Pros:

Das Design, die Ausstattung und das Frühstück waren wunderbar! 10/10 für dieses Hotel in KL! Wir würden jederzeit wiederkommen

Cons:

Das Haus ist recht hellhörig durch die offene Architektonik. Im obersten Geschoss befindet sich eine Bar. Man sollte sich bewusst sein, dass es vor allem abends etwas lauter werden kann…

Worth every penny. Loved being in China town all the hustle and bustle. Close the door to tranquil environment
Pros:

The extremely friendly staff. Cleanliness.
Everything we ate was superb 👌
Well done to all staff from door men to waiting staff.

Cons:

The only problem my husband encountered was he found the pillows too firm.
I’m sure if he had mentioned it the staff would have rectified the problem.

My Stay at ELSE in Chinatown
Pros:

The location, the staff attentiveness, and the breakfast.

Cons:

The bathroom, even though was equipped, it was just small.
The room was only 265 SF.

One of my favorite hotels
Pros:

I can’t express how much I love this hotel. All the little extra things they think of like a little coffee station in the room and big bottles of filtered water in sealed glass bottles. Aesop products in the bathroom. It’s a very peaceful place to walk into in a busy area of town. Bed is very comfortable and the staff are wonderful. Highly recommended.

5つ星ホテルとは思えない残念なホテル
Pros:

アメニティが良かった

Cons:

地下が吹き抜けになっいて、音が筒抜けで非常にうるさい。チャイナタウンに面しているので、道の音も聞こえて、うるさい。
