SkyCity Hotel
Large room which was spotlessly clean and sound proof. Beautiful bathroom too. Night food markets at the base of the tower with many events happening, topped off with superb celebration of Chinese New Year. Staff were wonderful and you can't beat the location. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
