No words to describe how I appreciated location and food. I was here for 3 nights and ate at in-house restaurant for food and drinks. A walk-in shower was clean and everything was good.

Its location was central, within walking distance of a night club. The in-house restaurant for breakfast and the pool bar.

All was fairly clean, I loved fantastic staff and rooms. It was the best of Kuala Lumpur hotels I visited before.

As for me, the area was awful.

The venue was deluxe, I liked the location close to transport links, and city views. I spent 7 nights in deluxe king room. Don't forget to explore Bukit Bintang district.

It was a such wonderful experience in a beautiful designed hotel. The reason we loved it was fabulous location and food. You could walk to a market and the shops. Besides, the area was busy, next to an award-winning shopping mall. An in-house restaurant was an advantage.

Its breakfast should have been included in price.

Top location, lovely views. The bed was super, and overall airy room! The breakfast was amazing, fresh bread and pastries. Incredible service overall. In the heart of the city, very convenient.

The bathroom I had was uncomfortable.
