Hello everyone!! Just a throwback for last weekeend holiday, we went to one of the 5 stars hotel in Kuala Lumpur, Royale Chulan Kuala Lumpur.
To be honest with you, for those who love cultural, and especially for tourist, this is one of the best hotel in Kuala Lumpur for you. It’s more classical and traditional carving decoration for the building and it’s decoration as well. There are some of the times I can see that the staffs are wearing traditional ‘songket kurung moden’ and the guy wearing ‘Baju melayu’ some with ‘Tanjak’. It’s was the best for family gathering and to relax, but i should say not a hotel for business purposes 😃 The service a bit slow and not so organize, not a hotel if you are in a hurry 😀
Where to park? (If you have vehicles)
Well yea, for those who have vehicles, you may park your vehicle at the basement parking. There are B1 and B2 basement parking. I will recommend you to park at B2 basement, coz too many cars at the B1 basement.
So, there will be 2 elevators, one is to the hotel lobby, and the other one is to the apartment lobby. You will need to park nearby to elevators which for the hotel lobby. The good about the elevator is, you don’t need to touch the card when you want to go to your room 😂 well, yes it’s good for safety reason to have designated card to your room, but if you go with your family, it’s kinda irritating. Haha. Yeah, I give a thumb up to the traditional way for the elevators 😄
Elevators….
Royale Chulan KL has 2 elevators, one is for the apartment, and another one is for hotel lobby. Use the one for hotel lobby, I managed to snap some photos for the elevator, lobby and the front counter. Check these out.. 😃
Registration to check-in hotel
If you bring your own vehicle, you will need to register the plate number at the counter. So, whenever you are going out, you will need to go to the counter first, for complimentary parking -multiple entries (each time need to claim complimentary parking at the counter).
I booked my room directly at their websites. You may use another platform too, but if you choose to booked directly to their website, make sure you fill in the booking room with your full name. There is no deposit at the time of my visit. I did booked for 1 studio apartment and 1 superior king, but they provided me with connected room with 1 suite room, and 1 twin room. Aaaa…its win-win situation..perhaps its something similar to upgrade room? 😀 But it’s okay coz the visit is just for relaxing. So, you will be given mainly 2 cards, one is for the key and another card is to plug in the power.
The rooms….
Okay, once you reached to your room’s level, you will see a beautiful hallway to your room. I think so far this is the biggest hallway for hotel I’ve been in my whole life 😀
When you entered the room, you will see the dry kitchenette and big mirror..
The suite was kinda spacious, it has 2 seaters sofa and small round dining table. TV and console table. But I think the TV channel is kinda old, think it should be better if have netflix channel 🙂
The dining/living room and bedroom are separate by 1 small wooden sliding door.
When you go further, then you can see the whole bedroom…as below…
As I mentioned earlier, I got connected room and for the other room was a twin room.
The bathroom…
The hotel bathroom is kinda spacious..but the concept kinda similar to Pullman hotel. The bathroom has partition to divide the shower, and bowl, and each of the rooms has bath tub 🥰
The pool….
The pool was located at level 2. It’s just nearby to our rooms 😍 very convenient..
The complimentary breakfast, indoor waterfall…and garden… 🥰
Just like a normal hotel, this hotel has a complimentary breakfast. The food is local food and served ‘Nasi Lemak’ with ‘sambal’, ‘Roti Canai’, noodles, croissant and bread. Drinks, they have mango/apple juice, detox lemon water and hot drinks – nescafe, ‘teh tarik’, tea and black coffee.
I think overall, the food is not so bad. My mom said, it was nice. But I like those in Seri Pacific hotel more 😃
Okay, just nearby the cafe/restaurant..there is a tropical waterfall and garden….and lot of big koi fishes in the pond..😍
Well overall, it’s not that bad…a spacious hotel, very traditional and rich of cultural, nice food, but I think it will need a lil bit of maintenance especially the room furnitures. It’s quite old and got some scratches on the furnitures. A lil bit of nice room parfum, will be good, coz most 5 stars hotel I went have a decent smell, like spa smell. Not bad for tourism, but not recommended for business trip as the services a bit slow 😀
Till then…to be continue….for the next hotel trip…
Love, Sofia
