You'll find the Shangri-La perched among tropical gardens but this is very definitely a city centre hotel and an excellent base from which to explore the Malaysian capital's cultural and entertainment hotspots. Book a table at the Revolving Restaurant, 282m above ground level in the nearby KL Tower, and see the whole city while you eat then pop back to the hotel for a late-night game of darts or snooker in the 'English country pub'.
Location
In the Golden Triangle, Kuala Lumpur's main commercial and shopping district.
