"The ultimate hotel in Kuala Lumpur. We stayed in late July 2026, and this was our fifth visit to Mandarin Oriental Kuala Lumpur. We are definitely ‘Fans of Mandarin Oriental’.
There is not much not to like about this hotel. The main reasons we love it are
- Best pool in KL overlooking KLCC Park. The pool crew are amazing.
- Every staff member treats you like royalty.
- A central location, an easy walk, Grab or train ride.
The main thing we don’t like about the hotel is the bathrooms - they are on the smaller side. Yes, the rooms are a tad dated, but they are still very comfortable and very well looked after. We recommend the Club and the ‘Corner Park View Room’ as ways to elevate your stay at this property - the park view is definitely our preferred over the KLCC towers.
As with most Mandarin Oriental properties, the staff are the highlight. They are super hospitable and go out of their way to make your time with them something special.
We definitely recommend this hotel as the best place to stay in Kuala Lumpur."
