Staycation - DoubleTree by Hilton Johor Bahru

Johor Bahru, our closest neighbour across the river has always been known as "dirty" and "dangerous" but to be honest it can be pretty enjoyable if you know where to go and what to do.
My wife and I visit Johor Bahru pretty often to watch movies, do our nails and even our hair. For the obvious reason because it's cheaper. When I 1st started visiting JB almost 2 years ago, the exchange rate was $2.34 and now it is actually $2.55! 

Double Tree by Hilton

As often as I visit JB, it's actually the first time I went to Johor Bahru for a stay over vacation. And I'm telling you, it does not feels like the "dangerous and dirty" Johor Bahru at all! 


Super pretty or what? Actually this is not my 1st experience with Double Tree by Hilton. My 1st experience was actually with Double Tree By Hilton KL during OCBC Cycle. I didn't really remember the name because I'm never the attentive one but something reminded me. 


Their signature cookie! And of course, that friendly smile. :D 


The hotel was really clean and really nice and everyone was so friendly. After staying there for just a few days almost everyone of them could recognised us. That friendly human touch was really appreciated! 

The cosy room!

My sexy wife!
Who Stole The Cookie? 

I was there not just to have fun and slack around but I was there to help solve the mysterious case of the missing cookie. I've visited many hotels as well as part of many hotel media tours but this is actually the 1st time that we are doing it with a game. 

Typical hotel tours will bring you around the hotels and we will go "ya dar ya dar, this is this, that is this and this is how cool this place is" but the good people from Dbl Tree by Hilton actually created a fun game for us. Like they always say, there is no way better way to learn than exploring it yourself! 

So the games comes in a few stations a little like the popular korean #RunningMan Tv Show which needed us to complete different games in order to collect clues for the next station. 


 Me using the gym as part of the game. The best part of this gym that it is actually 24hours!

Me picking up a girl at the bar. :x

Their bar was really nice and it's a full bar within the hotel. Not like a small bar top and calling it a bar.

Me playing golf in the hotel like a boss. Hole in one yo!


And business centre for business man and business conferences are available too!

Funny story: there's a mission that we were needed to write a post card for our friends back at home. I did one for my dog brover and guess what?

I didn't know we need to write the address on the card itself. I thought I will be given an envelop. #Fail.

One of my favourite picture! And yes, very nice milk shake.


And yeah, my wife went with me to this trip too!

Sorry, this is also part of the game. Not like i made this for my wife. haha.

Me 60secs of presentation. Pretty impressive storyline but....

of course, with me in the team.. we got 1st.... runner up.. And there's only 2 teams.. So.. erm.. you get the drift. LOL.

And now everyone!

After a long day of fun and activities we really didn't want to go anywhere else in the next morning and we had our in room dining. Best thing ever! Impressive display and good food at your door step. Wrong, on your bed! SHIOKKKK! 

#HappyWifeHappyLife
So I hope this post gives you a good idea on where to stay in JB because I actually have a friend who stayed at hilton after seeing my post of DblTree on Instagram!! And now you know JB is not that scary or dirty right!!

P.S. So with me at the event was also many many chio bu.

No proper storyline to link it up but I just wanted to upload this. LOL.
