Distinctive Luxury in the Heart of Kuala Lumpur
Rising 46 stories above Kuala Lumpur’s vibrant Bukit Bintang district, The Orion Kuala Lumpur blends the privacy and comfort of a luxury residence with the service and refinement of a full-service hotel. Its collection of studios, two-bedroom and three-bedroom suites feature contemporary design, sweeping city views and thoughtful touches including plush bedding, luxurious linens, bathrobes and spa-inspired bathrooms. Select accommodations also feature full kitchens, making the hotel equally suited to short visits and extended stays.
Wellness and personalized service are central to the experience, with an indoor infinity lap pool, 24-hour fitness center, yoga studio and sauna, complemented by attentive concierge service. For business and social gatherings, the hotel offers intimate meeting and event spaces with advanced technology, bespoke catering and views across the Kuala Lumpur skyline.
Culinary experiences are equally curated to impress. The hotel’s All-Day Dining restaurant, ASTRA, serves modern Malaysian cuisine, while the lobby’s Orion Lounge offers light bites alongside a host of beverages and bespoke cocktails. In addition, level 43 of the hotel is dedicated to dining and relaxation, with four distinct venues: a Private Asian Dining Room; KOBE SANCTUARY – Private Kobe Beef Dining for teppanyaki; Sushi TOKA for omakase sushi; and a Cigar & Wine Bar. Guests can reach the floor via the hotel’s lifts or take a dedicated express glass elevator, enjoying sweeping city views along the ascent.
Malaysia remains a critical growth market for Wyndham, characterized by a robust tourism sector and a dynamic hospitality landscape. The introduction of Registry Collection Hotels aligns with Wyndham’s strategic objective to expand its current footprint and development pipeline within the country.
