This garish Malaysia Genting Hotel claims to be the greatest in the world, but bigger doesn’t always mean better. Guests need to produced with tiny rooms, lackluster service, and an interminable check-in process - the guest rooms are really only sleeping areas for Genting Highlands visitors who come for your crisp mountain air as well as the First World Plaza downstairs.
You know the First World Hotel's a casino hotel the moment you notice the building. Loud primary colors cover the hotel's two towers, and a bright neon assembly stands on the lobby entrance.Check-in is unreasonably long - incoming guests are handed a ticket queuing them for 2 to 5 hours' wait for being checked in. Lost reservations and room mix-ups are known to happen, and the surly attitude of a typical front desk people doesn't help the situation very much.
First World Hotel is billed when the "world's largest hotel", and with 6,200 rooms it's definitely in contention. To get a number of rooms from one hotel, though, the designers had the need to get the rooms really small, with the smallest at 207 square feet in size.
Rooms below "superior deluxe" not have the mini-bar, no hair dryer, and no room service. "Superior deluxe" rooms and "World Club" rooms, however, get the usual hotel accoutrements (an even bigger TV, free coffee, as well as a room fridge). The rooms do not have any air-conditioning, since the Genting air is chilly enough.
This is really not something that you should grumble about, however, if one is there solely to enjoy Genting Highlands' gaming and entertainment diversions.
Guests may appear the fualt of the First World Hotel lobby level to enter First World Plaza - a 500,000-square-foot store and indoor theme park with restaurants, shops, skydiving simulator, bowling center, and a Ripley's Shockingly! Museum.
The Starworld casino within a Plaza is usually a smaller element of the Casino de Genting nearby, open to Malaysian Chinese and foreign non-Muslim guests. Ethnic Malays are forbidden by law from gambling, although they're unengaged to relish other facilities in Genting. For More Info, visit Genting Hotel Booking Website.
