A reader sent in his impressions of Gemini :

Visited this place on a Thursday evening 7pm onwards. Not very busy even at this hour, maybe about 6 - 7 people.


Your descriptions are spot on; I want to add that the steam room is more like a partition with a steam machine inside. It's never warm enough to enjoy the steam (well, there wasn't much else to enjoy). The shower inside lowers the temperature further. 

The view isn't that spectacular and the picture on their website is misleading (should a report be filed with the Consumer Council?), maybe they are taking a leaf out of HK Property Developers' book.

The dark area is frankly a bit sad and there were regular waves of cooking smell presumably from kitchens above or below, being brought in by the reversely mounted extractor fans.  I guess at least this smell is better than stale sperm but judging from the people flow they don't have to worry about that too much.

FuelMix says:  Agree that the pic on their website is misleading.  The place could have been so much more. It doesn't seem to be generating a public buzz notwithstanding the much vaunted but underwhelming harbour view. Sorry to hear about the cooking smell - but that may have been their way of letting you know that the place was "hot".  Thanks for the feedback.
