Tourexpi
Located between levels 75 and 114 of the iconic Merdeka 118 – the tallest skyscraper in Asia Pacific, the hotel provides discerning travelers a refined home in the sky with unparalleled views of the Malaysian capital’s skyline.
“The Park Hyatt brand hits a milestone at 50 properties globally, adding its first hotel in Malaysia with the debut of Park Hyatt Kuala Lumpur – also marking an important breakthrough for the brand within Southeast Asia and worldwide,” said David Udell, Group President, Asia Pacific, Hyatt. “This makes for an exciting chapter for Hyatt’s brand growth in the region, with three new properties opening in Kuala Lumpur within a year, an expansion of diverse offerings.”
Guestrooms & Suites – Your Home in the Sky
Each of the 252 guestrooms and suites is a private sanctuary, where floor-to-ceiling windows reveal sweeping views of the city and shutters allow for an illumination of natural light within the space. Thoughtfully designed for both relaxation and inspiration, the suites feature expansive living areas, a full bath with a separate rain shower and aromatherapy shower steamer, double vanity, a walk-in dressing room, personal study area, and in select rooms, private dining spaces overlooking the cityscape.
Cultural Imprints – From Modern Perspectives to Timeless Traditions
Interiors by G.A Group are inspired by the vernacular beauty of the traditional Malay Kampung house. Sculptural centrepieces set a striking first impression, while meticulous artisanal detailing throughout creates sophistication above the city. Perforated brass screens, etched with batik canting patterns, balance openness with intimacy. The natural timber accents and woven textures are inspired by traditional basket weaving and Peranakan textures, introducing an organic warmth. The space is complete with a stunning array of artwork by world-renowned artists celebrating the colors and natural forms of Malaysia. Curated by Artlink, it is intended as a private collection of local craft and modern art.
A guided experience through Merdeka 118 Precinct is available with exclusive access to the historical landmark Stadium Merdeka where Malaysia’s Independence was declared, Al-Sultan Abdullah Mosque, the Merdeka Textile Museum, and Merdeka 118 building, uncovering the architectural significance and cultural narratives behind Malaysia’s iconic location.
“Merdeka 118 will be a catalyst to uplift communities and enhance Kuala Lumpur’s long-term vibrancy as part of Warisan KL, an initiative to celebrate heritage and revitalise the city. It plays an important role in supporting Kuala Lumpur’s cultural regeneration and heritage tourism,” said YM Raja Tan Sri Dato’ Seri Arshad Raja Tun Uda, Group Chairman of PNB. “We are excited to welcome the Park Hyatt brand to Malaysia as part of this landmark project which will unlock potential and build pride.”
