Roomer

The Platinum 2 KLCC by Reluxe

Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia
$60-120/ nat

Bestil hvis You want a viral infinity pool photo and a massive apartment for a fraction of the price of a luxury hotel.

Hvorfor folk elsker det

  • The Level 51 rooftop infinity pool with direct views of Petronas Towers and KL Tower
  • Huge apartment-style rooms with washing machines and kitchenettes
  • Walking distance to the Monorail (Bukit Nanas) and LRT (Dang Wangi)

Hurtig oversigt: A high-rise Airbnb masquerading as a hotel where you trade service and deep-clean standards for killer views and square footage.

Anmeldt af @mettahara: I couldn't believe my eyes when I got to the rooftop. Swimming with the Petronas Towers looming right over me was a bucket-list moment. The vibe is moody and cinematic, perfect for getting those incredible shots. Honestly, I booked it just for this pool, and it delivered.

The hype

Guests are blown away by the size of the rooms and the pool view but frustrated by the chaotic check-in and elevator wait times.

Reality check

Multiple reports of mold in AC units and stained linens suggest housekeeping is surface-level only.

  • You are an independent traveler who prefers WhatsApping a host over calling a front desk
  • You need a washing machine and kitchen for a longer stay
  • You prioritize Instagrammable views over 5-star service

Renhed & Vedligeholdelse

6
  • Housekeeping: Non-existent during stay. Arrival cleaning is hit-or-miss; floors are usually clean but deep cleaning is lacking.
  • Bathroom hygiene: Functional but often shows signs of wear. Watch out for slow-draining showers and hair from previous guests.
  • Maintenance: High wear and tear. Scuffed walls and broken cabinet hinges are common.
  • Linens & towels: Often worn and sometimes stained. Not the crisp white hotel standard you might expect.
  • Odors & scents: Common complaints of musty/moldy smells from the AC units.

Før du booker

Godt at vide

  • Download WhatsApp – it is the primary way to communicate with the 'butler' or host
  • Bring your own travel adapter (Type G) just in case, though some rooms have universal sockets
  • Grab (ride-hailing app) is the best way to get around if not using the train

Hvad skal du pakke

  • Disposable bed sheets or a sleeping bag liner (if you are sensitive to linen cleanliness)
  • Cash (MYR) for the deposit and Tourist Tax (MYR 10/night)
  • Swimsuit for the pool (strict attire policy enforced)

Værelses-genie

Bedste valg

  • Premier Suite with Twin Towers View (ensure it explicitly says 'Twin Towers' or you'll get a view of a construction site)

Værelser at undgå

  • Standard City View rooms (often face other buildings or construction)
  • Rooms near the elevator bank (noise)

“Hi, I am booking specifically for the view. Please confirm this unit has a direct, unblocked view of the Petronas Towers and is on a high floor (above level 30). I also request a unit where the AC has been recently serviced to avoid mold smells.”

Ofte stillede spørgsmål og skjulte tips

Alt hvad du gerne vil vide før du booker.

Is breakfast included?

No. This is a serviced apartment. There are cafes in the building and nearby, but no hotel buffet for this operator.

Is the pool free?

Yes, access to the Level 51 infinity pool is included, but it can get extremely crowded.

Can I leave my luggage?

Technically yes, but it depends on the host's availability. There is no central 'bell desk' for Reluxe, so coordinate in advance.

Is there daily housekeeping?

No. Cleaning is usually done only between stays. Extra cleaning can be requested for a fee.

How far is the Twin Towers?

About a 10-15 minute walk, or a 5-minute Grab ride.

Is it suitable for families?

The space is great (2-3 bedrooms available), but the lack of child-proofing and the 'party' vibe at the pool might not suit young kids.

Insidertips

  • ✨

    Go to the pool at 7:00 AM sharp to get a photo without 50 other people in the background.

  • ✨

    The elevators are notoriously slow during check-out (11 AM - 12 PM). Leave 20 minutes early.

  • ✨

    Use the 'Bukit Nanas' Monorail station (5 min walk) to get to Bukit Bintang shopping district easily.

5 ting du bør vide før du tager af sted

  • 💡The 'Butler' is often just a guy with a key card who might be handling 10 other check-ins simultaneously.

  • 💡The pool water can get oily and murky by the afternoon due to the sheer volume of influencers wearing heavy makeup.

  • 💡You might have to pay a 'Tourist Tax' of MYR 10 per night in cash upon arrival.

  • 💡The 'City View' might just be a view of the building next door.

  • 💡There are no face cloths/washcloths provided, only bath towels.
