For a city hotel, location is everything and the Royale Chulan Kuala Lumpur is central to most inner city attractions, services, restaurants and bars. Bukit Bintang, KLCC (including Petronas Twin Towers) , the Convention Centre, Aquaria KLCC, Star Hill Gallery, the Pavilion and Lot 10 are between five and fifteen minutes walk or a short taxi driven from the hotel. While centrally located, the hotel is situated in a leafy oasis and away from the hustle and bustle of city life. Immediately adjacent to the hotel are Badan Warisan (Malaysia’s National Trust) and Kompleks Kraf (Craft Complex). Travelling time to or from Kuala Lumpur International Airport to the hotel via limousine takes less than one hour.

The 402-room, five-star Royale Chulan Kuala Lumpur is destined to become the city’s hotel of choice when it soft opens in February 2009. From its conceptual stage it has been designed as a great hotel – one that will capture the imagination of both the city’s residents and its guests. A glassed-in courtyard conservatory will be a dominant feature of this low-rise development of just 402 guestrooms.

It will be an oasis of tranquility; a soothing escape from the pressures of business and the rapid development of a city on the move. Guests will be able to step back in time and reflect upon the days when travel to the tropics was an adventure. Relaxation, comfort and personalised service are qualities for which the hotel will be known.

Tropical detail will feature to give residents a sense of being in Malaysia and these will blend with contemporary elements.
