I love the hotel concept — simple, trendy, and very suitable for young travelers. The location is great, just 5 minutes from Petaling Street and 8 minutes from Central Market (Pasar Seni). However, there are several areas that need improvement: TV in the Room: It would be helpful to provide cable TV as an option. Currently, only local Malaysian channels are available, which can be quite limiting for guests who want more variety. Daily Housekeeping Service: I understand that linen changes may be done every two nights, but daily cleaning and tidying up the bed and room should be a standard service. This would greatly enhance the overall experience. Limited Staff at the Restaurant: Kudos to the lady who managed the breakfast service alone at the cafe; She was very skillful, and the food was amazing. However, other staff members only arrived at 8:00 AM, while breakfast service starts at 7:30 AM. It would be beneficial if additional staff could arrive earlier to prevent any chaos in the open kitchen and improve the guest experience. Overall, the rest of the experience was good. The reception staff were super friendly and talkative. My overall score for this hotel is 7.8/10. Thank you.

This is a brand new hotel under Ascott management. The room was spacious enough and the amenities are superb. So glad that I don't need to buy water since they provide 3M drinkable water tap on the mini pantry on the galley. The staff are friendly and nice. But the housekeepers are the best part of this hotel. Super friendly and nice. Very close to Masjid Jamek, Mydin, Petaling and Kuala Lumpur tower.

The location is quite far from tourist attractions, but it doesn't matter because public transportation is very close, just take GoKL, or walk about 300 m from Masjid Jamek station. Close to MyDin, a cheap chocolate shopping place, also about 10 minutes walking distance to Petaling Street. The advantage is that at night the atmosphere is not noisy and we can sleep peacefully after walking around all day. The staff are very friendly and helpful with whatever you need. Public facilities are very complete, you can even cook if you want, they will be happy to lend you eating or cooking utensils. There is a laundry that can wash clothes up to 10 kg with a token fee of RM21.60, there is a mini gym that can be accessed 24 hours. The check-in and check-out process is very easy. The room is very clean and beautiful, according to the picture shown. In addition to soap, shampoo, and toothbrushes, you are also given conditioner, body lotion, and handshoap. It would be better if a comb and cotton buds were provided. I will definitely stay here again next time.

The location is superb, its a walking distance (5-20 minutes) to Masjid Jamek, Petaling Street, and Bukit Bintang. Its also directly infront of GoKL bus stop (purple line), very handy if you have a touch and ' go card. Very recommended & cozy place, or they say"a new way to belong".

What a cute hotel with a colorful design, very clean, security check with guest card in front door while I'm back in the hotel at midnight and also friendly staff. Wanna come back here if I come to KL again. Oh but one thing that makes you tired of asking for things cause this hotel has no telephone in the bedroom so if you want to ask something you have to go to the lobby.

This is a good hotel even though the distance to the train station is a bit far, but the hotel is clean and can cook and do laundry, the employees can also explain well even though they don't seem to smile but are actually kind, even if they drop credit cards on the road they keep them and return them to me, this hotel is really OK.

Had a pleasant stay in Lyf Rajachulan! It feels like home since everything I need is in here. Free water on every floor, there is a public kitchen where I can borrow a spoon (which feels so homey!) Also there is a laundry service but I haven't tried it yet. The toilet amenities are complete, I don't even use my own: D so if you plan to visit Kuala Lumpur and stay in Lyf, just bring your belongings, and they provide anything you need. Although the location is quite far from lrt masjid Jamek (500 m is 6 mins walk, so it 's quite far I guess?) I feel relaxed because it 's not a busy neighborhood unless it 's after office hours, in front of the hotel there will be traffic congestion. But after all, I am really satisfied with the service. The receptionist was very humble, I could store my luggage after check out.
