I had been wanting to stay at this hotel for quite some time, and it absolutely lived up to my expectations. It’s a unique, retro, and stylish boutique hotel with so much character. The surrounding area is full of wonderful restaurants, so I really enjoyed both dinner and lunch during my stay. It was the perfect spot for a solo weekend getaway—cozy, charming, and very satisfying. The staff were especially kind and attentive. During breakfast, they checked on me several times and provided such thoughtful service, which made the experience even more special. I will definitely be coming back again!

It's about three stations away from the bustling Bukit Bintang area, and the monorail is just a 6-7 minute walk. The boutique hotel offers a unique stay with its blend of traditional charm and modern, cosmopolitan, yet cozy design. Thumbs up: When I brought in food from outside, the staff kindly offered me cutlery—such a thoughtful touch. It may seem small, but it made a big difference, allowing me to enjoy my meal more comfortably. The staff's attentiveness and kindness truly stood out.

Great hotel, lovely decor, very helpful staff & good location. However, comfort not so great as it was very difficult to sleep with motorbikes racing around outside in the early hours of the morning. Not sure if this is just a weekend thing! The restaurant was also closed all evening for a private event, & it would have been good if this had been communicated beforehand.
