MARKO

From

My extensive experience with high-quality hotels in numerous countries meant I had no particular expectations upon arrival. It is not my custom to compose reviews, as my primary objective is to enjoy my stay. Nevertheless, I was most agreeably surprised by the Hotel Nuwa in City of Dreams. The courteous personnel and management demonstrated remarkable attentiveness in catering to my every requirement. A notably valuable amenity is the provision of a personal butler, designed for guests desiring an indulgent experience.
