Dining

On-site restaurants

Flock

Sprawled across the 8th floor, this all-day dining destination features a massive open kitchen and a focus on sustainable, locally sourced ingredients. The menu showcases a modern twist on Pan-Asian favorites, ranging from charcoal-grilled meats and fresh seafood to creative plant-based dishes, all served in a high-fashion, social atmosphere.

YEN

Located on the 11th floor, YEN redefines traditional Chinese dining with its imperial-inspired ambiance and striking modern design. The restaurant is famous for its inventive dim sum creations and signature dishes like crispy golden duck with caviar, offering a sophisticated culinary experience that bridges heritage and innovation.

WET Deck

Perched on the 12th level, WET Deck is the city's ultimate "see-and-be-seen" social hub. By day, it is a breezy poolside retreat for al fresco dining; by night, it transforms into an electrifying bar. Guests can enjoy bold cocktails and Asian-inspired tapas with the most iconic, up-close view of the Petronas Twin Towers.

Living Room

Tucked into the hotel's lobby level, the Living Room masquerades as a stylish café by day, specializing in the creative "Let’s Ngopi" afternoon tea. As the sun sets, it transitions into a sleek speakeasy-inspired bar, serving meticulously crafted specialty cocktails and premium spirits in a hip, energetic setting.

Honest review

What could be better

  • The hotel needs to improve room soundproofing or adjust the volume levels at the rooftop bar to ensure that loud music does not disturb guests' sleep.
  • Management should conduct rigorous room inspections to fix malfunctioning electronics, ensure water quality in bathtubs, and secure bathroom fixtures to prevent guest injuries.
  • Front desk training should focus on technical accuracy with room keys, while dining policies—such as including tea in "High Tea" packages—must be clearly communicated to avoid guest frustration.

How we choose

Every hotel on this list is cross-checked across Google, Booking.com, Tripadvisor, Agoda and Hotels.com — plus first-hand traveler accounts on Reddit, Instagram, and TikTok. We screen aggressively for fake or incentivised reviews and weight only verified, recent, substantive guest feedback. We accept no paid placements and no sponsored reviews. When affiliate links earn a small commission, we disclose it; it never influences which hotels appear here.
