EQ hotel is easily the best and most luxurious hotel we've ever stayed at, and we've been to a number of 5* hotels. We liked the complimentary drinks in the minibar, as well as all the complimentary items and amenities in the room. The hotel is beautiful inside and out, and its unique striped color lighting on the hotel exterior made it easy for us to find our way back from our walking excursions. If we ever visit Kuala Lumpur again, we will for sure stay at the EQ again.

Absolutely a stunning hotel, with beautiful interiors and exceptional service. I was looking forward to jogging to the nearby park, but the surrounding neighborhood felt quite rundown, almost like jogging around a dump, which was disappointing.

We liked the complimentary upscale coffee, drinks and snacks in the minibar, combs, and other vanity items. Our premium room had a view of both the Petronas Twin Towers and the KL Tower. The room is luxurious and refined, the best one we've stayed in. The unique striped color pattern on the exterior of the hotel walls made it easy for us to see and find our way back from walking excursions; very unique and stand out from nearby hotels.

Very large, spacious room. The room and hotel lobby were very clean and my wife really enjoyed her time at the spa.
The food at the restaurants were okay, but not as good as expected for the quality of the hotel and the prices.
Overall, 4.5 out of 5 stars.

EQ KL is a great 5 star hotel amd is very convenient for shopping and food with many great dining options nearby. Staff are very friendly and accomodating. Traffic around the hotel can be quite congested at peak times so if you go somewhere by car factor some extra time in peak hour. Planning to stay there again on our next KL trip.
