Kuala Lumpur & Langkawi

In Our Opinion

Location

The Majestic Kuala Lumpur is on Jalan Sultan Hishamuddin, opposite the old Moorish style railways station, just 50 minutes from Kuala Lumpur International Airport.  Merdeka Square is just an 11-minute walk away whilst Petaling Street is around 15-minutes by foot.

The St Regis Langkawi (shown on the map) is on the southern tip of Langkawi with panoramic views of the Straits of Malacca.  The town of Kuah is around 10 minutes away in a taxi and the airport is approximately 20 minutes by road.

Restaurants and Cafés

The Majestic Kuala Lumpur

The Majestic offers a taste of tradition in The Tea Lounge and Colonial Cafe whilst its central location lends itself very well to exploring the many dining venues of Kuala Lumpur.

St Regis Langkawi

Elegance and sophistication is the order of the day at the St Regis dining venues.  You must try Kayaputi, the distinctive over-water restaurant designed by renowned architect Bill Bensley.  Alternatively, the nearby marina and main town of Kuah are within easy reach for when you'd prefer to dine out.

Optional Experiences

Kuala Lumpur

Aquaria World & Petronas View
Are you ready to be immersed in the underwater world of the oceans? If you love fish and all things aquatic, start the day by heading to the Aquaria KLLC Park. Discover fish, sharks and giant turtles, and explore an exotic sea world in the Rocky Shore Touch Pool and walk through the 90-metre transparent underwater tunnel.
Afterwards, you'll head to the Petronas Twin Towers which soar to a height of 452 metres. More than a skyscraper, the Petronas towers are an iconic symbol of the country. Proceed up to the Twin Tower’s sky bridge via a fast lift and take in the view of Kuala Lumpur City Centre. Move to the observation deck on the 86th floor for a view of the whole city.

Batu Caves & Royal Selangor Pewter Tour
Exploring the outskirts of Kuala Lumpur city, visit the well-known Royal Selangor Pewter factory, the largest in the world. Take a brief tour around the factory, learn about its history and watch a demonstration of some of the many processes involved in creating a pewter product including casting, filling, polishing and hammering. Afterwards, enjoy a brief stop at the Batik Centre and discover how this popular Malaysian fabric is designed and printed. The last part of the tour to Batu Caves is the most exciting. This world-famous limestone outcrop houses a Hindu temple and is visited by thousands of pilgrims and tourists every year.

Langkawi

Langkawi Cable Car & Black Sand Beach
Langkawi Cable Car is located in the Oriental Village and the clear bubble-shaped cable car takes the 2.2km ride up the mountainside on a 42-degree incline. From the cable car, view the Seven Wells (Telaga Tujuh), waterfalls and the dense tropical forest, part of a UNESCO World Heritage Geopark. Gunung Macincang at 708 metres offers a spectacular viewpoint. A hike from Station One, uphill to Station Two has been carved through the vegetation to create a walk through the forest. After the mountain visit, pass by Black Sand Beach and discover this unusual beach with black sand and finish with a visit to the Handicraft Centre of Langkawi.

Eagle Watching and Mangrove Tour
Take a cruise by speedboat along mangrove swamp on this half-day tour. Watch Brahminy Kite Eagles and White Belly Sea Eagles in action trying to outwit each other during the 'Eagle Feeding'. Virgin mangrove jungle inhabits the water's edge, and crabs, mudskippers and abundant birdlife thrive in this relatively uninhabited environment.

Sunset Cocktail Cruise On A Yacht
Admire the sunset while enjoying cocktails and a barbecue dinner, a perfect way to finish the day and to start the evening. Sail on a shared yacht with a few friends or fellow passengers and discover the beauty of the 99 islands of Langkawi at sunset.
