Located in the heart of Damansara Heights, five kilometres from the city centre, the luxurious 312-room property is within walking distance to The Pusat Bandar Damansara MRT station and 55 minutes to Kuala Lumpur International Airport.

Designed by Wilson Associates, the hotel’s interior blends local heritage with a sophisticated feature wall, complemented by art pieces and sculptures that pay homage to the rich Malaysian and French heritage and culture.
