L.V.X Collection Hotels in Petaling Jaya

Exploring One World Hotel, Malaysia The hotel's English name is One World Hotel, but its Chinese translation is 'Wanda Hotel,' which can be misleading as it has no connection to the famous Chinese real estate company. Similarly, the adjacent One Utama shopping mall is referred to as 'Wanda Plaza' in Chinese, also without any actual relation. I ended up booking this hotel for an exhibition I was attending. It's considered a mid-to-high-range option in the Kuala Lumpur area. I flew from Penang to Kuala Lumpur in the evening, and the taxi ride from the airport took about an hour. Upon arrival, there was no bellhop to assist with luggage when I got out of the taxi; I only received help once I was inside the lobby. After checking in, despite my assurance that I could manage my bags, the bellhop insisted on taking my luggage to the room. Fortunately, I had some Malaysian Ringgit cash on me, so I tipped 5 MYR. The next evening, when I returned to collect my stored luggage before heading to the airport, I noticed the same bellhop at the front desk, waiting for guests checking in, even for those with just a small 20-inch carry-on. The hotel opened in early 2008, and there's a plaque at the entrance stating it was personally inaugurated by the Sultan of Selangor at the time. The breakfast was fantastic, with an extensive spread of options. The swimming pool was also good. Overall, it was a pleasant stay.
