Many guests appreciated the spacious and comfortable rooms with some receiving free upgrades to suites or executive rooms. The breakfast buffet is frequently described as delicious with a wide variety of local and international dishes. The hotel has a pleasant traditional Malay vibe with staff in traditional attire and a calm atmosphere. Convenient location within walking distance to shopping areas like Pavilion Bukit Bintang and close to major attractions. Multiple swimming pools were highlighted, including rooms with direct pool access, enhancing the leisure experience. Several reviews noted maintenance issues such as malfunctioning air conditioning, broken bathroom fixtures, and worn-out room equipment. Some guests reported cleanliness problems in rooms, including old carpets and mold, which contrasted with the well-maintained lobby. Noise disturbances from upper floors and slow room service were mentioned by a few visitors. Breakfast quality varied, with some guests finding the buffet heavily focused on local cuisine and lacking Western options. The hotel is aging, and some areas like the hairdryer and minibar were described as outdated or empty.

We arrived at hotel almost 5pm. The receptionist said the premier room that I booked already fully booked. I insisted the king bed room & she give me free upgrade to executive room with side twin tower view☺️. The room is huge & comfortable. It is quiet & we have a good sleep during the night. Breakfast delicious. Rating 8/10. Minus cause doesnt have cheese section.
Hotel is walking distance to Pavilion Bukit Bintang. I love the traditional vibes of this hotel. There wear traditional attire. Please maintain ya the vibes.
Repeat again? Yes☺️
Sorry didnt took photos of the room. Only videos.

This hotel is truly “old but gold.” The service, facilities, and room quality are all very good. My room was connected to the swimming pool on the second floor, making it very convenient and easy to access. There are three different swimming pools available. Valet parking is provided at RM40 per day.

The hotel is located near Pavilion and is within walking distance. With a price tag below RM400, it is definitely worth staying at this hotel.

Booked a two-night, one-bedroom twin apartment for 800+ (yuan, presumably), and got a free upgrade to a premier suite! My son was so thrilled he said it was the best hotel of his life. Check-in and check-out were super smooth, even for someone like me with limited English. The breakfast had a great variety, and I even tried a yogurt that made me question everything (maybe it wasn't yogurt after all!) – but overall, it exceeded my expectations! If I ever do a deep dive into Kuala Lumpur again, I'll definitely choose this place. P.S. The hotel's location is excellent, but even that can't escape Kuala Lumpur's crazy traffic. Sigh.

Facilities: Some reviews mentioned poor facilities, but I found them to be quite unique and excellent. You can tell from the photos. The only thing is the hairdryer in my room was quite old, but all other facilities were great.
Hygiene: The hygiene was excellent, very clean. I brought my own sheets but didn't even need to use them.

Environment: Fantastic! I was initially worried about insects and snakes, but I didn't see any, which put my mind at ease.
Service: The front desk staff was very attentive during check-in. It was my first time traveling abroad alone, and my English isn't great, but I was checked in and in my room in under ten minutes. Staff helped with luggage both getting in and out of the car. When I was lost, one staff member even helped me with directions and chatted a bit. In short, everyone from the main entrance to the front desk, to the restaurant, and even staff I just passed by, greeted me with a smile. They were all very polite and friendly. I will definitely stay at this hotel again when I visit Kuala Lumpur!

I stayed for 2D1N at The Royale Chulan Kuala Lumpur in a one-bedroom apartment, and it was a very comfortable experience. The apartment was spacious, clean, and well laid out, making it feel more like a home than a hotel room.

The living area was cozy, and the bedroom was comfortable with a good bed for a restful night. The apartment was well maintained, and having extra space was definitely a plus, even for a short stay. Everything was tidy and functional.

The location is great — close to the city center and within easy reach of shopping areas, attractions, and public transport. Check-in and check-out were smooth, and the overall atmosphere was calm and relaxing. A great option if you’re looking for a comfortable apartment-style stay in Kuala Lumpur. Would gladly stay here again.

The location is great, within walking distance to Pavilion, but everything else was terrible. The hotel is really old and rundown. The hygiene was incredibly, incredibly awful; I've never stayed in such a dirty hotel in my life. Absolutely do not book this place. The breakfast was horrendous, all Indian food. The flatbreads and pastes looked completely unappetizing. Seriously, don't book this hotel.

Booked this hotel for Christmas celebration but ended up spoilt my trip.
Allocated a room at level 5, went into the room, the door lock is spoilt, room phone is spoilt. Went down to lobby to request for room change.

Allocated another too. In the same floor. Notice the room air cond not very cold. Thot may be we just on the air cond, ithe room should be cooler later. Went to KLCC for dinner and shopping. Came back around 10pm ++. The room is warm, air cond is not functioning. Called front deck for help. They sent the technician, whom confirmed the room air cond is not working.

The front deck Ms Hana who handled us is not qualified to be customer service front deck. Let us wait for quite some time. Don'tevrn offer complimentary upgrade room for us. Ended up shifted us to a room at 3rd floor.

In the mid night, discovered the toilet bowl stuck. Hv to call front deck again...!!!!

The service is unsatisfactory, the hotel condition is bad. Technician told us air cond in a lot of rooms is not functioning 😕

Really has unforgivable experience in this hotel. Spoilt my Christmas!!!!

The location of this hotel is very strategic making it accessible to Pavilion Mall.
Generally, it was a good stay. However, we encountered unpleasant noise coming from the top floor and requested a change of room- the manager obliged which was good.
Room service takes time. Buffet was more on local delicacies since they get a lot of foreigners. Salad bar can be improvised with more varieties.
For international guests please be informed that this hotel does not serve alcohol.
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!
