"This hotel is very good. Rooms are clean and nice and staff are pleasant and helpful. It is located very close to Indian restaurants and shops. One downside is the lack of an intercom. It is not possible to contact reception from the room. Another downside is that the AC in the lobby/reception is quite weak. Another issue in reception is that the staff sit under some very powerful lights which generate so much heat that it's impossible to stand next to the desk to talk to them. I can't imagine...

Top Petaling Jaya Hotel Reviews

Hilton Petaling Jaya

Hilton Petaling Jaya

10/10 Excellent
"A wonderful stay from start to finish. We had a genuinely excellent experience at Hilton Petaling Jaya. The hotel was comfortable, beautifully run and, above all, the service was exceptional. Every member of staff we encountered was warm, professional and incredibly helpful. Our room was comfortable and well maintained, the public areas were welcoming, and everything felt very well organised. What really stood out, though, was the level of care from the team. Nothing felt like too much trouble, and we were made to feel very welcome throughout our stay. We were in Kuala Lumpur for a particularly busy few days, so coming back to a hotel that felt calm, efficient and dependable made a huge difference. A wonderful hotel with a terrific team. I would happily stay here again and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it."
