How far is Genting Grand from Sky Casino? Was so excited to be getting the Club Suite that I didn't even think about the distance. Hehe.

And does Casino De Genting uses the same membership/slot cards as Sky Casino?

I would say pretty far! Would at least take 15 mins for me (I’m a slow walker!). Need to take escalators all the way up from Sky to the upper levels and reach the old arcades/old casino.

And your second qn, yes! The same card can be used everywhere!

For GG, you just need to take 2 sets of lift to the ground floor of skyavenue. Then you walk by the skytropolis on passing the Korean fried chicken food store. The overall timing is about 12 - 15 mins depending on your pace. Otherwise you can take a cab from outside Maxims to First World Hotel for RM10. I usually do that if I am rushing for time.

Awesome! Thank you for the info! I guess 15 mins is alright. Compared to the last time I went, I stayed at Gloria Residences. Which was hell commuting to and fro.

Haiya bro, explore Genting a bit la - it's not as tho genting is all abt Sky Avenue or Sky Casino only... since u managed to get GG Suite - just try out the old casino which is located within the G.Grand Hotel building itself.

So many areas within the vicinity of G.Grand tat u can visit & play eg. Genting Club, Maxim Gold Club, Hollywood, Circus Palace, etc...

That way, u can walk to/ fro these places multiple times - whenever u felt tired or need a dip in the bathtub in the hotel & relax...so convenient...c'mon u shud spend some time enjoying the hotel facilities as well la...got gym & spa, restaurant, etc...make full use of the opportunity given to u...Sky Casino can wait till another visit... anyway, it's only 10-15 mins leisurely walk in case u really wanna go.

Enjoy the GG Suite while u can as it's not all the time u can get it 😁

Hehe. You're absolutely right. I suppose it's rare to be able to get a comp suite at GG. So I'd better make full use of the facilities instead of whiling my time away at the casino.

Been a long while since I went to the old casino. Now's the perfect chance to revisit I guess.

Thanks Smarty!

I actually prefer the old casino than sky casino (only play a bit of slots). Try out coffee terrace buffet. Breakfast 40% off for hotel guests (including FWH). Lunch is value for money. RM 48 only. Jia Bah Bah.

40% off breakfast only. Must show the room chit. In May it was printed on the room number chit of first world hotel. In Oct not printed anymore but the digital signboard outside Coffee Terrace still shows it.

Also kids eat for free for lunch and dinner with min 2 adult paying.

Senior Citizen after discount lunch RM44 dinner RM58. Very worth for dinner. Lunch not much difference from before discount.

Jus back from Genting last Sunday, stayed in theme park hotel sixer room
If raining, really quite inconvinient. Beside no shelter for about 30m but then the shletered route will be easily flooded if heavy rain

Also for the sixer room, quite warm even with the window opened till max
The ceiling fan is a one corner, the bed under the platform will be super warm
We have push both beds on the lower platform to near the windows to get cold air
I slept 3 night topless....quite jialat

Ah. That explains things!

Anything good to eat there besides the Coffee Terrace and Food Factory? Looking for not too expensive type. :s13:

I took the breakfast in May 2019.

Last week had lunch but not breakfast. But saw it still flashed on the digital board. Must stand there and watch a while. It keeps changing to various promo. Wanted to take photo but moved too fast before I clicked. Only managed to take photo of kids and senior citizen promo.

Maybe next time show them the booking order and see if they accept.

Btw breakfast is RM46, lunch RM48. That's why I usually have lunch instead of breakfast. But with the 40% breakfast is worth.
