CONCLUSION

We stayed here exactly a year ago when the renovation was still being done and the Executive Lounge was still a temporary one on the ground floor. The renovated rooms are really nice and I must say that the Executive Lounge is really modern and beautiful. The food offering during happy hour was also very good just like what you what Hilton Kuala Lumpur and DoubleTree by Hilton Kuala Lumpur offer. The pool is also open during our stay and is popular among guests. The location is not the best as it is not in the city center but the Metro station is only a 10-minute walk and from there, only 5 stations away to KL Sentral. Overall, we really had a great stay here and since it is much cheaper than the Hilton KL and DoubleTree KL, this is a great hotel pricewise.
