a few Bruneians have experienced their stay at Quincy Hotel. For your info, Quincy is owned by Far East Hospitality which also runs Oasia Hotel and Albert Court Village Hotel to name a few.

My stay at Quincy was pretty awesome though it was only a night stay. I realised how close it was to Orchard and I could easily walk to Far East Plaza from the hotel. There’s also complimentary cocktails from 6pm to 8pm nightly and perhaps another advantage of staying at Quincy is the complimentary minibar which is replenished daily. If I’m not mistaken, if you get the weekend package, it might inclusive with a trip to the Singapore Flyer. There’s a special promotion if you are interested to stay at Quincy and you can enjoy 15% discount. Click here to find out more.

At the reception and lobby area of Quincy Hotel. I love the design.

The rooms are pretty good and there is no different tier for Quincy. All the rooms are the same tier.

My desk area is always messy as usual… well, you know me 😀

The presentation of the cupboard.. It’s cool that they provide umbrella

Great presentation of the amenities too

Every Saturday Quincy will organise a cupcake session for hotel guests if they are interested

Debbie and I had the chance to make one for ourselves

I did my first cupcake and it was almost a failed effort *lol*

I had the nasi goreng and it’s super spicy. The great thing about staying at Quincy is that all the meals are inclusive in the room rates. Meaning to say that breakfast, lunch and dinner are provided for the guest.

There’s also a free flow of ice-cream for in-house guests of Quincy

Marianne and Fina were fortunate enough to enjoy their stay at Quincy

There’s a pool facility for in-house guests too

A lot of pressure for Andy Garfield playing the role of Peter Parker but he definitely suited the role as compared to Toby Maguire

Three weeks ago, my friend @superAdrianMe had a special screening under Sony and he said that the 3D IMAX was amazing at Shaw Lido Cinemas in Singapore. Last night I caught the Amazing Spider-Man in 3D at the Mall Cineplex and I was quite amazed by the action and the stunts. I had high expectations on Spider-Man anyway ever since Sam Raimi and I have to say this movie is on par with Sam Raimi’s Spider-Man 2.

The storyline is different to that of the original movie Spider-Man and there’s no MJ (Parker’s other love interest) but instead Gwen Stacey played by the lovable Emma Stone. The build up was nicely paced and we get to see both the role of Peter Parker and Spider-Man and Andy Garfield pulled it off.

I’m quite happy with the reboot and no complaints and the critics were quited mixed though it still scored a 71% on Rottentomatoes. Both Spider-Man and Spider-Man 2 scored 89% and 93% respectively. I’m pretty sure almost all movie goers would give this a watch. I was surely entertained and engrossed by the Amazing Spider-Man. Verdict: 8/10
