First Impression – M Summit 191
As you drive, or walk, to M Summit 191, it is actually quite hard to notice the entrance as it was pretty hidden behind an alley. Look for the logo!
If you’re driving, you’re in for a treat! M Summit 191 has an Automated Tower Parking System! Drive in to the car park, take a ticket, and you can drive to the garage. The elevator will take your car up automatically.
Once you’ve parked your car, head to the lift area and take the lift to level 14. The lobby of M Summit 191 is located at level 14, along with the gym as well.
To be honest, the lobby is pretty small but it serve its purpose. To make up for the lack of space, the lobby offers view of Komtar and the surrounding of the beautiful Georgetown!
The gym is also located at this level.

The Skye – M Summit 191
If you’re looking to host a birthday party, wedding, or corporate event, look no further than The Skye! Located 20 floors above the ground, The Skye is a paradise not known to many. The Skye features a glass house that can cater to 60 people, and a linked interior hall with a capacity of 120 people. Both areas are fully air-conditioned with garden-themed decorations.
Final Thoughts
M Summit 191 is perfect for those who are looking for an apartment-like hotel where space, comfort, and privacy are of utmost importance. There are also different type of rooms to choose from, so you will always get a surprise by staying here. Furthermore, the rooms are big for a family of 2 adult + 2 children, or 3 adults.
The only downside however, is the fact that there’s no in-house restaurant hence no breakfast is served. Swimming pool is also not available at this hotel, but why head to the pool when there’s so many to explore around Georgetown!
We would like to thank Wani, Sha and the M Summit 191 team for their hospitality and for hosting us for 2 nights! We thoroughly enjoyed out stay.
