Double Elite-Qualifying Night Credits with DISCOVERY Loyalty Programme - 01 October to 31 December 2018

The DISCOVERY Loyalty program is one of my favourite loyalty programs around - Black (top-tier) members get a double upgrade where available and they also get to enjoy an early check-in and late check-out time of 9:00AM and 6:00PM respectively when they are available. I have grown to love a few hotels under the Global Hotel Alliance in Singapore (e.g. PARKROYAL on Pickering and the Pan Pacific Singapore) and have stayed in them quite often to make the best out of a weekend staycation. The DISCOVERY Loyalty programme is now offering all members the opportunity to earn double night credits toward elite membership status for qualified stays consumed between 01 October 2018 to 31 December 2018.

Hotel Review: Rydges Auckland (King Residence Suite) - Central Hotel in Auckland's CBD

A third daily flight between Singapore and Auckland has been announced earlier this month and while it will only commence on 28 October 2018, the route is well-served by a number of solid products. In the summer months, passengers traveling on Singapore Airlines may consider trying out the excellent Suites and Business Class product on the A380. After staying at the Hilton Auckland for about a week, I moved over to the Rydges Auckland for the weekend as it was considerably more affordable and it is situated right in the middle of the city along Federal Street. Read my review of the King Residence Suite here!

Refreshed Menu (2017) at the Pacific Marketplace (Pan Pacific Singapore)

One of my favourite lunch spots around the City Hall and Promenade area is the Pacific Marketplace at the Pan Pacific Singapore. If you are ever searching for a spot that is comfortable, quiet and still serves delicious food, the Pacific Marketplace could be that dream destination. The menu here has just recently been refreshed to include new items that are inspired by cuisines from Hawaii, Europe and the Middle East (alongside the delicious Asian Delights that they already have).
