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.”

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.

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

Fantastic, the best location in KL.
Excellent location on the KLCC square, in front of the Petronas twin towers. (room with view of the towers cost more). Very elegant, stylish, in line with the Mandarin brand. Exceptional standards of service. Beautiful, spacious room and bathroom
The hotel was extremely busy, with overwhelming security presence, as it was hosting ASEAN meetings during our stay. We would have appreciated been informed in advance.

Amazing experience. This is my second time at Mandarin KL and will definetely return. It has the perfect location, a few meters from Suria KLCC and the Petronas towers. The staff are amazing, always smiling and willing to go the extra mile for their guests. And the pillows! Oh, those pillows are the best in the world! I wish i could buy them.

Best and most relaxing hotel in middle of busy Kuala Lumpur!!
fantastic place to stay in downtown KL! very relaxing with tip top facilities, has covered walkway all the way to Bukit Bintang, gym is very well equipped, and great infinity swimming pool. my wife liked the 75min free yoga class by a professional teacher. breakfast was very good, though limited spread compared to other high end hotels. we stayed on 28th floor, with a great view of the city.
breakfast spread was limited and the space was very cramped. they should have more spacing between guests tables at breakfast.

I really enjoyed my stay here. The hotel is very comfortable and the location is super convenient, just a short walk to the shopping mall. The breakfast was excellent with a good variety of options, and the view from my room was amazing. Perfect for both relaxing and exploring the area

Overall good but could have better breakfast.
Location is excellent, the staff were all so helpful. 1 trainee was a bit slow but his senior came to help. I love the beds, pillows and bathroom, lifts were quick too.
I expected more at the breakfast buffet. Not worth the price. The teh tarik was below average and a tad too sweet for my liking, plates were gone in just minutes, not enough for peak season and they were still wet from the kitchen, had to wipe dry on our own. The omelette was also average, roti canai wasnt made fresh but i understand understaffed n time constraint. But for THAT price, it was not worth it. Not 5 star material.

A beautiful hotel but not quite measuring up to its more modern 5* neighbours.
