Planning a staycation in Kuala Lumpur is a great way to tap into your wanderlust minus the expense of a flight ticket. Whether you're longing for a romantic getaway with your spouse or a city staycation with an incredible view of Petronas Twin Towers, there's no shortage of amazing hotels in the city. If you're looking for one of the best hotels for staycations in KL, you're going to love this one.
Situated in Bukit Bintang, a stylish staycation awaits at citizenM Kuala Lumpur. Surrounded by the bustling sights and sounds of the city, it's one of the best hotels in KL for city travellers. Part of the international hotel chain, there are only 3 citizenM hotels in Asia and this is one of them, besides Taipei North Gate hotel and Shanghai Hongqiao hotel!
Pride themselves for offering affordable luxury, you can definitely tell when you step into the artsy lobby lounge, which is scattered with unique lantern fixtures, striking furniture and multicoloured ceiling. If you're not a fan of queuing at the reception, citizenM Kuala Lumpur has a self-check-in counter that works just like the ones in the airport - just a few taps and you're good to go!
Perhaps the silver lining to the breezy self-check-in system is the chance to linger around the lounge. Besides making yourself comfortable on the designer couch with cute pillows, take the time to admire the carefully selected contemporary artworks from local and international artists or squeeze in a quick read before you head to your room.
...And when you finally do so, it's time to enjoy a city staycation that KL has to offer! citizenM Kuala Lumpur may be smacked down in the heart of the city, but the rooms are sound-proof complete with blackout blinds.
You can spend your day taking a nap on the XL king-size bed (we heard it's one of the cosiest in town!), update your Instagram feed thanks to the high-speed Wi-Fi, and freshen up in their powerful rain shower.
Since citizenM Kuala Lumpur is a 7-minute walk from Bukit Bintang MRT station, there are many attractions and shopping malls to discover including the Petronas Twin Towers, the Starhill Gallery, Jalan Alor, and Berjaya Times Square Theme Park!
If you're planning an affordable staycation in KL, we hope citizenM Kuala Lumpur fits the bill! For more staycation inspirations, check out more Insta-worthy hotels in KL for your next staycation in the city.
