A review of the Kuala Lumpur Hilton Hotel

I stayed at the Kuala Lumpur Hilton hotel for the first time, it was a nice hotel, with a great room and great views so obviously had to drag out my trusted little camera to take some photographs. I was led to the top floor corner room, it was quite nice but the view was even nicer. Headed to the corner and into the loo peek out between the blinds.

 

Looking down, and the candle was making the room smell very nice indeed.

then I felt irritated by the blinds, after all, who on earth will be seeing me prance around shaving my philtum when I am 35 floors up? And yes, it does make a huge difference. Just imagine taking a bath and seeing this view? brilliant!

and the window

hmmm, interesting loo.

ok, this was very funny, the top is for, well, you can see the colour. While the pink is for wimmin, I guess. very nice imagery, lol

but the instructions were what were very funny.

While going down to meet somebody, I was waiting for the lift in the 35th floor lift lobby. So took the following set of pictures in the evening time. The light wasn't as good but you can see, nice views over Kuala Lumpur.

By the time I came back, it was was quite late and I took the opportunity to take the same views at a different time.

 

 
On heading back inside the room, the view from the bathroom windows was as spectacular as before, but I noticed something interesting in the lower middle of the big mirror.

 

Can you see the little black rectangle?

So I went to investigate. Its an LCD screen which shows what the TV is showing, brilliant idea, lol.

Here's a close up of the screen, BBC Worldwide while you shave. Very nice idea, loved it.

So given a choice between Traders Hotel where I stayed last time and this? Well, this Hilton is better. I was a bit surprised when this hotel was booked for me, Hilton's are usually not my cup of tea but she said this is recommended. Now I can see why it is recommended. Curiously, it was next to the Le Meridien. The two buildings share the same base and many other facilities, but the prices are quite different. If I get a chance, i will go stay there next time and then find out the differences.

I had a breakfast meeting at the Hotel Sudu restaurant after which I checked out. Breakfast in KL is just out of the world, the choice which you have is absolutely humongous. It had about 300 different choices of dishes which is bloody wrong, I tell you, so many choices and just so little time. And I was meeting a very intense young man as well. So I had to unfortunately concentrate on the discussion rather than the food. Bad news, what? 

Still, nice place, will try to go there again next time, comes well recommended :)
