Ramada Suites by Wyndham KLCC offers comfortable accommodations in the heart of Malaysia’s capital city and easy access to shopping malls, such as the Pavilion Kuala Lumpur, and landmark buildings like the Petronas Twin Towers. Located in the middle of the country’s largest city, you’ll be a stone’s throw away from top restaurants and exciting nightlife, as well as the KL Monorail Station and MRT Station.
I decided to take the MRT and try to walk to the hotel, and despite it was a sunny day, I found the walk to be pleasant with some cool buildings and cafes along an unusually quite alley in a rather very busy part of KL.
From afar, Ramada Suites by Wyndham KLCC caught my attention as being on of the taller buildings within the area. One can easily spot the hotel from the MRT station. The walk took me around 10 minutes from MRT Bukit Bintang to the hotel.
Upon entering the hotel, I was greeted by a wall of rather amazing collection of awards being awarded to Ramada Suites by Wyndham KLCC. There were awards of being the Best Business Class Hotel, Gold Award for 4 Star City Centre Hotel, as well as other recognitions from your usual hotel booking sites such as booking.com, Agoda and Expedia.
Check-in was slightly slow, there was 1 lady in front of me and it took a good 10 minutes before it was my turn. However, my check in was pretty smooth and once the formalities was done I was directed to my room on the 15th floor.
I was very amazed by the design of the corridor outside of my hotel room. As you can see from the picture I took, it feels symmetrical and somehow very ‘soothing’ to see LOL!
Upon entering the room, I realized the room was somewhat an ‘L’ shape with a narrow walkway leading to a wider living area and sleeping area along with an extended balcony with stunning view of the KL Tower.
The room itself is considered large and spacious for couples. It is equipped with a dining table and a complete kitchenette for your perusal. There is also a simple mini bar with complimentary coffee and tea bags, as well as 2 bottle of mineral waters.
The bathroom, however, was slightly smaller than I imagined but it was sufficient. As the saying goes, The sparrow may be small, but all its vital organs are there. There is a standing shower separated from the toilet, which I absolutely appreciates. All your standard toilet amenities are also provided.
Basic Toilet Amenities Standard Toilet
The living area is also very comfortable with a small sofa and table provided. One can lounge lazily on the sofa and gobble down some beer, and watch their favorite movies on the 50-inch HD TV. The bed is slightly small considering they market the room as ‘Studio Executive King’. Personally, I feel that the bed is more of a largen Queen size bed than your standard King size bed. Nevertheless, the bed was more than sufficient for 2 person to sleep comfortably with each having their own ‘private’ area.
Next, I headed up to the 9th floor where the swimming pool and gym was located. During CMCO, guest will have to register to use the swimming pools and gym. Only 2 person are allowed per session, and each session last a maximum of 1 hour. As I went during weekday, I was able to use the pool without booking it, as there was so little guest in the hotel. It was raining some 30 minutes before, so I assumed the other guests are snuggling under their blanket.
There’s a kid’s pool as well as the adult’s pool. The adult’s pool is an infinity pool overlooking the KL skyline and you can have a peek at the KL Tower as well. The gym was well-equipped and very spacious with proper social distancing rules observed. The one thing I liked about the gym is that one can have an intense workout while overlooking the infinity pool and skyline of the KL city center.
At night, we headed out to the balcony and as expected, we are able to get a glimpse of the KL Tower from our balcony. I begged lady boss to have a picture with the KL Tower and to test out the night mode on my new iPhone 12.
Overall, I enjoyed my stay at Ramada Suites by Wyndham KLCC and I would like to extend my gratitude to J, Sam and the team for hosting us and for their hospitality. The only downside of our stay was that the hotel restaurant was undergoing renovations, hence no breakfast provided. Well, I guess that is another reason for us to be back again at Ramada’s.
