If you work in Bangsar or have commuted around the area, then you may have seen the tall, black building that’s located along Jalan Ang Seng (opposite of Bank Rakyat) which has “Est” and “Alila” written on its lower structure. Well, that building is called Alila Bangsar, a modern urban retreat and residential space that fuses a haven of relaxation with a lively city vibe.
To stay at the resort hotel is to embark on a destination experience. Be it in recreating the flavours of the local cuisine, enhancing well-being through ancient healing arts or the thrill of adventure sports, guests will get to re-discover the meaning of luxury at Alila.
1. Location, location, location!
Alila is nestled right in the heart of Bangsar, conveniently linked to the Bangsar LRT station and walking distance from Kuala Lumpur Sentral, the city’s main railway hub. The area is home to a bustling shopping, dining, entertainment and nightlife scene, close to Brickfields, Kuala Lumpur’s Little India, Bangsar Village, and Mid Valley Megamall, the ultimate destination for retail therapy and entertainment.
2. The Alila Experience
A variety of indoor and outdoor venues provide ideal settings for any occasion, from business meetings to weddings and private events, while a dedicated butler station on every guest room floor ensures a high level of personalised guest service. Here is where comfort and personalised service meet contemporary style and a variety of dining and lifestyle facilities, ideal for young urbanites, leisure travellers and sophisticated executives. It is a place to feel at home, and in the heart of it all.
3. They love nature
Dubbed as surprisingly different, the hallmark of Alila is the combination of innovative design and luxury, set apart by an unprecedented level of private space, crafted artisanship and bespoke journeys. Boasting 143 guest rooms which offer uninterrupted views of the Kuala Lumpur skyline, the hotel was designed according to EarthCheck operating standards, integrating the natural, physical and cultural elements of their environments in support of sustainable tourism.
4. Enchanting Sky Lobby & Pool Area
Alila’s sky-level lobby is ideally located on the 41st floor to ensure a relaxing stay in the city, featuring a stunning three-storey atrium overlooking a pool on Level 40, where tropical-style landscaping, luxurious loungers, and infusions of natural light and views create a resort-like oasis for relaxation. Don’t worry, the service apartment residents have their own private pool so hotel guests can chill in peace.
Those who feel like partying can head over to the Pool Bar, a sanctuary for guests to enjoy retro favourites and local tropical flavours using ingredients that have been conceptualised by Proof & Company.

Check out the rooftop bars located on levels 42, 43 and roof, to bask in the panoramic backdrop of the city skyline and enjoy the spectacular views of Kuala Lumpur, whilst enjoying a delicious selection of food and beverage offerings at Alila’s excellent restaurants including Botanica + Co (Ground), a place that serves delightful wholesome Asian fusion dishes, and Entier (Level 41), a semi-fine dining French restaurant which blends with Japanese finesse.
For those who are interested, Alila Bangsar‘s hotel division is expected to open its doors sometime in June 2018. In the meantime, those who aren’t willing to wait can check out Alila’s equally enchanting service apartment called The Establishment.
