A Fantastic hotel with impeccable service, but be careful at the pool
Pros:

We stayed here for almost 2 weeks, so we got a good impression. In general this is a great place to stay in Kuala Lumpur.
The location is across the impressive Pavillion mall with shops from Richard Mille and LV to an amazing food court with cheap and delicious food in the basement.
The hotel has a small drive way and a covered entrance if you arrive by taxi. The staff is very friendly and always willing to help. Housekeeping is perfect and if you book a room with access to the Executive Lounge like we did things get even better.

BUT....The service at the pool, and the wifi, is poor, to say the least. The barman will not come to you, you have to walk to him to order drinks. And before you can order he gives you a very disturbed look because he was 'busy' on his phone.

We were also very surprised that during our entire stay one of the three cabanas at the pool was constantly reserved for one Dutch guest.
We tried everywhere, but no one in the hotel could tell us how to reserve a cabana, it seemed only possible for this one old Dutchman.

When an unknowing guest sat in the cabana pool staff did become pro-active and sent the guest away.
What's more, the old man that had reserved the cabana changed his clothes next to the pool!
Showing his naked body to whoever made the mistake to look his way. Outrageous! Especially because almost every day there were children playing in the pool.

After the first week we spoke to the management about this guest, but nothing about his poolside nudity changed.

But, apart from the poor wifi and the n*ked Dutchman I can only tell you that this is a great place to stay.

Nice stay overall.
Pros:

Location

Cons:

Happened during my stay. Raining. We cannot cross to the mall Pavillion, near yet far. We detour via The Star Hill. No signage.

Great location for downtown KL
Pros:

Been wanting to try this place for a while now, so I took a chance and did a birthday staycation, which I told them about when booking. It was nice of them to let me check in a little earlier (did not have to wait long), and to upgrade me to a nicer room on a higher floor. Also got a cake delivered to the room after checking in, which was pretty cool. The turndown service was a first for me. Bed was pretty comfy, slept okay, it was quiet. Could not get the device casting on the TV to work properly as I kept getting booted off when I was trying to watch something on my Disney+ app, so I gave up.

Location is pretty good in that you're right in the shopping area of KL and within walking distance of an MRT station. Parking was ok - it wasn't free, but can validate for flat rate.

It was the first time I've encountered a soaking tub, but it was enough for me to use up the bath bombs I brought along. Appreciated the toiletries brand.

Breakfast the next day was okay. The staff at Shook! were nice.

Only snag afterwards was that I hadn't received the awarded points, etc for this stay, even though I had booked through proper channels, and having to follow up with not just the hotel, but also with Marriott corporate about it. Can't even fill out the missing stay form cos this property is not listed on there. (it has since been resolved, but I shouldn't have to follow up, you know?)

Hence the 4 stars.
