Clean and Convenient!”
The hotel doesnt look as good as it is on the inside, the room was super clean and new with all the amenities you need. The check-in and check-out were easy and fast. You can walk to many top destinations in KL from the hotel with so many restaurants and convenient stores around. The location is away from the busy streets as well, giving you a quiet night. However, if you drive or grab, youll be stuck in the jam otw to the hotel and the grab prices is usually pretty high.

Location was great, right smack in the middle of Bukit Bintang where everything you need is right there, lively location. Staff was really professional and friendly. Had a minor hiccup but I'm thankful staff had proper communication with one another to sort out the issue. Hats off to them! The room was amazing, clean and loved the concept of the Tatami room where there's is a little area for chilling. Overall a great stay and I'm definitely coming back again. Eatery at the top floor is great as well to chill there especially as it's overlooking the city.

Love the aesthetic of the Kuala Lumpur Journal Hotel. ”
Thank you, KL Journal Hotel. Your staff are polite, friendly, kind and very welcoming. My mom and my niece really enjoyed their stay. The location is unbeatable, 4 minutes to the famous Jalan Alor and well, a stone's throw away from the shopping district of Bukit Bintang and the transportation connection couldn't be any more convenient. Thank you!

Chic boutique hotel”
We booked 4 rooms for our family holiday and we enjoyed and were satisfied with our 2 nights stay. Location is right in the middle of Bukit Bintang. Rooms are clean and felt very new. Breakfast on Sunday morning was awesome. Quality food spread. Staff, especially Ms Jhan, were so helpful, efficient and friendly. Keep up the good work. Highly recommended. Will come again!

BEYOND EXPECTATION! TOTALLY IN LOVE!”
when i booked this hotel early of April 2021, i messaged the hotel asking whether if could have balloons in the room since i book the hotel for my 8yo daughter's birthday and the trip was a short birthday staycation, just us family. the hotel said okay, but i need to put the deco myself since the hotel didn't provide such service. am okay with that and i proceeded buying all sorts of party things. when we check-in, my 8yo CRIED! bcos the hotel room was filled with ballonssssssssssss! and, I DIDNT EVEN DECO IT YET! THE TV WAS PLAYING BIRTHDAY SONGS ON REPEAT! she was so happy! oh gosh! KL journal, i truly turly truly love u! Wins~~ MOST INSTAGRAMMABLE HOTEL ON EARTH, if i may say. MOST BEYOND EXPECTATION! other things such as room, cleanliness, location etc etc, is no doubt super 5 star! pool of course is super hip (but it's open to public, so just pray that there arnt a lot of people) then again, its suppose to have that 60's pool feel.. so crowded pool just goes with the theme

Lovely hotel, excellent location ”
Large room and bathroom, nice decor, clean, comfortable bed. Breakfast buffet had western and Asian options and was good. Location was great, right in the middle of Bukit Bintang walking distance to the big shopping malls, Petronas towers and Jalan Alor with free bus, MRT and monorail very close. Staff were pleasant and helpful. Brilliant value for money.

Dear Judi-Ann, thank you and so glad to learn about your positive experience here. Looking forward for your next visit soon
One of the best hotel in KL”
This is what a great great Hotel it is, to me. The stuff here is nice 8/10. The rooftop pool and hotel lobby is well designed, the cozy atmosphere here is an interesting contrast compared to the hectic bukit bintang road. The room is well cleaned and accessories are all there. Our room is on 10th floor, the view is so amazing that u could almost witness all skyscrapers. The parking underneath the hotel is rm10 per entry for hotel guests so it's a budget way to travel with monorail service and walking without having worries of driving and parking. The location is great, just a 3 mins walk to bukit bintang street or pavillion, two stations away from low yat and berjaya timesquare, u can even go to klcc from Pavillion. Overall, a great hotel that doesn't cost u a fortune, perhaps best budget luxury hotel in KL to me.

Loving the Vibes at this Hotel.”
Clean rooms, excellent location, friendly staff. Love the pool at night with all the neon lights lit up. Great to just chill out with a few friends if you are keen to jostle with the crowd along Bukit Bintang shopping area.

Great Location and staff”
Loved my time at the Journal, the pool area was just fantastic. The location is second to none with everything very accessible from high end shopping to the fantastic Jalan Alor food street and bar area. The breakfast would rival any hotel I have stayed in. But what really made it the best was the fantastic and friendly staff. Thank you so much team it was a real pleasure to return to the hotel after a day out and be greeted by the friendly team. I also can’t forget to mention the Terrace Restaurant and bar, the best place to unwind after a hot hectic day. Thank you so much team.

Best & great hotel ”
We stayed for 4nights with triple bed room. Hotel was great, clean and very futuristic. Room was clean, well organized & we have a good rest at night. Toilet was clean & not smell bad. The hotel location just few mins walk to Bukit bintang MRT. And many stall nearby. Only that the power outlet near our bed on our room was not in good condition. We have to use the power outlet near the tv table only. Thanks for the good hospitality will sure make a come back again

Great hotel in a great location. Very walkable to pretty much all the sights of KL! The room was very comfortable and spacious for two people. The pool/bar on the roof was a great way to relax after exploring during the day. WIll definitely stay here again on my next trip back to KL!

Strategic location and friendly staff”
I was a solo traveler this time. When I reached the hotel, staff inside came out right away and helped me to take my luggage, even when the staff are doing room keeping, they will still say hi to u, very heartwarming. Room is clean and they just got what u need, gym, swimming pool, great poolside view, night bar etc. Only the pillows are not so satisfying to me😂, it's too soft and my neck got pain on the next day. Breakfast more to western style, but they have nasi lemak too, not much variety to choose.

Best hotel in middle of KL”
This hotel is the best! Here’s why: - The water pressure in the toilet is good, it has 2 shower head which is 1 in the ceiling like rain (big one) and 1 at the wall where it can be move. - They also has netflix and JBL speaker (yayyy) - The area of the hotel has many arab & shawarma restaurant! - 5 minutes walk to Bukit Bintang, Pavilion, Lot 10, Farenheit - The staff is very friendly and helpful - The surrounding of the hotel is peaceful - The swimming pool is so beautiful Cons: - The parking space is very limited. RM10 per entry so I park my car there and just using grab to go wherever I want. - The pillow is a bit uncomfortable in my preferences But overall, I really enjoy my stay here and definitely will come again for another staycation

Cute, cute, cute”
I wasn’t sure if this would be ‘good from far, but far from good’ - and I was pleasantly surprised by how great this little hotel is. Phenomenal location, great rooms and bathrooms (always a plus) and the pool is a wonderful feature. We had breakfasts at the hotel and they were delicious. If I find myself in KL again, will definitely stay here.
