Staff at the reception and restaurant are very friendly. Good location near the LRT and monorail. Room was clean and towels smell fresh. Tried their breakfast, the French toast is very good! Will definitely be back soon!

Hotel's Favourite
This hotel was formally a Tune Hotel, which is part of Air Asia. It has now rebranded as the Chow Kit. We had a great time at this hotel for four nights. Close to the monorail station which can take you to other connection points so that you can catch trains all over KL. It was only two stops from Bukit Bintang which is kind of the nightlife area with tons of restaurants, upmarket and even standard level shopping malls. Check in staff were very friendly and efficient, as were the bar and restaurant staff. This hotel exudes a kind of quaint atmosphere, but we loved it and would not hesitate to stay there again. It was only about a 20 minute walk to Chinatown and Petaling Jaya markets also.

We organised a farewell at Momo's playground. The service provided by the team from the initial request for quotation to the execution of the event were really great. Our guests enjoyed the food served and commended on the cosiness of the event space. Carmen answered all our queries and accommodated all our requests. We would not hesitate organizing another event there again.

The hotel needs to work on cleanliness. I get that it’s a small hotel but you can’t relax on basic stuff like cleaning toilets properly. Our first room had a bathroom that smelled bad - I feel that could have been avoided. At least we were able to change rooms. Also it lacks amenities like a kettle in the room … the rooms are small and the TV doesn’t face the bed which is weird. Also can’t use the TV to watch Netflix or anything from my account because the apps haven’t been downloaded. That needs to be fixed. Overall it was a fair experience considering the price.

I did like to stay at the hotel with my partner. The hospitality of the staff was good. I felt warm when I’m in their restaurant bar. They did provide us the best quality of dishes. I like their rendang chicken, nasi ulam and their fish and chips very much. It’s delicious. I would definitely visit again with my partner again next time.

We at Tune Protect Life wanted to take a moment to express our deepest gratitude for the good service and dedication of your hotel and its incredible staff especially Ms. Izni & Ms. Rachel during our recent event- MRCA CEOs event hosted by Tune Protect Life. From the event planning/preparation, moment we arrived to the moment we departed, every aspect of our experience was marked by excellence, professionalism, and a genuine commitment to ensuring our event's success. The attention to detail in setting up the meeting room, audio-visual arrangements, lobby networking area and overall ambiance was just nice. Also credited to the Chef and the whole F&B team for the yummy delicious canapies served! Our attendees throughly enjoyed the networking night. Thank you again Ms. Izni & team for your exceptional service! Best regards Natalie ( Agile & Strategic Project Leads of Tune Protect Life)…
