The hotel

A worthy member of the upscale Shangri-La family, this luxury Malaysian hotel embodies the group’s legendary qualities: decadent styling, exquisite dining, a catalogue of glamourous rooms and suites, and an elite and desirable setting. Taking references from the lush urban parks of Kuala Lumpur, the hotel’s pool is bordered by greenery, its gym’s running machines look out onto leafy landscaping, and the lobby lounge features a window wall with indescribably stunning views into the tropical gardens. It’s not forgotten its city centre location though, with ritzy restaurants, bars, and lounges fitting for its spot in Malaysia’s main metropolis. Just a 5-minute walk from the Petronas Twin Towers, this sanctuary is primed for guests drawn to KL for the shopping districts, culture, or simply the parks.

Very reliable brand. Stayed here for 6 nights and everything went so well unlike my experience in Westin Bukit Bintang that had a lot of mistakes. Staff are all so courteous. I felt safe and felt home. When i checked out i asked the front desk manager Sean Lee if They have service to send a package to Westin and he said he will do it himself with no cost. I told him this is about Westin disposable clothes hangers that they asked me to return to them. Just comparing how 2 top hotel hotel brands in the area can have massive difference. Westin annoyed me to the extreme while Shangri-la delighted me with this unexpected gesture. Excellent service! You keep my loyalty. Read less

Spent a wonderful two nights at the Shangri- La, Kuala Lumpur and loved every minute of it! Super attentive, friendly staff, who are always smiling and happy to help. On check in we were offered to pay a little more to upgrade to the Golden Circle floor, which gave you access to the Golden Circle business lounge. Here you can enjoy breakfast, afternoon tea and complimentary drinks between 17:00- 19:00, definitely worth the extra! This upgrade also allowed us to have a late check out, which was great, as our flight wasn't until 23:00. Breakfast in the Lemon Garden was also incredible, everything you could possibly want! The location is great too and only a 10 minute walk from the Petronas Towers, which was worth doing but you must book ahead! Overall, a beautiful hotel, run by a fantastic team, which I would most certainly recommend and return, should ever return to KL! Read less

Overall great experience. Staffs are polite and helpful. Room is nicely decorated with classic but luxurious feel. Bed is comfortable while pillows are a bit too soft. Location is good, not within walking distance to bukit bintang but shuttle is available. Suggest to extend the frequency of shuttle as other hotels do provide shuttle servicefrom major shopping areas till late night. Monorail station is 300m away and free public bus “Go KL” station to Bukit Bintang is right across the road in front of Concorde hotel. Overall enjoyable stay Read less
