HOTEL
We booked a double deluxe room at Hotel Imperial located in Bukit Bintang
.

Check-in at the hotel took less than 5 minutes, so we did not have any issues on checking-in. Just a reminder. They ask for a deposit. In our case, 100 MYR was asked from us (booked 2 rooms).

Lift was available for guests to use. We stayed on the third floor.
3rd floor hallway 


Double bed and single bed
toiletries: soap shower cap, conditioning shampoo
Not in picture: toilet tissue paper,  towels

The hotel stay was okay. The receptionists were able to answer queries. Housekeeping changed the towels and refilled the toiletries everyday.
