"Excellent service. Excellent location for mass rail transport. However the ambience outside the hotel is not presentable. Important note is the front of the hotel is not accessible by car. You need to walk at least 30 feet to the road for your taxi. However the excellent service compensates these inconveniences."

"Great location right by Petaling Street. Our room was on the corner of the top floor with a view of the city and skyscrapers. The room is spacious enough for two. Our only complaint was that the bathroom seems run down, for example the towel rack was broken. The bathroom is small and the toilet doesn’t flush well. Other than that the room was well maintained and clean. Housekeeping was helpful and check in was easy. We had an early check in at 12pm for an additional 50rm."

What is a historic hotel like in Chinatown?
A guest who chooses a historic hotel has an opportunity to stay in a building recognized with a national historic designation. Historic hotels throughout the world come in all forms like stately homes, palaces or even lodges, old police stations or skyscrapers. These types of hotels in Chinatown typically retain authentic characteristics such as period features or traditional architecture within the guestrooms or public spaces.
What is the difference between a historic hotel and a heritage hotel?
They are quite similar. The term “historic hotel” is more common in the U.S., while “heritage hotel” is often used in Asia and Europe. Historic hotels tend to emphasize the physical building and architecture. Heritage hotels draw their meaning mainly from the cultural value that the place has and how it inspired the surrounding community.
Do historic hotels in Chinatown have modern facilities?
Yes. Every effort is made to preserve historic facades and treasured traditions, but hotel interiors are fitted with modern conveniences and safety features. Guests can expect the usual amenities you’d get from a hotel such as WiFi, heating and air conditioning, and updated bathroom facilities. In Chinatown, booking a historic hotel doesn’t mean you’re picking a place that’s uncomfortable for guests or simply rundown.

"I like that coffee shop with the treats when you're not looking for a big meal during travels. There is also a close by Mall that you can go too if you're just wanting to walk around if you're not visiting places of interests."
