About the Resort
The Kuala Lumpur city base
Mandarin Oriental, Kuala Lumpur is the KLCC landmark — a large luxury hotel set between the 88-storey Petronas Twin Towers and the 50-acre KLCC Park, steps from the Suria KLCC mall and about 28 minutes from the airport by KLIA Express. Its roughly 643 rooms, suites and serviced apartments look over the park or the city and Towers, in Malaccan-wood tones with marble baths, and the MO Club is the city's largest club lounge with 270-degree views. The signature is the infinity-edge pool at treetop level, looking across KLCC Park to the Towers, with a children's pool and a hot tub alongside. Dining spans Cantonese and dim sum at Lai Po Heen, the international Mandarin Grill, Japanese at Wasabi Bistro and all-day live cooking at Mosaic, with the single-malt MO Bar. There is a spa, a large gym, two tennis courts and indoor golf simulators, plus a children's club for families. There is no beach — this is a city, business and shopping base — the Kuala Lumpur leg, bookending Langkawi or Pangkor beach time or a Borneo extension.
