“Everything felt luxurious and spotlessly clean, with a great skyline view. The staff were attentive and the service was terrific. Breakfast was very good, and the new double room had a comfortable bed and a large bathroom. The pool was nice, and parking on site was convenient. The location, close to Ampang Park, was unbeatable.”
