Had a wonderful stay here. We
Had a wonderful stay here. We decided to upgrade to club level for $A53 a night which gave us full breakfast, afternoon tes (which we didn't need) and a coctail in the club lounge. This turned out to be 2 hrs of all the drink you could drink plus wonderful food (no need to go out and eat) and fantastic staff. Well worth it

After complaining a great hotel
Upon arrival a very old room was provided. Dirty floor, dirty shower and ....blood on the bedclothes. Disgusting. After complaining we were provided with another clean room, but only the next day.

We booked at Istana because of
We booked at Istana because of the location and also because there was a 25% discount offer. It proved to be a great choice, ideal location, quiet, wonderful food at the hotel restaurant. We had asked to check in early and because the hotel was very full, they upgraded us to a club room, a suite, and we gained entry on arrival at 7.15 in the morning. The personal service we received was the highest ever.

We stayed at the Istana many years
We stayed at the Istana many years ago when it was very new. At that time we informed anyone who was interested that we gave it 7 stars! Now it is one hotel of many in the Golden Triangle; however the staff are exceptional and still fully deserve our very own 7 star rating.

An excellent hotel and good value.
An excellent hotel and good value. The staff were all excellent, friendly and efficent. The food was of an excellent standard, particularly in the Urban restaurant ( slightly hidden away ). The lounge bar area had entertainment every night and the waitresses always welcomed us with a smile. Any problems were sorted out quickly and efficently. We would recommend this hotel to anyone visiting KL.

Great hotel and close to Bintang
Great hotel and close to Bintang Walk shopping streets. Great dinner buffer - 2 for the price of 1 when we were at the hotel. AUD$ reached RM3.21. It cost me only AUD$350 for 5 nights stay at the hotel. Excellent timing for AUD$ to reach record highs for my holidays. Hotel is great for family and food stalls at the back of the hotel.

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay in
Thoroughly enjoyed our stay in a 'club room' for wedding anniversary, staff very friendly and helpful, hotel in a wonderful location in centre of KL, close to everything. Only negative, staff in the Spa ignored emails sent before arrival to pre book a special treat and were not very friendly or helpful when we tried to book on arrival. (They pulled the old 'not understand English so well') In the end we decided not to bother with them and instead found very good Spa treatments offered outside the hotel at much better prices !!!
