I recently visited St. Giles Southkey and would like to provide feedback on breakfast and housekeeping. The breakfast spread is good, with a wide variety maintained even during busy periods. However, the reserved table tag system relies heavily on staff observation, which can cause confusion. During my visit, I stepped away for a second round of food, and my table was cleared and taken by another guest. Staff were unsure who had cleared it, and I was eventually reseated at a larger table despite a queue outside. A dual-tag system indicating occupied vs available tables could prevent this. Another issue is housekeeping entering the room despite the “Do Not Disturb” sign being displayed and before check-out time. While preparing rooms is understandable, strict adherence to DND signage is essential to maintain guest privacy. In summary, while the hotel provides a good breakfast and basic facilities, clearer table management during breakfast and strict observance of DND signs would improve the guest experience and influence whether guests consider staying here in the future.

Nice room and nice access to business lounge - so we had our breakfast & dinner there. The food is really nice in our opinion. We tried breakfast at Causeway Cafe L6 once. Its medium entry level and very crowded. Not really suitable if travelling with young babies. We stayed in the suite but the toilet has a persistent sewer smell, this is probably bad plumbing design.

Convenient location but service from hotel is easily none. You can call the hotel hotline but no one is going to pickup the call. Ask for a service and it takes hours. Other than good location of this hotel, not sure what is the plus point.

Spacious for a King room. Overlooking greenery, beautiful view. Needs to pay attention to maintenance to little details but overall clean and convenient as mall is attached. It took abot 15 minutes by Grab from JB Sentral.

Room was clean, check-in and out was quick and direct connection to the mall. We saw king bed in the description of the twin room but when we were checking-in the counter staff told us we've booked twin bed but we couldn't as we have a baby who we needed to have sleep in between. The staff very kindly help us arrange.

Yes. The front desk at arrival did a magnificent job by arranging for connecting rooms for our family. However, while checking out, our family had unexpectedly felt unwell and we requested the customer service for extension. We were only given half an hour grace instead of an hour. While i asked for her name, we were rudely told its FO, then Puteri. I thought its rude to assume guests know your acronym and it was clear we asked for name. While i understand the hotel can be fully booked but we had our circumstances. Hope the hotel can train the staff to show compassion and grace when situation arose.
