人々が愛する理由
- Stunning 1930s Art Deco architecture (formerly the Lee Rubber Building)
- A la carte breakfast that beats the usual stale hotel buffet
- Rooftop saltwater infinity pool with skyline views
クイックテイク: It's an aesthetic masterpiece that forces you to relax, provided you bring earplugs for the Chinatown street noise below.
@migueltravelaround によるレビュー: I found the ultimate sanctuary in Chinatown. Walking through that hidden green door felt so exclusive, and the atrium architecture is breathtaking. It’s the perfect minimalist escape from the KL chaos.

FAQ と隠された便利な使い方
ご予約前に本当に知りたいことすべて
Is breakfast included?
Yes, and it's excellent. It's an a la carte menu (not a buffet) served at Raw Kitchen Hall.
Is there a pool?
Yes, a saltwater infinity pool on the rooftop, open 6am to 10pm. It's unheated.
Is it family-friendly?
Technically yes, but the vibe is very adult/chill. There are no specific kids' amenities.
How is the gym?
It's a 'boutique gym'—think dumbbells, a treadmill, and functional training gear. Not for powerlifters.
Can I walk to the Petronas Towers?
No, it's a 10-15 minute Grab ride. But you can walk to Central Market and Petaling Street.
Is the area safe at night?
Chinatown is generally safe but can feel gritty. Stick to well-lit main streets and watch for pickpockets in crowds.
インサイダー情報
- ✨
Request a 'Gratitude Space' session if you need a quiet place to meditate.
- ✨
The 'floating pods' in the gym are a paid extra but worth it for sensory deprivation therapy.
- ✨
Don't miss the library den on the second floor—it's often empty and perfect for working.
行く前に知っておくべき5つのこと
💡The corridors are open-air, which means humidity and the occasional mosquito can greet you at your door.
💡The 'Mantra' rooms are quite compact (25sqm)—fine for solo travelers, tight for couples with big luggage.
💡You can hear the rumble of the MRT trains from some rooms, though it's less intrusive than the street noise.
💡The bathroom amenities are by Omno and smell incredible (sage and lavender notes).
💡There is no spa on-site, only the floating pods and gym.
