Hotel Review
Probably one of the more magnificent hotels you'll stay in, not because of the luxury it provides, even though it does loads of that, but because this is a hotel with a heritage, and an icon of Malaysia. its glamour comes from a confluence of Portuguese, Chinese and Malay characteristics. The Orchid Conservatory restaurant, with its beautiful cornucopia of orchids, is stunning. As is the majestic spa with its art deco influence, 7 treatment rooms and enormous pool. Then there's the hotel itself which has been documented as a national heritage site. 176 beautiful rooms and suites boast simplicity, character, and history all at once! It's spectacular.
