Good location to KLCC and Bukit

Good location to KLCC and Bukit Bintang. Near the LTR monorail so transport is convenient. Clubs aplenty around the hotel making it easier to get back after a all nights out. Service was ok although housekeeping took a while to come to clean up the room. Friendly staff and good coencierge service. Rooms were nice, clean and tidy with everything in good condition. Had a great stay and will be willing to come again.

The staff at the Hotel Equatorial

The staff at the Hotel Equatorial went out of their way to ensure all our needs were covered. I would definately suggest this hotel to anyone. Only suggestion would be for them to have king size beds. The club access was excellent.

Great Location

The hotel was in a great location. Walking distance from Petronas Towers and a few malls. Very close to a variety of dining choices. Dining in the hotel was great but expensive. Because it is so close to Petronas Towers, you can get a bit more sleep if you want to wake up early (0630) to get tickets for the Tower. The rooms were beautiful. I paid for Standard the first night and then Deluxe for the last 2 nights. Not much of a difference in the rooms. The Deluxe was slightly bigger but you are better off paying for standard because you just pay for a bit extra space when paying for Deluxe.

Ideal Location for down town KUL.

The Hotel is walking distance from Petronas Towers. At Petronas monorail can take you to KL Sentral. several food courts and shops abound at petronas. Next to the Eqatorail hotel two buildings down at Antharabangsa building lobby you have excellent Indian and Thai restaurants. Walk two more blocks next to crown plaza hotel you have a huge supermarket called Pavilion.

Not too far from KLCC, which was good. But they don't provide complimentary internet connection unless you willing to pay $6per hour.
