Bet very few of you knew that the second largest hotel in the world in terms of room count happens to be First World Hotel.
It has a staggering 6,118 rooms located in two towers, each standing 23 stories high.
We stayed 2 nights at this hotel. The lobby with a tropical rainforest theme was huge and the service was brisk. We did not wait too long to get our keys to our room although there were so many people queueing to check in.
The room is spacious with our queen size bed. You can get information of the room amenities, hotel facilities, photos and room info, check rates and availability and customer ratings with reviews at http://www.agoda.com/asia/malaysia/genting_highlands/first_world_hotel.html. A valuable resource.
For breakfast at First World Cafe, you have a choice of asian and western buffet. It is of pretty reasonable quality though not the best compared to other hotels.
Joining to the hotel at the base is the First World Plaza.
Within it spectacular entertainment awaits you. You will be spoilt with the wide array of food outlets ranging from restaurant to fastfood, game arcades, shops, cineplex, indoor theme park, Starworld casino. The picture on the right shows the indoor theme park. There is a stage that holds weekly performances for members of the public (e.g. magic and musical entertainment). This area is called Time Square similar to the name in New York. Thats why there is Statue of Liberty standing near by. I can't figure out why the Oscar statue is there? When we were there, the Genting Sky Venture was out of order. This simulator allows you to experience weightlessness in space. Since it cost a million dollars to travel to space, this will be a good experience for us.
