The hotel is located at a good location. There are many restaurants and convenience store located around the hotel which is open 24 hours daily. Nice local seafood restaurant is just a few minutes walk away from the hotel.
The hotel is clean and nice.

What u paid is what u get.”
Quite Impress with the hotel condition even its old building but they had maintain it well. They do renovated the bathroom with modern style. However, the hotel still use old wooden furniture which i think it is the high time to replace it with new one. The pillow case also need to be change because i can see it was being washed too often and already shabby. The window also very high and it is difficult to you to see the nice view from you room but still ok. Overall it was nice to stay here.

A Great Hotel In The Heart Of KK City”
Booked a Deluxe King room. Hotel receptionists were well trained and friendly. Hotel checking in was smooth and super fast. My room was located on the 9th floor. The room was superb and the toilet was exceptionally clean. Housekeeper did a fantastic job in maintaning the cleaniless in the room and toilet. The view from our hotel window was absolutely stunning, enjoying watching KK city during the day & night as well. Food quality & taste in the Ala Carte menu was ok, could improved a little more. However, buffet breakfast was so good and delicious too, a wide array of food to eat. Last but not least, if you're planning visiting to KK, this is a hotel definitely worth checking in, trust me, you won't regret it. Two Thumbs Up !!!

The hotel was comfortable, clean and provided a good nights sleep.”
Loved that the rooms were clean and comfortable with all basic amenities provided. The only set back was the area surrounding the hotel which had too many massage parlours and night spots which can be a little uncomfortable for lady travellers. However, since we stayed just for a night before our flight the next morning, it was fine. Breakfast spread was also good. Staff were friendly and helpful.

Well maintained hotel, king bed room is big and clean. But the room sound proof is a bit disappointed. Happy with free hotel parking lot even not many but is good enough at the business central to get free hotel parking. Breakfast is quite nice.

Great location in the centre of the city - 15 minutes walk to the waterfront (though you have to cross a very busy road first). Fantastic breakfast in their large and pleasant restaurant. Room was clean and comfortable.
Staff were friendly but gave inconsistent information. Non-stop Christmas music in the foyer and corridors was very annoying, especially when I could hear it all night in one of my rooms. That room also had no wifi. My second room was quieter and had good wifi.

Good value for your money. Breakfast is okay!
Cons:
They don't have slippers in the room and toothbrush in the toilet (basic necessities).
Plus don't forget that you need to pay 20ringgit for the tourism tax

Overall good but still need improvement ”
Internet speed really worst, even though connected to nearest WiFi port. Tested running a speed test on WiFi, ping speed around 59-70ms which is very slow. Please improve on this because business travellers really depending on WiFi and service provider signal. Even can’t get much signal to use our own hotspot. That’s why we really depend on the WiFi from the hotel. But others really good and keep it up. Thanks.
