This is NOT a promotional video. I pay for all of my flights and hotels (and I always tell you how much!) so I can be as honest and impartial as possible. I do not receive any special treatment that wouldn’t otherwise be publicly accessible, in fact, the hotels and airlines have no idea about my visit and that's the way I like it!

I love your comments on the property. it helps a lot when deciding where to stay.

Stayed there couple of months ago. Although I didn’t eat at their restaurants, we enjoyed our three nights there. We had upgrade for the corner roomier room with beautiful views of the city.

[MegaWeebles]

Great video, nicely filmed. Really helping me make a decision on where to stay. Thumbs up given, thanks.

[tanletran]

you have much better the reception experience at MO KL than my experience with MO Singapore when I was send to hot outdoor pool to wait for my room without any drink voucher offering

[thekenthouse]

Appreciative of your thorough analysis of each property and honest objectivity. Good luck growing. Subscribed.

Aaah ... the pool at MOKL. One of my favourite places on this planet. I've stayed there half a dozen times and just seeing the footage makes me relax. It's worth paying for the club rooms - the lounge is really nice, the food / wine / cocktails are great and so is the service. I think your "upgrade" was a downgrade, the park view is much better. The pool deck view and the adjacent mall with an MRT station in the basement makes the location unbeatable in KL.

[well-blazeredman]

Surprised at that lowish, breakfast-included room rate - and some of the food offering is reasonably-priced too. Biggest surprises? The journey-time from KLIA and that wonderful back-garden. I would consider staying here when I'm next in KL.
P.S. Just back from re-viewing some of your Rio videos. I'll compliment you on your very tidy playlists.

Thanks for this vlog. I’m hoping you had an amazing Christmas! Have an amazing New Year as well. Ciao.

Kuala Lumpur is certainly a budget-friendly city for luxury hotel lovers :)

[hairemohamadkadari]

You should try Four Seasons Kuala Lumpur next time. 😊😊😊

[AnonymousBloke]

Another great Flip Flop review.

Much appreciated.

[dezspice]

Very well made video. Gained urself a new subscriber ✌️

[petercowling]

Thanks for the review of an interesting MO property. Very strange to see the brand at this price point, offering facilities and service that are in keeping with the price but not the brand. Came to your channel via Bali videos. Love to see your thoughts on St Regis Nusa Dua and a few more Ubud properties, when you can :) Thanks!

[getdachoppa]

Hey Kev, been a subscriber for a while, and this review was incredibly informative. Going to be in Singapore for an extended Eid holiday next week, so I'm making plans for a weekend visit to Kuala Lumpur since its a short flight away, and it has a Hard Rock Cafe so I can get more stuff for my international HRC collection. Also looking at the Intercontinental, but having viewed many, many of your vids, I'll go with this and make certain to ask for a park view room. Being from NYC, I'd much rather see greenery than more buildings.

[denisesommer-roque]

So happy you are back in the Far East!!! Somehow all the resorts and hotels have this “je ne sais quoi” that makes them feel extra luxurious and as a guest you feel extra special 🥰 Heading to Bali end of April and re watching your reviews there to make up my mind where to stay 🎉 Thank you for another wonderful video! 🙏🏼

I stayed here for 4 nights a couple months ago and pretty much agree with everything you covered here. Fantastic location, nice pool, dated rooms, sufficient breakfast, and average service. I also booked with Amex FHR and thought it was a great value. I had no issues booking the spa appointment though. Scheduled a much needed massage after a trip to the Batu Caves.

[travelbliss]

I think MO group in early days in Asia were luxury but not the Ultra luxury hotels which start in early 2000s with glitzy ads featuring Movie stars with NYC London Barcelona etc. See the difference in their property in KL, Jakarta, SG which are luxury business hotels completely has different vibes vs NYC, London etc. Thus it also translates why Jakarta and KL properties charge $150 for rooms vs $500-1000 for London NYC.

[markfellows]

Another great review as always. A little surprised Mandarin Oriental would let their standard slip despite the pricing. On a side note FF do you use a phone and gimbal? Smooth camerawork.

[dewantowijono]

I agree with your opiniom, whether you get room even for free, for a class like Mandarin Oriental they 100% should fix all the oldish furnitures for the sake of Mandarin Oriental. I often find myself not treated the same when I dine with voucher, although i got it from gift after bought branded items.

Hello Kevin, Thanks for this video. I'm looking to spend 2 or 3 nights in KL later this year. What's your favorite hotel in KL?
