Stay Date: January & February 2023
After reaching the milestone of 40 nights last December, I chose the annual lounge pass at the beginning ofthis year. The lounge pass is valid until the end of 2024. I stayed at Grand InterContinental Seoul Parnas Hotel once in January and February, respectively. My rooms were upgraded tothe junior suite on both stays, and I was offered the club lounge benefits. My video in the last year already introduced the benefits for IHG One Rewards Diamond members and InterContinental Ambassadors. Hence, I will mainly introducethe club lounge benefitsthis time.
I was able to check in early for both stays. The afternoon tea time was from 2pm to 4pm. Because of late checkout at 4pm the next day, I could enjoy the afternoon tea twice during a one-night stay. Two-tier high tea was offered for two persons. It had sandwiches, scones, tarts and cakes. The happy hour offered a variety of hot dishes including fried rice, shrimp, beef, chicken, pork, fish and king oyster mushrooms. There were also salad, cakes and fruits. Every guest can also choose one of two main courses which included steak, salmon, codfish, and lamb rib during my stays. The meal was really nice and lavish. The club lounge offered soft drink, fruits, coffee, tea and macarons all day. Because breakfast was the best option from the welcome gift, I had breakfast at the restaurant instead of the club lounge.
The service and food quality are really good and satisfactory. I definitely will come back often.
入住日期：2023年1、2月
在去年底入住IHG飯店滿40晚之後，於今年初選擇了酒廊行證，效期至2024年12月底。這次在一、二月分別入住「首爾帕納斯洲際酒店」各一次，都被升等到小套房，並且享有俱樂部酒廊待遇，去年的影片介紹過鑽卡大使的待遇，這次便來分享俱樂部酒廊的福利。
這兩次訂房都可以提前入住，俱樂部酒廊下午茶時間從下午兩點到四點，提供一份雙層雙人份的下午茶餐組，餐點品質非常好，隔日因為延遲至四點退房，所以還可以再享用一次下午茶。快樂時光則提供多樣熱食、沙拉和糕點水果，熱食包括炒飯、蝦、牛肉、雞翅、豬肉、魚、杏鮑菇等，另有兩道主菜，每人可二選一。入住期間的主菜有牛排、鮭魚、鱈魚、羊排等，可說是非常豐盛，讓人吃得很飽。俱樂部酒廊整日提供軟性飲料、咖啡熱茶、馬卡龍、堅果和水果，除了快樂時光之外，其餘時段並不會感到特別擁擠吵鬧。雖然俱樂部酒廊也有提供早餐，但鑽卡會員的歡迎禮只有早餐比較值得，於是我便選擇在一樓餐廳使用早餐。
首爾帕納斯洲際酒店的服務和品質都很不錯，有機會我一定會常來。
