“The breakfast spread was a highlight, especially the nasi lemak and fresh croissants. The pool was great for both adults and kids with its two depths. Location was perfect for walking to shops and the wet market. Staff, including Chef Razib, were knowledgeable and helpful.”

“I wanted to leave as soon as I walked in, but they said I'd be charged for a no-show or have to pay for all 7 nights upfront. That's their policy.”

“Great location in a busy area, with the local market just across the street. Getting around is easy via the Chow Kit Monorail, a short walk away. Room was spacious and comfortable, bathroom clean. Staff were excellent, and the breakfast had lots of choices. The rooftop view is stunning.”

“Room was a good size and nicely furnished, and the concierge staff were helpful.”

“Very disappointed with the service. Checked in at 3pm to a room that wasn't cleaned, and there was no internet or ironing as promised. The duty manager was rude and offered no solutions. This made me late for a business conference, and my partner had the same issues. The hotel claims 4-star but feels like 2-star.”

6.6Verified guest

“Great value for money with reasonable prices and attention to detail. Located opposite a busy wet market, it's ideal for experiencing local culture. Staff are friendly and accommodating, and the rooms have views of the Petronas Twin Towers. Breakfast is delicious.”
