When people think of serviced hotels, they might think of small lodgings, obsolete furniture, and most of all, disappointing aesthetics. Indeed, serviced hotels have become experts in luring guests with their reasonable (and often ridiculously low) prices. Serviced hotels oftentimes promote facilities like free WiFi access and 24- hour services that should be considered more as necessities rather than privileges supported in all hotels. Think of it this way: why would anyone, even those who travel for business purposes, decide to check into a hotel for its fast wireless connection when restaurants, cafes or malls can also provide it?

The rooms provided further bring you to a world of colour, with a touch of bright pink decorating the space. There are two types of room: the Standard Room, complete with facilities like personal safe, a flat- screen TV with satellite channels, work desk, shower, bathroom, slippers and telephone; and the Standard Room with Breakfast, which provides the same facilities including breakfast for two. Guests can additionally request for either a double or twin bed. Unlike other serviced hotels that strictly offer bland facilities, Fave Hotel Kemang provides a swimming pool where guests can swim while overlooking the city’s skyline, dotted with skyscrapers. By the pool is a casual dining restaurant, Lobbyn located on the rooftop where visitors can enjoy dining in the open air and under pretty lanterns.
