Malaysia’s first Sofitel hotel opened its doors on September 2017 with the unveiling of Sofitel Kuala Lumpur Damansara. Nestled within Damansara Heights, the luxurious 312-room Sofitel Kuala Lumpur Damansara is part of an 8.5-acre integrated development by GuocoLand, comprising two luxury condominium blocks, two corporate office towers, the hotel and Damansara City Mall (DC Mall).

Designed by Wilson Associates, the hotel’s interior blends the local heritage with a sophisticated feature wall depicting the country’s Wau Bulan, otherwise known as the moon kite with French art vivre through an Eiffel Tower sculpture. Custom-made Malaysian and French-inspired art-pieces and sculptures adorn the hotel, lending a rich, artistic vibe to its opulent interiors.

The guestrooms, which range from 43 to 105 square metres, feature the signature bedding concept by MyBed™, wifi and a selection of premium in-room amenities by Lanvin and Hermès. Guests staying in suites will have access to the Club Millésime executive lounge which offers spectacular views of the city’s skyline and provides exclusive services including complimentary breakfast, all-day refreshments, evening cocktails and more.

Sofitel Kuala Lumpur Damansara houses five restaurants and bars. The signature all-day dining restaurant Kwee Zeen serves Pan-Asian cuisine while the Chinese restaurant Wan Chun Ting, which translates as Ten Thousand Springs Pavilion, offers authentic Cantonese and Imperial cuisine with intricate fabrics, fine embroidery and gold damask velvet. Boasting four private dining rooms with plush furnishings, the restaurant features a sophisticated blend of east meets west décor with elements of Chinese-inspired silhouettes and traditional art pieces. Guests can enjoy a selection of French wines and afternoon tea at Le Bar or relish authentic French cuisine at the casual French Riviera-inspired restaurant, Nizza. The hotel also offers a Nespresso lounge and TWG fine teas.

For conventions, weddings, and corporate events, Sofitel Kuala Lumpur Damansara offers six meeting rooms including a pillar-less 1,100 square metre ‘Wau Bulan’ Ballroom that can accommodate up to 800 guests.

Wellness and leisure facilities include an outdoor pool, SO SPA and SO FIT. Featuring five treatment rooms, sauna and steams, guests can luxuriate in signature SO SPA facial and massage treatments. The spa is also the country’s first to offer a Moroccan Hammam bath treatment.

Strategically located midway between Kuala Lumpur and Petaling Jaya within close proximity to Kuala Lumpur Sentral, Sofitel Kuala Lumpur Damansara is within walking distance to the Pusat Bandar Damansara MRT station and 55 minutes to Kuala Lumpur International Airport.
