And the ones u/c at KL Sentral

i like the Prince too!!

how about The Legend?? i like it too

So far my vote is with you, Baq!!!

eh.. the recently complete hotel call what??? the hotel that appear in TV after its completion ar..

yeah i think Prince Hotel is the most beautiful hotel in KL too:)

I like Prince Hotel as well.....I liked the food there the most (yum...yum!). Somehow I do not really like the interior that much. The poolside is nice though and commands a great view but somehow lacking of something.

MY overall best hotel goes to Legend Hotel. It has a great exterior (very 'gotham'-like) and it has a great interior. Its ballroom is one of the nicest around and its rooms are great too! :D

Plus Legend also has one of KL's best high-tea! Its lobby is on the 9th floor and it has the coolest hotel logo!. The only thing I hate is the HUGE signboard they added later at the top of the building! :rant:

to me.. it's the Westin.. and Sheraton Imperial for it's grand foyer..

To me it is Marriott!!!So nice man......

Hey how bout Kl Sentral Hotel, it looks nice too, but still u/C:D

Brave new world in The Living Room

HAVING observed, for the past few years, the construction hoardings and signboards, I was looking forward to seeing the completed Westin Hotel Kuala Lumpur.

Located in Jalan Bukit Bintang, the five-star hotel is owned by one of Malaysia's leading construction and development companies, Ireka Corporation Sdn Bhd.

With 384 rooms and 68 executive residences, a variety of F&B outlets, grand ballroom, meeting rooms and business centre and an executive club lounge, The Westin Kuala Lumpur is an impressive debut for the Westin Hotels & Resorts chain in Malaysia.

It might be a business hotel, but it has the personality and style of a boutique hotel. Its interiors are luxurious, warm, and urbanely stylish.

Award-winning interior consultants, Axis Network Design Consultants, conceptualised a lifestyle concept that merged design, technology and art to create a unique atmosphere that makes each visit a distinctive experience.

This week, Ambience focuses on the aptly-named The Living Room, located in the core of the building.

The Living Room is a continuation of the lobby and takes centrestage, as it is located in the atrium of the void rotunda space.

''Rather than a stand alone outlet, the space merges seamlessly with the lobby.

''Here is where the buzz of socialising, dining, and interaction take place, just like a living room,'' said Lai Siew Hong, a director at Axis Network.

The original design called for natural light through a sunroof, which had to make way for a swimming pool instead.

Nonetheless, there is still a sun casting its rays on The Living Room in the shape of a Dale Chihuly-inspired hand blown crystal pendant light suspended in midair.

Around the outlet's perimeter are elements of nature like waterfalls and a bamboo garden.

''We encourage elements of nature in the interior to give out an atmosphere of calm and tranquility,'' said Lai.

The décor is stylish, juxtaposed with forms and lines to give prominence to the commisioned sculpture and artwork.

The colour palette of white, pale yellow, warm biege, highlighted with gold, silver and black, is at once subtle and soothing.

The choice of colours also allows the theatrical play of optical lighting be emphasised.

The materials used are a combination of luxurious, textured and natural finishes, giving the area a healthy and radiant look.

All said and done, The Westin is setting new paradigms in hotel interior design.

This is a brave showcasing of Malaysian talent and resources that deserves all its expected success.

The Westin's Living Room is an example of the hotel's commitment to local talent and material.

Hm..can we actually consider Grand Seasons as Art Deco?
BTW, Mandarin Oriental is growing on me at this side! Got the Rockafella Center going on :cool:

Eh, where got "Holiday Inn in the City" 1? It was City Center lah :) ...

Yeah, the three Holiday Inns (including the one in Shah Alam) are all gone, due to change of management by the owners, PIHP Selangor... City Center and Shah Alam have become "Quality Hotel", one of Choice International's brand names... As for On The Park, i heard that there was to be a new hotel that will be constructed on the existing building... But so far nothing new yet...

The one "on the park" is to be upgraded into an ultra-modern 25 storey office building! I saw the rendering on the construction info board..it has a lovely top! :)

Maybe if viewed at the angle I posted loh..just like the rockafellar centre in NY, where it's IMO only art deco at the front :)

the Grand season and Mandarin Oriental hotel's photos r nice. they have the new york buildings' design style:D

Thanks for the info baq... Never knew that Holiday Inn on the Park is going to be an office building...

Yeah, Grand Seasons has an Empire State Building-like base... The Mandarin Oriental from that angle really is like Rockefeller Center's GE Building... Nice shots!

nice pic of Capital Hotel. Makes it look very New York like. :)

http://img51.photobucket.com/albums/v157/baqthier/capitolbaq.jpg
Wow, the New York-ness of the Mandarin Oriental and Captiol hotels is pretty interesting...

Whilst the Mandarin reminds me of Rockefeller Center (see the previous post), the Capitol is like those thin high-rises at the Lower Manhattan area (near the former WTC, such as the AIG Building)...

How about Crown Regency? ;)

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v157/baqthier/crownregency1.jpg

How about Renaissance Hotel?

Renaissance is nice:D Btw,anyone here stayed at the Hilton Sentral?
My dad stayted over a t a reasonable price 3 weeks ago.It was i think RM250 on a Thursday night.HE said it was nice and the plasma is very innovative for a hotel:D

Maybe end of this year if there's still this hotel rate,i'll stay over and take some photos yo!;)

Within KL, I think the Mandarin Oriental looks best...sombre and dignified, like an old duke.
outside of KL, I vote Palace of Golden Horses....

Actually, to be honest, there are two hotels that stand out in terms of design...the new Hilton and Le Meridien above KL Sentral.

First time to have a close view of Meridian and Hilton Hotel..nice :okay: I love the view from the lake;)

So..how is the Grand Hyatt Hotel now? Any news? Is this project resume already?


Still no activity :(

I really hope they will resume Grand Hyatt asap.maybe they are redesigning?

i thought le meridien and hilton are symmetrical, but it looks like hilton is wider. which hotel do you think is better on the inside? i tried to book hilton for their discounted opening rate, but fully book. :(

do the hotels share the same pool area or do they have separate pool area?

I wanted to try the gym in KL Hilton "Clark Hatch", till today still don't have time to try it :ohno:

Must be damn good ...

Hilton is suppose to be better.All rooms there uses plasma screen
And yes,they share the swimming pool.I'll post up a photo of the swimming pool later.the photos above were bot of the hotel's garden
