          The Ritz-Carlton Kuala Lumpur has a classy new look.
          The transformation, which has taken more than a year
          of planning and craftsmanship, marks a new phase in
          the hotel’s evolution.
          Since its opening in December 1997, the 364-room
          Ritz-Carlton Kuala Lumpur has striven to offer the
          highest level of personalised service and facilities.
          It is a landmark in the prestigious Golden Triangle
          district of Malaysia’s capital and recognised as one of
          the top five butler-service hotels in the world.
          The new design for the luxuriously-appointed guest
          rooms, suites and public areas is fresh and modern
          while embracing the hotel’s classical style. The
          hotel’s famous butlers also remain the personification
          of service excellence for which the hotel is world-  PUTTING ON THE RITZ IN KL
          renowned. From unpacking and packing to arranging
          car transfers to organising the perfect itinerary for
          shopping, dining and entertainment, these highly
          trained personnel play an integral part in creating a
          flawless stay.
          The Ritz-Carlton Kuala Lumpur has also established
          itself as one of the best places to dine in KL,
          with a portfolio of fine restaurants. Li Yen, the
          hotel’s award-winning Cantonese restaurant, is
          an enduring favourite while Sunday brunch at the
          hotel, now served in The Cobalt Room, offers a
          spread of signature roasts and fresh seafood as
          well as artisanal cheeses and decadent desserts
          accompanied with Champagne and wines.
