GranD hYatt Kuala lumPur Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia If the globetrotters among you have itchy feet on the run-up to Eid, why not grab your passport and make for Malaysia? Once there, there are few better places to check in to than the Grand Hyatt Kuala Lumpur. Opened in August 2012, it’s a show of modern glamour set smack bang in the city centre – which means you’ll be placed right in the thick of things. If you plan to sightsee during your stay, there’s plenty of reason to charge your camera: the iconic Petronas Twin
Towers, standout shopping at The Pavilion Shopping Centre and the Golden Triangle shopping and entertainment district are all within reach. And if city life sends your head in a spin, the groomed gardens of KLCC Park create an idyllic retreat – stop off for a picnic while you’re there. Back at the hotel you can gain further sanctuary from the busy streets (though each of the 370 rooms and 42 suites bestow fabulous city vistas thanks to floorto-ceiling windows), and no more so than in
the Essa Spa, where spa-junkies can trawl through an arm-length menu of signature treatments and traditional massages. Cuisine is something of a specialty here too, so leave the calorie counting for after Eid and tuck into anything from hearty steaks at signature restaurant THIRTY8 or wrap your lips around more authentic Malaysian bites at JP teres where local favourites are served hot from the grill, wok and hotplate. kualalumpur.grand.hyatt.com October 2012 Kanoo World Traveller 19
