SUITE STAYCATION: ONE NIGHT IN KL’S NEWEST OLDEST HOTEL, EQ KUALA LUMPUR
Lifestyle Asia – EQ Kuala Lumpur is a timeless treasure, a hotel that many would have known of before its transformation.
You’ve probably heard of EQ Kuala Lumpur, but perhaps not the same that you know of. Before it became the five-star hotel it is today, it was known as Hotel Equatorial Kuala Lumpur. Built in 1973, the hotel was a focal point for many locals and gained its reputation as a five-star hotel destination around town. In 2012, it closed its doors for a full redevelopment and lay in waiting for seven years before making its grand return to the Golden Triangle.
Check out our staycation suites:
- The Presidential Suite is for the ultimate luxury getaway; usually reserved for the chief!
- For those interested in wow factor and a hotel room with an outdoor jacuzzi, the Aha suite is for you!
- For space and a suite with KL city views you can’t go past our executive suites.
- But if you just want that studio suite feeling – level up to a separate living room with elegant dining.
