Restaurants and shops in the hotel
There is a restaurant called “MOSAIC” on the G floor where I had breakfast.
Among the many hotels in Kuala Lumpur, the breakfast buffet is the most popular here. Even those who did not stay at the hotel can have breakfast here, so people were waiting in line from 9am.
Many kinds of bread.
This is the Malaysian food corner with beef rendan and so on.
Malaysian people are composed of Chinese, Malay and Indian descent. This is the Indian corner with curry and biryani.
This is the Chinese corner with dim sum and porridge.
Eggs cooked on the spot.
There were many kinds of juices such as mango juice, grapefruit juice and orange juice.
This is the “Lounge on The Park” on the G floor. You can have some afternoon tea here.
As the name implies, facing KLCC Park, this lounge has a beautiful contrast between the brightness of the green trees outside and the solid interior of the hotel. After the evening, the number of Western customers increased, and there were many groups who enjoyed drinking and talking with friends.
I was able to have as many drinks as I like, including wine, beer and soft drinks.
There were many other restaurants and lounge bars. This is the “MO bar.”
This is Cantonese cuisine “Rai Po Heen.”
There was a gift shop called “MO SHOP.”
You can also buy Mandarin Oriental original products here. There were ballpoint pens, polo shirts, T-shirts, bath ropes, eco bags, etc.

Facilities in the hotel
There was an indoor pool, but it was not very big. There was a locker room on the same floor, and beach beds, umbrellas and towels can be borrowed. You can see the twin towers from the poolside. However, there is an “Aqua Restaurant & Bar” next to the pool, which is famous for its delicious pizza, and customers come from outside. Therefore, the pool is visible from the restaurant.
The pool is open from 7am to 10pm. At night, the Twin Towers are lit up, so the poolside has a fantastic atmosphere with water reflections. There were guards by the pool ready to help.
There was also a gym adjacent to the pool. There were exercise bikes, treadmills and so on. You can enjoy a nice view of the city while exercising.
You can have facials, body massages and get your nails done at the spa.

Hotel Surroundings
The hotel is located in the middle of Kuala Lumpur and is a perfect location for shopping and dining. It is within a 15-minute drive (taxi, grab, etc.) to major attractions such as museums and Central Market. Although it is not a place where the number of people decreases even at night, it is a country with many snatches and deductions, so I think you should always be careful even in malls. Alongside the pavilion, the popular giant shopping Morse code KLCC is next door. Suria KLCC has high brands such as Gucci, Prada and Louis Vuitton, as well as affordable items such as UNIQLO and ZARA and supermarkets, so I think it is a fun mall for men and women and people of all ages. There are also many affordable restaurants.
Suria KLCC

Access
It is about an hour drive from KLIA Kuala Lumpur International Airport. Located in the heart of Kuala Lumpur, it is adjacent to the popular Suria KLCC Mall, close to the KLCC Aquarium and many restaurants. It is usually safe, but it is best to watch out for snatchers.
The hotel is adjacent to Suria KLCC, a popular mall alongside the pavilion. There is a roof between the hotel and the mall so you won’t get wet in the rain.
Next to the hotel is KLCC Park, which is famous for its fountain shows. It is nice to take a walk in the morning when it’s still cool.
