A 49-room design hotel slotted into the restored 1930s Art Deco Lee Rubber Building, smack in the middle of Chinatown. Raw concrete, plants everywhere and a rooftop saltwater pool with skyline views - and it has held a MICHELIN One Key since Malaysia's first 2025 selection.

🎟️ From about RM900/night♿

Kuala Lumpur's highest hotel stay, perched inside the Merdeka 118 tower with guest rooms way up between the 100th and 112th floors. Opened in August 2025 and straight into the 2026 MICHELIN Keys selection with One Key, so expect serious views over the old city and Petronas Towers from the bed itself.
