Hyatt continues to expand in Malaysia’s capital with the opening of the Hyatt Regency Kuala Lumpur at KL Midtown. The striking new landmark was designed by celebrated Japanese architect Kengo Kuma and is located near the luxe neighborhoods of Dutamas and Mont Kiara. This opening marks the Hyatt Regency brand’s return to the city and joins the Park Hyatt that just debuted there earlier this month (as the city’s seventh hotel in the Hyatt portfolio).
The property blends natural materials such as wood, stone, and paper with contemporary design. The result is a serene environment that reflects Japanese heritage while celebrating Malaysia’s cultural richness. The hotel offers 306 guestrooms and suites, along with 104 fully serviced residences. With 15 room types and 22 suites, ranging from standard King Rooms to the exclusive Presidential Suite, the Hyatt Regency Kuala Lumpur caters to both short-term stays and extended visits. Guests in Regency Club rooms enjoy access to the Regency Club Lounge, which offers daily breakfast, afternoon snacks, and evening cocktails.
The fully serviced residences feature a private lobby entrance, a dedicated driveway, and one- and two-bedroom apartments with kitchenettes, dining areas, and living rooms. These are ideal for families, business travelers, and long-term stays. Residents enjoy exclusive amenities including a 32nd-floor infinity pool, a private lounge, and a dedicated Kidz Club for children.
The Hyatt Regency Kuala Lumpur offers four distinct culinary venues:
- Midtown Brasserie: All-day dining with global flavors and seasonal menus.
- Midtown Lounge: An elegant venue for artisanal patisserie, afternoon tea, and premium beverages.
- China House: Authentic Northern Chinese cuisine crafted by three master chefs, with highlights including a signature wood-fired Peking Duck roasted over rambutan wood.
- ENSŌ Izakaya & Bar: A multi-sensory Japanese dining experience featuring Tokyo Toyosu Market sashimi, Edomae-style sushi, rare sakes, Japanese whiskies, and a lively nightlife vibe with DJs and crafted cocktails.
Guests can unwind at the fifth-floor infinity pool or enjoy tropical cocktails at the Breeze Pool Bar, while residence guests savor panoramic views from their exclusive sky-high pool. A 24-hour Core Fitness Center and the AWAY-inspired wellness program offer travelers a way to get their workouts and relax during their stay.
The Hyatt Regency Kuala Lumpur at KL Midtown is a World of Hyatt® Category 2 property. Award stays cost only 6,500 to 9,500 points per night. Cash rates are also incredibly inexpensive with many days as low as $112.
Till Martin, General Manager of the Hyatt Regency Kuala Lumpur at KL Midtown, said:
We are delighted to introduce Hyatt Regency Kuala Lumpur at KL Midtown—a hotel that redefines urban hospitality through exceptional design, thoughtful amenities and an unparalleled location. With Kengo Kuma’s inspiring architecture and our commitment to offering a thoughtfully curated experience, we are poised to deliver a lasting impression for both business and leisure travelers. We aim to cultivate a dynamic hub for global events, fostering connections and elevating the city’s status as a premier destination for business, convention, lifestyle and tourism hub.”
Anthony’s Take: This property, like the Park Hyatt Kuala Lumpur, looks gorgeous and is so incredibly affordable. It’s great to see Hyatt continue to expand its luxury brands.
