Else Kuala Lumpur

Else is a true ‘best of both worlds’ escape. Located amid the hustle of Kuala Lumpur but with a focus on serenity, nature and self-discovery, it immediately invites travellers to disconnect from the noise of daily life. Expect minimalist rooms, must-try restaurants and holistic wellness. Housed in the iconic 1930s Lee Rubber building, Else blends deco detailing and modern interiors – and perfectly bridges the gap between chilled country life and chic city style.

A focus on conscious living flows from the lobby through to the rooms and suites, where muted tones provide soothing surroundings. Downstairs, restaurants draw on nature, serving ‘comforting classics’ or contemporary rustic options. This modern-meets-rural connection continues outside, with peaceful infinity pools, meditation pods and plenty of space for relaxation and reflection.  There is also a sunken living room, dens and meeting rooms – for those in the know.

Strike out from the hotel and you’ll discover an energetic, captivating city starting in Chinatown - the beating heart of Kuala Lumpur’s creative and cultural district. From here, uncover colourful flea market stalls, sample the gastronomic wonders of Central Market (just minutes from the hotel) and stroll along the Klang River. For a more laid-back adventure, meander around the Perdana Botanical Gardens, breaking away from the bustling city into a leafy green paradise. Or visit the world renowned Dataran Merdeka – catching a game of cricket in Independence Square if you’re lucky.
