6/10 Good

Beautiful design but potentially noisy

Beautifully renovated and well located for chinatown. Liked the bar and breakfast. Didn't like that there were road construction works at 1am and when we complained, there was no apology, plus we had to demand a different room to sleep in because of the noise and the ground was vibrating!

A small hotel with friendly and efficient staff, they remember your name, assist with choosing activities and check if you have found your way. It is a beautiful building with comfortable bed and room and everything one could wish for.

It’s in a hipster and convenient neighbourhood with colorful bars and eateries. Friendly and very knowledgeable staff. The decor was very tasteful and comforting. Don’t miss the great breakfast at Raw.

Beautiful, well designed hotel. Corner Room 501 had wrap around terraces with view of the Petronas and tower. Beautiful at night. Staff is welcoming and gracious. Naga was especially helpful and friendly. Be prepared to be awakened early with very loud call to prayer. We liked it but heard some guests complaining.
Patricia, 5-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Fantastic Modern hotel in China Town.

The hotel is a brutalist conversion of the old Lee Rubber building. the staff are fantastic and the rooms are large and modern. the bathrooms were a good size with huge shower. it was lacking wardrobe space, and the toilet was separate with a glazed wall, which if used at night lit up the whole room. the swimming pool was a good size with a great wine bar on the same level. The hotel restaurant was very good, but full of instagram wannabees. it seemed that most people turned up with large bunches of flowers and just wanted to take photos of food/flowers/themselves rather than eating. Good location, easy walking to the main sites of china town.

Fantastic hotel!

This is truly an oasis in hot and humid KL. The staff were fantastic my entire stay. Breakfast is good. Cooked to order, not buffet. Not a large selection, but enough. I will stay here again next time I’m in KL.

Kevin, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

On my last night I needed sleep for an early flight, there was a party being held on rooftop above my room. The party went on very late and was EXTREMELY loud. It sounded like a live concert was going on outside my room with the music and people literally screaming and cheering. Other than that, it’s a really nice hotel. Good breakfast, friendly staff, nicely located in China Town.
