"A bit long story, but ended with good impression. This is our third stay at Le Apple, and this time prior to the trip, we booked the connecting room for 3 consecutive nights. Unfortunately, something went wrong, BUT I admired their enthusiastic staffs to help solve the problem eventually. The 1st issue started from check in, where we were told we couldn't get the connecting room as per the confirmation via Agoda's inbox message, the communication with a hotel staff prior to the trip. OK, I was tired from the flight and don't want to make any issue, just need to check in, keep the luggages, and take family out for dinner. But, the hotel staff managed us to get room side by side, and I think it was good enough. In fact, none of us has a problem except our 11-year-old son whom like to get nearby his mother. The 2nd issue came after we got into the room, where we can smell a strong scent of cigarette from somewhere, but clearly not from the same floor as I went outside the room to investigate. I called the reception and a staff came with some kind of spray to refresh the room. After 10 minutes, the smell still not good, but we have to go out for a dinner. So, we visit the front desk to inform them of the ongoing problem. They said they will manage to have an air purifier to get into our room, and they said they will have a staff to investigate also. That night there was a big air purifier sitting near to our bed and the smell was 80% better when we got back. The next morning we left hotel early on a taxi, and suddenly the hotel staff gave me a phone call saying that they can find a connecting room for us. So, we can switch the room when we go back in the evening. We appreciated a lot for their concern and services to customers. We thought nothing was going to change. As usual, the location of this hotel is superb. There is the Avenue K Shopping Mall right across the narrow street (15-20 meters away), where KLCC station is at the underground level of this mall.

"We have fond memories of the hotel when it was still Ming Court and we have stayed at Corus Hotel London a couple of times. When we stayed here recently we found the hotel lives up to its name in providing the services normally found in 5 star hotels though with less frills. So it is really great value for money. It is therefore not surprising that this attracted crowds you normally come accross when you stay at cheaper hotels. I do not have problem with this but may be a problem to those with attitudes who would quickly move to the nearest five or six star hotels nearby. I like the business philosopy of Corus in going into the middle range of the market. There are already too many luxurious hotels with all the frills catering for the "high" class travels but few that provide the comfort offered by the classy hotels but at a much less price. The majority of travellers with families do belong to the middle range of the market who would not be comfortable to stay at three star or budget hotels. So keep up and keep your niche. It would be good business and a big favour for the majority of global travellers. "

"I just stayed at The Royale Chulan Hotel for 6 nights in October 2012. The hotel is perfectly situated only 5 minutes walk from the main shopping strip of Bukit Bintang (find out how to cut through the rear of the hotel to the shopping area). It is very close to the Pavillion Shopping Centre which is one of the newest and best multi storey Shopping Malls in KL with everything you need including every fast food outlet and a full range supermarket. The Hotel is only a few years old and has a beautiful and unique Malaysian appearance so it offers the traveller to Malaysia a wonderful experience. The expansive lobby presents a very opulent first impression, and all the staff are just incredible! I had breakfast included each morning and the service was impeccable. I stayed in a deluxe room and it was huge, including a full size bathroom with separate toilet, separate shower, and a full size bath. The king size bed was delightful. The room had a fridge, tv with some english channels including movie channels, free wi-fi, ironing facilities, a desk, and a luxurious leather chair and ottoman. My room was on Level 2 which is the pool level, and my room opened directly out onto the pool, with my own private coutyard. The pool is a refreshing necessity in Kuala Lumpur if you are not used to the heat, and you can see the tops of the Twin Towers whilst swimming in luxury. Breakfast offered a huge choice of delicious foods including Western, Asian, and Arabic cuisine. But above the excellent standard and location of this hotel, it is the customer service from every member of the staff that I will remember the most. I have stayed in hotels in New York, Paris, Rome, London and around the world and the service at this hotel was just wonderful and could not be improved upon. Don't even look anywhere else, The Royale Chulan Hotel will give you an unforgettable experience if you're visiting KL. There literally is nothing more you need in a hotel."
