Dorsett Putrajaya has launched in the heart of Malaysia’s federal administrative capital of Putrajaya, offering business travellers a convenient retreat within walking distance to key Malaysian government offices.

Only 30-minute drive from the Kuala Lumpur International Airport and 10-minute from the Putrajaya ERL Station, the new hotel features 218 contemporary guest rooms with king beds or twin beds, walk-in showers, complimentary wifi, and 40-inch flat screen TVs.

Overlooking the scenic Putrajaya Lake, the all-day dining restaurant The View is helmed by specialty chef Shamsul Rizal; while the Dorsett Cafe is a casual deli with ready-to-go snacks and beverages. After hours, savour refreshing cocktails at the rooftop bar, with the unique Putrajaya city skyline.

For midscale meetings and conferences, the upscale hotel features a stylish pillar-less ballroom, with a capacity of up to 300 people, and five meeting rooms of various sizes. The ballroom can be divided into two separate meeting spaces, while the five meeting rooms can be combined as one large meeting venue.

Dorsett Putrajaya also houses the city’s first rooftop infinity pool, a well-equipped gymnasium, and an award-winning spa, which offers guests a rejuvenating experience after a long day at work. www.dorsetthotels.com/malaysia/putrajaya
