Review on The Westin Kuala Lumpur

Malaysia is indeed a beautiful country, but as far as hospitality and service are concerned, there can be significant variations deoending on where you go. The Westin in Kuala Lumpur (Bukit Bitang) is a hotel that I can wholeheartedly recommend for outstanding service and amazing hospitality. I would like to mention staff such as Radha in the Cafe/Buffet area who remembered how I (and my wife and 2 other friends) enjoyed their coffee (without even asking for one first thing in the morning).
Halim (Head Chef) took absolute delight in finding out exactly how we liked our food and found ways to escalate our taste buds to never visited before highs.
Emmy (Gym) was full of enthusiasm in helping every one of my workouts be an amazing result - even if it was to create room for the amazing breakfast buffet:). Lastly, I would like to mention another chef (name here), who only served us the tastiest omlettes and eggs we had ever eaten. When in KL, please don't overlook this shining jewel, The Westin - especially if you are foodies like we are. We are definitely coming back. Highly recommended!

Cambria Hotels Named A Top Brand For Business Travelers

Cambria Hotels, an upscale brand franchised by Choice Hotels International, Inc. (CHH), has been recognized by corporate travel buyers as a leading upscale brand, according to the Business Travel News' 2019 Hotel Brands Survey. The Cambria brand placed first in seven of 13 categories — the most of any upscale brand. This accolade follows Cambria Hotels' recent ranking as one of only two brands in the highest tier for guest satisfaction among upscale brands in the J.D. Power 2019 North America Hotel Guest Satisfaction Index.

Cambria meets the demand of today's time-starved, modern business travelers with hotels in central locations near corporations, convention centers and city attractions," said Janis Cannon, senior vice president, upscale brands, Choice Hotels. "Guests truly love and value the brand, and we can't wait for even more travelers to experience Cambria Hotels as we fast approach 50 open hotels from coast to coast."

Robert McDowell, chief commercial officer, Choice Hotels, added: "Cambria's recent honors show that business travelers and corporate travel buyers recognize the value proposition of Choice Hotels and the purpose-built Cambria brand. Choice's years of strategic investments in our brands, technology and loyalty program were made with one goal in mind: to provide everything today's business travelers want and need to make their lives easier on the road."

Double Your Extras rewards: Each qualifying stay that includes at least one weeknight — any Sunday through Thursday night — comes with double the Your Extras rewards. Members can choose to earn twice the credit to spend at Starbucks, Amazon or Uber or select twice the Choice Privileges points or airline miles.

Diamond Elite Status Jump: Business travelers who stay at the Cambria brand just once — and who participate in other hotel loyalty programs — are eligible to have their status upgraded to Diamond Elite. In addition to coming with extra perks, including a 50% elite point bonus, complimentary room upgrades, and an elite welcome gift or bonus points at participating U.S. hotels, Diamond Elite status is another way Choice is recognizing corporate travelers for their business. Guests must have a qualifying stay on Sept. 9, 2019, or after to be eligible for Diamond Elite Status Jump (and must not have had their status previously upgraded).

We Were the Lucky Ones: A Novel

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER

Inspired by the incredible true story of one Jewish family separated at the start of World War II, determined to survive—and to reunite—We Were the Lucky Ones is a tribute to the triumph of hope and love against all odds
 
“Love in the face of global adversity? It couldn't be more timely.” —Glamour
 
It is the spring of 1939 and three generations of the Kurc family are doing their best to live normal lives, even as the shadow of war grows closer. The talk around the family Seder table is of new babies and budding romance, not of the increasing hardships threatening Jews in their hometown of Radom, Poland. But soon the horrors overtaking Europe will become inescapable and the Kurcs will be flung to the far corners of the world, each desperately trying to navigate his or her own path to safety. 
 
As one sibling is forced into exile, another attempts to flee the continent, while others struggle to escape certain death, either by working grueling hours on empty stomachs in the factories of the ghetto or by hiding as gentiles in plain sight. Driven by an unwavering will to survive and by the fear that they may never see one another again, the Kurcs must rely on hope, ingenuity, and inner strength to persevere. 
 
An extraordinary, propulsive novel, We Were the Lucky Ones demonstrates how in the face of the twentieth century’s darkest moment, the human spirit can endure and even thrive.
