Hello all,

I got trouble choosing these hotels in Kuala Lumpur. The purpose of my stay is to celebrate my anniversary with my fiancee and we will be travelling to Kuala Lumpur for 3D2N.

- Renaissance
- Impiana KLCC
- Novotel

Budget: RM250 per night.

I had read many reviews from Trip Advisor. Honestly, they are not helping. Some say good and bad, even worst. I really don't want my high expectation of these hotel to be drain away due to bad experience.

If that's the case, I will rather spend the MYR250 per night on somewhere else. Decent stay such as Sentral and Cititel Express and Enjoy good buffet and food.

What do you all think?

EDIT: No Comment from others. Adui.

I have been to all of your hotel choices.

Renaissance : Very big hotel with amenities and great swimming pool. However, service in Renaissance are up and down, sometimes great and sometimes slow. 5 Star Hotel. I never had bad experience with Renaissance KL.

Impiana : Nice boutique alike. Its more towards traditional rather than modern. Small and pool get very crowded when occupancy rates are higher because their infinity pool are small. 4 Star

Novotel : Its business oriented hotel. Great business facilities. Room are smaller. 4 star

My choice : For anniversary and food at hotel, I would choose Renaissance. Very great place to relax and romance. Review for Renaissance on Tripadvisor getting bad because they compared it with same standard 5* hotel like Westin, Grand Millenium or even Traders/Mandarin Oriental. Try to search great deal at Streetmart for Renaissance. An upgrade voucher are very good to get room upgrade. They even upgrade me to Renoir suites after combining Marriott Gold and upgrade voucher coupons.

P/s : Try to get West wing instead of East wings. The ambience are nicer. Btw, how high your expectation are?

Renaissance: The swimming pool is really attractive.

I don't expect to be treated like a King, but I expect the basics of 5 Star Hotel (if I staying at a 5 Star) - Really Clean and spotless Room and good customer service.

I will be flying across the sea to KL to celebrate the anniversary, so I don't want to disappointed with the amount I paid. If I know I will be disappointed, I don't mind staying in a decent budget hotel like Sentral and spent the money on gift and good food. Like people always quote, it is easier to get disappointed if you are expecting more.

That's what I mean.

If your expectation just like 5 star, I guess you would never disappointed (Don't compare with luxury 5 star ya). The ambiance, environment really suit your needs. How much you need to pay for Renaissance? You can have romantic dinner at Med@Marche too. Last weekend, I bought voucher from Myvoucheronline and he throw me some upgrade voucher. I use them straight away after some negotiation with duty manager.

Myvoucheronline definitely has good deal! Thanks.

Since you have first-hand experience staying at Renais Suit, what is the difference compare to West Wing Deluxe Room? Bigger Bathtub?
