We selected the City Bayview Hotel based on the reviews on this very web site and also the fact that it offerred the best prices for a room that could accommodate all our children in the same room as us. I made the reservations through Email and the response was prompt and didn't require a credit card number to be provided for verification. We flew into Langkawi after having spent four days in a good hotel in KL. Bayview Hotel was really different and I thought it was good value for money. The rooms were really spacious and the bathrooms were excellent with a bath tub and a seperate shower place as well. What impressed me the most was the view the room offerred. From the eleventh floor the bay view was just that A Bay View and a truely breathtaking one at that.
On a closer look inside the rooms one could notice certain cable looms not secured properly but other than that the rooms were just perfect for the price. I would definitely recommend this hotel to any one travelling with or without a family and small children.
Food in the Flamingo restaraunt was good and more suited to the predominantly asian guests staying at the hotel. In comparision to the hotel in KL that we had stayed in the Bayview offerred lesser variety in terms of Indian and other continental food. But really it was nothing to be complaining about. Perhaps the sighting on an occassional fly in the restarautn is something that the hotel needs to do something about and I have mentioned that in my feedback too to the hotel administration.
The staff were really friendly , courteous and prompt.
Each morning as I woke up and drew the curtains I would sing a few lines from the song Blue Bayou (slightly modified ofcourse) ".... those sailing boats with their sails afloat....if only I could see...that familiar sunrise through sleepy eyes ....how happy I would be.."
In all a very memorable experience and the kids and the whole family enjoyed it thoroughly and we are definitely planning on going back there some day soon.
