Unique Hotel in KL

Villa Samadhi

Water is one of the main themes of this glorious retreat. Very much a sanctuary of peace hidden away from the bustling city, Villa Samadhi provides guests with the ultimate relaxation paradise. The hotel’s pool area is a true oasis - the calm serenity it evokes is almost surreal at first. Villa Samadhi is the epitome of tropical retreats, and is one of the best places to spend a romantic vacation.

Container Hotel

Container Hotel is, yes, built out of freight containers. With guest room names like ‘Container Deluxe Room’, ‘Container Suite’ and ‘Concrete Room’, you get the gist of what’s in store for you here. The establishment prides itself on being a “lodge for the urban explorer”, and offers a distinctly minimalist-industrial design to those looking for something sleek, unique and innovative.

Rainforest Bed & Breakfast

A unique 5-storey boutique hotel with a distinctly Southeast Asian feel, thanks to the abundance of wooden furniture and warm lighting, Rainforest Bed & Breakfast provides guests a truly rustic oriental ambiance for an authentic stay. The building itself is a lovely landmark that embraces a very old school feel, just perfect for anyone looking for a simple hidden gem in Bukit Bintang.

WOLO Hotel

WOLO Bukit Bintang is a contemporary boutique hotel that tries its best to wow guests with its creative style and intriguing decor. Mixing colours and textures with an interesting lighting style, the artistic vibe that you get upon entering the lobby is not unwelcome. We totally love the vintage touches here and there - brick walls, ornamental doors, marble fixtures - which go surprisingly well with the minimalist and monochromatic art pieces.

The Yard Boutique Hotel

Yet another hotel in the Bukit Bintang area, this strategically located boutique hotel melds subtly contemporary furnishings with colonial architecture, exuding an ambiance that is both welcoming and unpretentious. The theme of the hotel seems to be gardens and greenery, with a lovely open courtyard area being the main highlight of the establishment.
