I am not a big fan movie-goer as I never find the seats at cinema comfortable. As such I feel that it is better to watch a show, even if it is at a much later time, at the comfort of my home than at the cinema theatre. But after my first experience with The Cathay Platinum Suites, things are going to change.
Since The Cathay Platinum is a suites, there are lots more privacy. When we arrived at the counter of Platinum Movie Suites, the luxurious vibes were in the air.
First the staff were standby at the counter to welcome the movie-goers and next we get to relax at the comfortable executive lounge.
In the cinema, the is the recliner seats with throws and wide leg rooms. If you are tall and bigger build, these seats suits you best. But don’t get too comfortable till you fall asleep. Popcorn and drinks were on ready available on the table.
At each seat, there is a button to request for more soft drinks.
The platter served at The Cathay Platinum Suites was better than I expected. Rosemary-marinated chicken chop with potato wedges and salad as the sides.
