Guest sentiment
A 312-room lifestyle hotel on Jalan Sultan Ismail with a rooftop infinity saltwater pool, between KLCC and Bukit Bintang.
Last updated August 8, 2026
Hyatt Centric City Centre Kuala Lumpur opened in December 2024 on Jalan Sultan Ismail, roughly midway between KLCC and Bukit Bintang. The 312-room lifestyle hotel draws praise for its modern, vibrant design and rooftop infinity saltwater pool, with guests calling it a compelling value option for Hyatt loyalists compared to the city's pricier luxury properties. It lacks the wellness facilities (spa, sauna) of Kuala Lumpur's higher-tier Hyatt hotels, but its central, walkable location and still-fresh feel as a newer property are the recurring draw.
