New job @ NNRK

I guess as what the title states, this is my recently update. I have left InterContinental Hong Kong and moved on to NNRK. Some people has said this was a crazy move, as ICHK should have offered me lots more than this new job. The answer to this is yes and no, it offered me the knowledge and skills about this industry, at least I would know what a luxury hotel brand expects. Just hope one day I would go back to a five star property, but in the meantime, I will learn and train myself at NNRK, it is going to be challenging , I guess after this opening experiences, I would gain more for myself. Afterall I am pleased to have this new move, although it is very tiring at this moment, things should be much better in a later stage.

The grand opening ceremony was on last Friday, May 9, 2008. It was some kind of ceremony and party that night, really busy but I had fun as well. During the day time, I went out with the media group for a day trip in HK, obviously my heart was left in the office and think about the different work load that I had. On the other hand, it was great fun, I have experienced something that I never tried before, i.e. Dolphin watch in HK, visiting the bird market. It is a valuable experience and I guess it is good for me to have a day out just to relax, afterall it was a stress month for me. 

The moment that I have decided to take this job, I have decided to step up on the plate and take up the challenges. I hope things are going to be fine and we as a team can work better and closer together. May my worst nightmare will never happen.......

My stay at InterContinental Hong Kong

I stayed at my hotel in the first weekend and it was one unforgetable stay. The first reaction that Kit had when he first entered to the room was "Wow". I think I can live in that room forever, really love how I can wake up with a gorgous Victoria harbour view infront of me. 

As a guest, I have experienced a stay beyond a 5 star hotel, the little touch that do for their guest, their superb location and view, the highest standard of their service. Most importantly, the staffs who work in this hotel is crucial as without them, it won't make the stay unforgetable, I said this isn't because I work for the company, but I truly believe the staffs could make a stay different. 

It is something that I will remember for life and hope that I would have another chance to stay at InterContinental Hong Kong. Perhaps next time, it will be their suite, i.e. Presidential Suite.
