Guests praised the rooftop infinity pool with stunning nighttime city views. Spacious and modern rooms with well-designed interiors received positive remarks. The hotel’s location close to major landmarks and public transport was appreciated. Friendly and helpful staff contributed to a generally pleasant stay experience. Value for money was highlighted by several travelers given the amenities and location. Several reviews noted long wait times for elevators due to the hotel’s busy nature and limited lifts. Some guests reported cleanliness issues including presence of cockroaches and poorly maintained bathrooms. Noise from city traffic and early morning calls to prayer affected sleep quality in some rooms. The hotel’s security deposit policy was criticized for its unclear refund timing. Obstructed views of Petronas Towers from the pool area due to new nearby buildings disappointed some visitors.

Overall, my experience at Face Suite Apartment Hotel was generally good. I stayed in a two-bedroom apartment; one room was comfortable, while the other was noticeably very small. The service was good and the staff were helpful throughout the stay.
On the first day, I had a serious concern regarding cleanliness, as there was a cockroach in one of the bedrooms which I removed. While the staff offered pesticide spraying, this was not a practical solution during an occupied stay and highlighted a lapse in hygiene standards. The requirement for a security deposit was also unusual. Breakfast was served in an adjacent building, the Face Style, and was ok.
Overall, the stay was decent, but improvements in room standards and cleanliness would significantly enhance the guest experience.

Fantastic location close to LRT and MRT stations. We stayed in a 3 bedroom suite which was expansive, modernly furnished and stunning city views. Pool is amazing, again with wonderful city views, especially at night. Only criticism is that this place is so busy with only a small number of lifts so you often had long wait times but a minor inconvenience given how lovely the rest of the complex is.

The rooms are spacious, with amazing views of KL. The 52 level infinity pool view was amazing overlooking KL tower and Merdeka 118. Service is average. The breakfast lacks international options but was good as well.
We enjoyed our stay overall.

I recently spent two nights at this hotel for a staycation and had a fantastic experience. The hotel’s location is perfect, just a short walk to KLCC, which made it so convenient to explore the area.

This hotel is ideal for group travelers as it offers spacious rooms and plenty of common areas to hang out together. The e-hailing services around the area are also very convenient, making it easy to get around the city with minimal hassle.

For the price, I’d definitely say it’s value for money. The amenities were great, and the level of service matched the cost.

The highlight for me was the Level 51 infinity pool — the night view was absolutely stunning, with the sparkling lights of the city skyline making it the perfect spot to relax and take in the sights.

I recently stayed in an apartment at the Great Hotel and had an amazing experience. The highlight was definitely the stunning infinity pool — the views were incredible, and it created the perfect relaxing atmosphere. The apartment itself was spacious, clean, and beautifully designed, with all the amenities I needed for a comfortable stay. The staff were friendly and attentive, making sure everything was taken care of. Overall, it was a luxurious and memorable stay. I’d highly recommend it to anyone looking for a mix of comfort, style, and breathtaking views.

I love this place, for sure in my next visit I will come back.

They to fix the problem with the deposit. Because I paid RM200 and they said to me than they will refund in 1 month I dunno if they will do.
But the common areas are nice. I didn’t know about the pool till last day, security in the pool should to be more. Polite. Because the guy it was there it was so rude.

Anyways the hotel is good the attention can be better, in case that I can visit again I will be happy to share my comment before leave.

I was happy there and everything is close
Is a great option if u wanna enjoy around KL downtown you don’t need to pay transportation you can walk from the hotel to pavilion or the Chinese place of restaurants.

The price are affordable not so high, but cheap is not.
Super important to download Grab App to take taxis from the hotel because you can save a lot of money.

Guys improve customer service is the key of success

Very spacious and clean room, luxurious lobby, friendly staff and magnificent roof top swimming pool. Can view 3 most famous KL spectacular buildings. Value for money. Highly recommended hotel. Will stay again.

I was 2 night here, the room is very nice. I mean great style, modern and clean. The bar on 51 floor is fantastic with a nice few over Kuala Lumpur. You can see the Twin Towers by night. The Pool was the Highlight. I payed per night about 75 sfr, and this is cheap for what you get there. I would come back

Stay away from this hotel.

Here’s why:
- It’s a fraud. They lie in your face. They advertise a gorgeous view from their infinity pool. Guess what? There’s just half of this view now. Petronas towers are completely covered by a new building. Meanwhile, the hotel keeps using the old pictures.
- It’s dirty. There was dry urine on the toilet seat. COCKROACHES. Entrance hall of the apartment smelled strongly of cigarettes. White furniture is now all yellow, handles are sticky.
- Uneven service quality: staff is generally nice, but no one answered our phone calls about the dirty toilet.
- Windows are not sound proof: 5 am call to prayer and traffic noises won’t leave you any chance for a good sleep.
- Hot water ends very quickly. No nice long showers for you!
- Five star reviews are fake. Owners chose to pay “local guides” to post fake reviews instead of buying new furniture for the rooms…

I hope you won’t be as naive as we were. Dishonest businesses shouldn’t prosper on lies. Choose another hotel!

Look. If you're coming here, you're probably mainly here for the pool. The pool is great! Fantastic views day and night, although you can no longer see the Petronas Towers from most angles.

Suites themselves are fine. Fairly roomy but a bit worn. Ours had a sink sprout a link which they couldn't fix.

The check in was puzzling long and the elevators are pretty disastrous for wait times.

I think taking your pictures and getting out is the right strategy, but to each their own! The location is actually not bad but I would probably not stay here again.
Share your experiences, help others make the right choice!
Think about what you would like to know if you were looking for a review about a place to relax. Please describe in detail what you liked and what you didn't. What would you advise to other guests and to the hotel owner. The more fully you tell about the hotel, the easier it will be for other people to make a choice and they will be very grateful to you!
