D'Majestic Place by Swiss Garden, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia

HOTEL RATING: 8/10

Hello, my dear readers! Welcome back, and I hope you've been well and have been looking forward to my next blog post. Well today, I'll be talking about a hotel in Kuala Lumpur! I knew I'd get around it somehow, someday, and the day is today! Hahaha! Let's head on to the overview of this hotel now, shall we?


Overview
So, D'Majestic Place by Swiss Garden is rated a 4-star hotel that is centrally located in the heart of Kuala Lumpur at 376 Jalan Pudu, 55100 Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. It is said to be only 10 months old, so it is a relatively new hotel! The hotel is 900m from Sungei Wang Plaza, 2.3km from Petronas Twin Towers, 2.4km from Suria KLCC and the Kuala Lumpur International Airport is 43km away. There are many hawker stalls, massage parlors and convenient stores around. Oh, a small 7-Eleven stands right next to the hotel!

One-Bedroom Apartment
So, I checked-in on the 24th of June, 2016, and it was RM850 for a 2 night stay in their One-Bedroom Apartment, and the price was inclusive tax and service charge. 

When you first enter the room, this is what you'll see; a kitchenette, a fridge, a washing machine, a dining table with chairs, a two-seater sofa, and a coffee table. Straight ahead, if you follow the light, the bright light guiding you, it'll be to the...bedroom. Hahaha!

Everything in the kitchenette works. Seriously though. From the cold fridge to the tap and the basin, from the kettle to the microwave, it all works. Hahaha! I mean, based on my previous experiences, either the fridge felt like a sauna instead, or the kettle was giving out some free rust water tasting. Urgh.

The One-Bedroom Apartment is a 65m² room with a choice of only a large double bed. View wise, I got the room which overlooked the streets. It's honestly not such a bad thing because through it, I was able to gauge if the streets were busy, and if it was faster to walk to the nearby malls instead of hailing a cab. Right in front of the bed would be a long work desk with a flat-screen TV hung on the wall. Many storage compartments can be seen as well around the room. A dressing table could be found right in front of the bathroom beside the wardrobe, and that's what I call a legit dressing table. With it comes a large mirror that sits right in front of you, awaiting the vain side of you to come about. Hahaha!

The Bathroom
The One-Bedroom Apartment's bathroom is just amazing. I like how the basin area, toilet area, and the shower area are all separated. It makes everything that much more spacious and of course, privacy will always be in check. But, but, but, do note that there are NO locks for either of the doors. Hahaha! Your trust game must be hella strong then. The shower area only comes with a standing shower, but I think it's more than enough, and the basin sits on a marble table, giving you the extra space to put your personal items which I absolutely appreciate! Pssstt, the glass that divides the areas are all frosted, so don't worry about someone peeking at ya'. And if you're wondering how I managed to take pictures of the toilet and the shower area since the dividers are frosted, well, let me tell you - I STOOD ON A CHAIR, TIP-TOEING TO GET THE SHOTS. Appreciate my effort yet? Hahaha!

Pool Area
If there's one thing this hotel in known for, it'll be for their infinity pool. The view up there is just breathtaking. Okay, it's definitely not "the" best spot in KL, but hey, you get what your money's worth. Hahaha! Before heading to the pool area, they'll be a lounge area where people can just sit around to smoke, drink, or even read. With high bar stools and small neon lights at night, it's a pretty cool place to just chill at night.

 I would rate this hotel a 8/10 because this hotel's location is pretty much strategic. It's of walking distance to many hawker stalls and convenient stores, and also to a few malls nearby. The few points that I will have to minus out would be because of the water heater in the shower. It just didn't seem to work even after the maintenance guy was sent up to fix the issue. The other miss would be a no in-room dining service available. But apart from that, everything is good. The staff were helpful and polite, the rooms were good, heck, even exceeded my expectations. I hope this post has helped you narrow down your options if you're looking for a place to stay around Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia! Till then. xx
