Five years ago, W Hotels made its debut in Malaysia with the opening of W Kuala Lumpur. As a brand born in New York City, W brought that fast-paced, up-for-anything spirit to our side of the world—inspiring a fresh, contemporary approach to lifestyle experiences we know and
love, from culture to cuisine. Today, the city hotel continues to redefine the world of luxury by giving travellers the freedom to be true to themselves while being open to everything.
Ever-evolving with the times, W now caters to the new breed of travellers who are curious, charismatic and free-spirited. With its mission to create experiences that allow guests to do whatever they want, whenever they like, with whoever they please, W stands as a force to be reckoned with in KL's hospitality scene not by defying norms—but simply ignoring them. After all, our present culture is less about show and more about soul.
This is the W experience; this is Luxury, Liberated.

These are the five passion points that shape the W brand experience, and W Kuala Lumpur is no different. Guests are given the platform to stand for something, be it through open dialogues or vibrant events with a diverse community.
The hotel's curated music playlist sets the tone and draws the crowd together to live it up or unwind, whilst its vibrant design sets the scene for innovators and trendsetters to feel inspired. Beverage and food are equally
essential to fuel conversations around its dynamic spaces, ultimately creating a balance that keeps the body energised and living to the fullest.
W Kuala Lumpur features 150 stylish guest rooms and suites that embody both traditional and modern elements of the Jungle City—combining creature comforts like signature W beds with quintessential Malaysian accents like indigenous
Wau tassels and batik motifs. All accommodations boast stellar views of the iconic Petronas Twin Towers or Kuala Lumpur's skyline, complete with vibrant interiors that reflect the city's pulsating energy. If you're
looking for the beau ideal city escape, the Extreme WOW Suite (W's version of a Presidential Suite) promises to impress with a 520-square-metre living space featuring a private pool and terrace.

touches.
