Kuala Lumpur Travel Guide

Heading to KL for a night or two? Just make sure you know where to go, as there is plenty to do and see in our neighbouring city.

Stay
Get away from it all and experience a colonial hilltop mansion for a night or two at Carcosa Seri Negara. Think chintz, teak and marble. If you want more modern day book a club suite for sheer pampering at the Mandarin Oriental. Hotel Maya is another good option, with its central location and reasonable packages. But if you are after some Arabian glamour head to Le Méridien for a touch of white marble, chandelier and arabesque designs.

Shop
For some homegrown talent head to Aseana, where you will find local designers creating some Pucci-esque dresses with traditional batik patterns. The Bangsar area, is great for a spot of boutique shopping. Check out Gallo by Thian where everything is designed in-store! Mooie is great for youthful, casual threads, at friendly price points and the instore café is great for the weary shopper. Tea & Sympathy has a staple of cocktail dresses and pretty tops, and a small range of children's wear. Pop into Cats Whiskers for some killer heels, great bags and cute dresses.
