#ProjekTidoLuar | Kuching | Merdeka Palace Hotel & Suites | A Trip Down On The Glorious Memory Lane
May Peace Be Upon You,
#ProjekTidoLuar continue.. this time we choose Merdeka Palace Hotel & Suites as our short 2D1N staycation. Located in the heart of Kuching in front of the Padang Merdeka, this hotel have special place in my heart as i was the former team back in 1999 until 2007. Never checked - in as customer [except on my first year working, they have the program to feel like a guest] so officially this is my first time.
15 to 20 minutes drive from Kuching International Airport [depends on traffic], you can get Grab / MyCar for less than RM15.

Since the very first time i entered this hotel back in 1999 - i fall in love with the lobby, the warm and luxury with four grand pillars, spiral stairs and grand piano on the side. Really beautiful especially at night. I remember all that vividly and on 10 November 2018... years after that, i fall in love again.

The room registration is easy and straightforward, either walk-in or like ours, booked under Expedia - just give your identity card and receptionist will process from there.
The check in time is at 1400Hours | Check out is 1200Hours. Refundable deposit needed at RM100 per room. Unless if you already fully-paid like mine - no deposit required.
