There’s a reason why The Majestic Hotel is one of the most classic hotels in Kuala Lumpur. This historic hotel has been around since 1932 and much of the art deco design remains from the lobby to the room decor. There are many rooms and suites available, and each is beautifully furnished with laps of luxury. It’s so gorgeous that Majestic Hotel quickly became one of the best Instagrammable hotels in KL too.

Since Pavilion Hotel Kuala Lumpur is connected to the bustling Pavilion shopping mall, you have plenty of reasons to plan an exciting shopping trip in Malaysia’s capital city. After spending hours in the mall, make your way to the guest room where a comfortable bed awaits. To seal your staycation experience, we recommend getting a room with a city view, so you can experience the electrifying energy of Kuala Lumpur even after sundown. Since the Pavilion Hotel KL is also a 10-minute drive from some of the best theme parks in KL, you definitely need a good night’s sleep before you venture to the city again the next day.

Complete with a view of Petronas Twin Towers, we recommend splurging on a room with a city view, so you’ll have an awesome scenery to wake up to.
