I booked the Shangri-La after reading all the reviews and to see it is the nr.1 hotel in Kuala Lumpur according to Trip Advisor. It is indeed a great hotel, however, it is a bid DATED and internet connection was a real problem, as the speed was almost the old dial up ones! PROS: Excellent breakfast Very good service Many...

I stayed here for my birthday in May and was a bit disappointed. The hotel is supposedly the Number 1 hotel in KL (according to this site) but to be honest i've stayed in a lot nicer places (Ritz Carlton, Park Royal, Maya). The first room we were given was a smoking room and was so small and smelly that... More

We recently had the pleasure of staying for 3 nights at this wonderful hotel. The service here was absolutely top notch as well as the food. If you go we strongly recommend staying on the concierge floor as the private club is totally worth it. You will totally be pampered and coddled :-) Few big city hotels offer the personalized...

The bathroom was filthy with red marks on floor and toilet. I had to call housekeeping 3 times and threatened to post picture online before the manager came to examine my bathroom. Even after sending housekeeping to clean it, I discover more brown stains on the sink. In addition there were shoe marks on my bed linen under my comforter!... More

I stayed here for two nights on my way to the other sister Shangri La resort Penang, from the pick up at airport through the elegant professional check in to the nice touch of decorating our suite as we were in our honeymoon up to checking us out was a totally enjoyable elegant experience.

Have to say that the rating and reputation this hotel enjoys is justifiably so. Great room rate, 14th floor for only around $160 AUD per night (we can't even get a 3 star hotel for that in Perth) and the service to back it up. The staff and facilities were excellent. We stayed 3 nights and it is the ideal... More
