The club lounge access allows you to enjoy breakfast, afternoon tea and club lounge access (other than breakfast and afternoon tea) at the 2nd top most floor with amazing food and quite an amazing view. Would recommend for everyone to try the club access if you are patronizing this hotel for your stay. Had a pleasant stay with my family consisting of 1 y.o. infant.
