Four Seasons Hotels and Resorts, one of the world’s leading luxury hospitality companies, and Venus Assets Sdn Bhd, an international property developer, announced plans for Four Seasons Hotel Kuala Lumpur, set to open in 2018.

The new hotel will be ideally located in the heart of the Golden Triangle neighbourhood, the city’s thriving business and financial district. The hotel will be part of a 65-storey mixed-use tower that will include 242 Four Seasons private residences; 27 serviced apartments; a 209-room Four Seasons hotel; and a five-floor, 300,000-square-foot luxury retail space.

As the latest addition to the city’s iconic skyline, Four Seasons Kuala Lumpur will be located in close proximity to major attractions, including the Petronas Twin Towers and the Kuala Lumpur City Centre, which features designer shopping, fine dining and a lively nightlife. The hotel will overlook a 50-acre KLCC park featuring lush gardens, water features, a wading pool and a jogging track.

“One of the most dynamic and fastest growing cities in the world, Kuala Lumpur is a key hub for both business and leisure travel, and an exciting destination for Four Seasons to establish a presence,” said J. Allen Smith, president and CEO, Four Seasons Hotels and Resorts.

The hotel will feature four unique dining options, including a Cantonese restaurant, lobby and rooftop pool bars and an all-day dining restaurant with views of the Petronas Twin Towers. Business travellers will enjoy the hotel’s executive lounge, spa, wellness-focused fitness centre and rooftop infinity pool that will offer panoramic views of the city and park.
