Stayed at the Empire recently. It's all very impressive, with the gold everywhere, but just a bit over-the-top bling. The check-in process was rather disorganised, with a couple of people manning the desk, but people just milling around waiting to be served.

Decided to try this hotel based on recommendation from my trusted driver in Brunei, I am mostly there on business and decided to stay here as the meeting location is near here. The hotel or rather resort is expansive and has all the tick in the boxes for a world class resort. It is huge comes with a golf course,... More

Magnificent architecture and great rooms. Plenty of choices for good food with at least four main restaurants and prices not too expensive. Very respectful and friendly staff. Quiet rooms and plenty of room to relax without being disturbed. Main pool still being refurbished but progressing rapidly but other pools available. More
