I really enjoyed my 3 nights stay at Sleeping Lion Suites because:
1) New hotel, so everything still new and furnishing updated, fast elevator
2) Love the reception area, very modern design, circular counter
3) Less than 3 mins easy walk to Pavillion, you can see Pavillion from the entrance lobby, impossible to get lost
4) Walking distance to Lot 10, Jalan Alor, Sungei Wang, you know the drill
5) The skydeck/skybridge is open 24hrs, magnificent view in the morning and nightime too. You can see Twin Tower, Pavillion, KL Tower, Merdeka Tower, TRX (The Exchange 106) tower, make sure to take photo there, you will look good with portrait mode too. The lighting was on point during day time
6) The rate was competitive for the location
Other things to note:
a) The surrounding area can appear "unsafe" at night but it was allright during my stay, there were many security guards at other nearby buildings
b) Easy to get Grab but it can be challenging for weekend nights, I was travelling back to hotel using Grab on Saturday night, there was massive jammed at Bukit Bintang which the driver told me it was normal for weekends, but I have been to KL many times, that traffic jam was bad, standstill from infront of Sungei Wang and even after 30 mins near Lot 10 the car was barely moving so I had to walk to the hotel, which took me less than 5 mins haha. So yeah, weekends traffic can be that bad so I suggest to take train or just spend time at Bukit Bintang area.
