Mandarin Oriental Hotel, Kuala Lumpur
Expert reviews
“The Mandarin Oriental offers skyline views and rooms that feature king-size beds, marble baths and nightstands furnished with fresh orchids.”
Featured in New York Times’ 36 Hours in Kuala Lumpur.
“Mandarin Oriental, Kuala Lumpur has managed to stand the test of time as one of the capital’s most trusted names, despite the fact that new luxury hotels seem to pop up every year in Kuala Lumpur, each one shinier than the last. This, of course, is largely due to the immaculate upkeep of the gleaming hotel.”
“Mandarin Oriental Kuala Lumpur, just across from the Petronas Towers, has stately elegance from the ground right up to the 30th floor. There’s an excellent spa, an open-air pool with views of the skyline, and enough outstanding dining options to last a week, including top notch Cantonese cuisine at Lai Po Heen.”

Excellent hotel but to book restaurant, better to do it yourself. Don’t rely on other people
Very convenient, next to suria KLCC so there was no problem finding something to eat and supermarket
One time i booked the Chinese restaurant for lunch and my reservation was confirmed through the reception. When we got to the restaurant, the staff told us there was no booking under my name or room number. So I still don’t know who was responsible for this miss booking.

A beautiful hotel but not quite measuring up to its more modern 5* neighbours.
Located at the foot of the Petronas Twin Towers and the large KLCC park and Mall, the MO is well located. The hotel is impressive with truly beautiful common areas, lounges, restaurants and foyer. The infinity pool is great with plenty of seating and a nice pool restaurant. The breakfast buffet was great with a fabulous range of international cuisine.
The bedrooms are old fashioned, tired and a bit shabby, in dire need of a renovation. I would not describe them as 5* at all. We had a cockroach in one of our bathrooms when we arrived, which wasn’t a great first impression! The staff were sweet but by the pool they were very slow to top up water, bring over drinks etc…. The breakfast dining space isn’t sufficient for a hotel of that size, so felt crowded and cramped.

In the middle of Kuala Lumpur
Central location, right next to the Petronas Towers. Excellent services and very friendly and attentive staff. Beautiful, spacious panoramic pool and spa equipped with all the amenities. Spacious suite, panoramic view and very comfortable bed
It certainly needs a reform... even if it is historically dated.
18 August 2025
Perfect location next to the Petronas Towers, with great transport links to other areas.
Breakfast was sensational. Indian, Chinese and European tastes catered for with excellent service. There was a queue to be seated if you hit the rush-hour but it didn't detract.
Our only negative was that we were charged in error for extra costs that wasn't corrected until 6-7 days after we had checked out.

Will definitely stay here again
“Excellent service! The room was wonderful, and the lounge was a delightful bonus — a great place to feel fancy while pretending I don’t check my emails every 5 minutes. The bed was so comfortable it practically held me hostage. All in all, one of the better places to stay in KL — and trust me, I’ve tested a few!
No long mirror in the suite, not a fan of the amenities
