This Ramadan, Sunway Resort Hotel brings to life the legendary tale of 1,001 Arabian Nights. Though its name is well-known, the true essence of the story remains a mystery to many. The epic unfolds with a heartbroken King Shahryar, betrayed and consumed by vengeance, who vows to marry a new maiden each night, only to have her executed by morning. That is, until he weds the clever Scheherazade. She devises a plan where each night, she begins a mesmerising tale but stops at a cliffhanger, ensuring the king’s curiosity keeps her alive for another day. As night after night passes, he becomes enthralled with fables lie the adventures of Sinbad, Aladdin, Ali Baba and many more. Over time, her words not only capture his attention but soften his heart, ultimately leading him to abandon his cruel decree and embrace love once more.

Step into this legendary world as Sunway Resort Hotel reimagines 1,001 Arabian Nights through a grand, immersive experience. Indulge in a king-like feast at Sunset Terrace, where the rich flavours of the Middle East and beyond are woven into a lavish spread worthy of royalty.

Having experienced the Jemput Makan Iftar Buffet a few nights ago, I think it is the best hotel Iftar Buffet I have been to as the theme is so immersive. The waiters are in colourful monochromatic thobes, it’s as if we have been transported to a food bazaar in the Middle East. The buffet spread is nothing short of lavsih and completely indulgent, from starters to mains and the wonderful array of mouth-watering dessert. I could come back here night after night, to hear the stories which I have loved since childhood and to partake of the rest of the buffet which I didn’t have room for. Everything here is top quality (that includes the clearing of plates) and this is a buffet that is value-for-money in terms of both quality and quantity of choices.
