I loved my stay at the Else and highly recommend it to anyone visiting KL. It was the perfect boutique hotel experience. The service was impeccable and the hotel was beautifully curated - it had a lovely library, unique art work and luxe bathroom toiletries. I found the location very convenient as well. If you are a light sleeper I would recommend you book a room that overlooks the pool. My room faced the street and it was quite loud due to night time activities.

Perfect hotel in a perfect location for a city break. Luxury and serenity, right in the guts of the bustle of Chinatown. Every design detail was stunning and considered, right down to the kettle in the room and the buttons in the lift. From the wall art to the lobby chairs to the tiles in the pool; everything was beautiful it made you feel fancy but also full of heart so you felt truly comfortable. The staff across the board were an absolute delight, relaxed, friendly and helpful to a tee. Special mention for the breakfast wait staff who made the start of each day such a delight. The breakfast was excellent and beyond generous from food to service and all things in between. The nasi mamba was amazing, the granola was perfect, the coffee was great and the whole experience really put you in the best possible place to start the day. We looked a few different hotels in different areas and feel confident that we lucked out and ended up at the best of the best. LOVED everything about it and would stay here again in a heartbeat.
