I stay at Armada Hotel, PJ about once a month for my business trips. Overall, the hotel offers a comfortable stay, good service, and convenient location. The rooms are clean, and the staff are generally helpful.
However, one recurring issue needs urgent attention — the bathroom sink is consistently clogged every time I check in.
I hope the hotel management can look into this matter and fix the sink clogging issue as soon as possible. It would definitely improve the overall guest experience.

One World PJ is one of our favourite hotels, it has always met our expectations whenever we stayed there. The complimentary mini bar is well stock, a pleasant welcome gesture. Room and bathroom are clean and spacious.
The staff from front desk to concierge to housekeeping are wonderful, always courteous, helpful and efficient.

A comfortable place... I stayed at the Modern Terrace. It's great to be able to cook your own meals; the culinary equipment in the room is complete. The hotel has provided everything for us to cook. The pool on the 39th floor is also really nice, with its own privacy. The only downside is that transportation access is a bit difficult at this hotel, and for those taking Grab, it's really hard to find this hotel because it's located further in. You can't get off in front of the hotel lobby; you have to go up from the B3 parking lobby to access the hotel lobby upstairs. Some say this is a new place, that's why it's a bit difficult for people to search for the location. Waze isn't very accurate either... but for those who have stayed here before, it's not difficult to find anymore. Anyway, thank you so much Mossac Hotel... we will come again next time.

I went to a pottery class last week with my besties, and it was such a fun and memorable experience. None of us were experts, but that honestly made it even better we laughed through the messy parts and cheered each other on when something actually turned out decent. The instructor was patient and encouraging, which made the class feel relaxed and welcoming. Getting to create something with our hands while spending quality time together was really special. I’d definitely recommend this class to anyone looking for a creative and fun activity with your besties.

We really enjoyed our 80cm x 80cm tufting experience! The instructors guided us well, and overall, it was a fun and creative activity. Be prepared to spend at least 4 hours if you choose the same package, as it does take time. We only found out afterwards that it’s possible to return on a different day if you can’t complete it in one session—would have been helpful to know earlier. It was definitely tiring, but we’re very happy with the end product.
