Latest Reviews for Kuala Lumpur Hotels

The Westin Kuala Lumpur
4.5/5798 Reviews
There was some trouble confirming the reservation at check-in, but the staff was kind and took care of it right away. Most of the staff were kind during my stay at the accommodation. When choosing accommodation, cleanliness and service are more important than anything else, and although the facility is a bit old, these two were excellent. Every corner was so clean that I realized once again that it is not the age of the facility that matters, but the sincerity of the staff. Lastly, if the staff is kind and the guests are kind, it seems that it is mutually beneficial. I hope you make a good choice!
