Hotel Stripes Kuala Lumpur

Located in the Golden Triangle area of Kuala Lumpur, Hotel Stripes offers their guests celebrity treatment complemented by world-class service. Each of the 184 boutique rooms at Stripes puts a stylish spin on the history and character of its lively neighbourhood. From the toned down palette of the rooms to the large scale black-and-white photographs of retro Jalan Kamunting, each room embodies both historical and contemporary Kuala Lumpur.

Top Tips

1. According to some previous guests, the neighbourhood can be quite hard to describe to taxi drivers (and in general, Malaysian taxi drivers can be quite a handful). With that in mind, call ahead and either ask the hotel staff for specific directions or to arrange a hotel transfer service for you.

2. Because of the building’s structure, some of the rooms have obstructed views. So if having a view is high up on your list, make sure to request a room with an unobstructed view when you book your stay. Bonus tip: ask for a room with a view of KL Tower.

3. If you’re planning on having a chilled out day by the pool, make sure to plan ahead and head to the pool deck early in the day. It is quite a small area especially when you compare it to the number of rooms available at Hotel Stripes. Bonus tip: the pool deck has amazing views of KL Tower.

4. There are 3 dining options at Hotel Stripes; Brasserie 25, The Snug, and Man Tao Bar. Brasserie 25 is a rustic French restaurant that serves delights like baked camembert, steak frites, and creme brulee, The Snug is a cosy restaurant on the second floor that serves a buffet breakfast every morning, and Man Tao Bar is a delightful poolside speakeasy that serves delicious share plates and tasty cocktails.

5. If you bring/rent a car during your stay at Hotel Stripes, be aware that there is no non-valet parking onsite so you will have to pay the RM10 a day for valet parking (plus, there’s usually a wait every time you need your car). We suggest sticking to Uber or GrabCar.
