"one day i slowly floated away" is the name and concept of room 211 at New Majestic Hotel designed by artist, Safaruddin Abdul Hamid.
"One Day I Slowly Floated Away is inspired by the carefree, languid nature of stray cats in the city area, the artist seeks to enthuse guests in the room to unwind and just take it easy."
In this "one day i slowly floated away" album, you will find images in room 211. This "Premium Garden" room was the room that we have booked and chosen to stay in. Though earlier on the day of our wedding solemnization, New Majestic Hotel was very kind to offer to us as a complimentary upgrade to "untitled", where had our day preparations done. However, we decided not to opt for the upgrade as we (or rather William) preferred "one day i slowly floated away". The reason why he loves this room is because firstly, it is Red in colour, secondly, it has Cats! Despite it being a much smaller room than the earlier, this room does have an interestingly unique feature: outdoor bathtub in the balcony. Nevertheless, we got a very good discount for this "Premium Garden" room. Note that New Majestic Hotel being a reputed design hotel, never gives discount, hence we were very pleased that we were given this 'very special gift' from the hotel (by large attributed to Fiona's excellent PR skills).
In room 211, every tile and wall is in Red with Cats sprawled all over the walls. While four or five stars hotels do not pay emphasis and continue to provide guests with generic toiletries, New Majestic Hotel takes the extra step to pamper the guests with body soap, shampoo, conditioner and bath foam from "Kiehl's". On top of this, the hotel management welcomed and congratulated us with a complimentary bottle of white wine and greeting card. While most hotels have lousy in-room entertainment with bulky box TVs, rooms in New Majestic Hotel are equipped with LCD TVs and even iPod docks. Enjoying a whole range of chilled beverages from the bar, teas or a hot cuppa from the chic Nespresso, all on-the-house! These are what I call "value-added services"!

While all these are already making it worth it to stay in New Majestic Hotel, the unique feature of this "Premium Garden" puts most major hotels down. Nothing is more relaxing than enjoying a soak in a bathtub or shower, in the outdoor 'garden'! While the "untitled" has a bathtub in a 'fishtank', this outdoor bathtub also adds sensuality along with a tinge of kinky for guests. All these unique touches to a hotel room are what it takes to put New Majestic Hotel in a prominent spot among a finer league of luxury hotels.
An undoubtedly acme of luxury in a nouveau hotel where two worlds of post-modernism and heritage meet!
