Hotel staff was excellent and the room was very nice and new, the only thing I would say there was no kettle, tea, coffee or toiletries in the room, most other hotels for the same money provide these

The room is too close to the main road and it’s very noisy. Also the hot water is not working.

Great hotel, lovely decor, very helpful staff & good location.
However, comfort not so great as it was very difficult to sleep with motorbikes racing around outside in the early hours of the morning. Not sure if this is just a weekend thing!
The restaurant was also closed all evening for a private event, & it would have been good if this had been communicated beforehand.

In terms of cleaning the rooms left a little to be desired and could be improved. In terms of service they were all fantastic🙂. And when it comes to the options of breakfast there wasn’t many but from the options that there were available they were all super nice and super delicious.

We spent 1 night at this hotel and have fallen in love with it. We definitely will stay here again in the future.
We are sitting in the hotel’s restaurant right now. We checked out and knew we wanted to have lunch here before we left. The food & service is top notch. I am a retired Chef so I greatly appreciate good service & cuisine.
Great job!!

The rooms need to be uograded. The actual room did not look like the ones we saw online during booking. It looked like a regular cheap hotel/motel.

I can comfortably say that The Chow Kit is my favourite hotel in Kuala Lumpur. Everything was just right. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone who appreciates minimal design codes with a touch of heritage.

Claudia was helpful and friendly at check-in.
Room service took a while to deliver the dental kit. They also gave a kettle inside of an iron. At breakfast time, iced gencha came without ice.
Poor water flow at the sink.
All in all, we will most likely not return.

The decor was very tastefully done with very interesting details. Service staff were all friendly and attentive. Amenities not provided in the room but we could call to request for them and they were promptly delivered to the room (we requested for an iron and kettle). The towkay soh suite was spacious and had a great view. The cocktails and breakfast we had at the bar/restaurant were also delicious. Highly recommend this hotel!

Ambience was good, rooms were designed nicely but there the sound proofing was very bad. I can hear people slamming the doors and moving things at 7am, disturbing my sleep.

For the first time since a long time I haven’t been this type a concept hotel that fill with Kuala Lumpur culture from the 70’and 80’ vibes that bring back my childhood memories growing up there. It’s was an amazing experience even for a tight space in the middle of city, the vibes is everywhere.

A lovely up-scale boutique hotel. No pool or gym, but they are close to the historic Chow Kit Market and they are surrounded by lots of fun and unique dining options. The hotel bar and restaurant is also phenomenal!
