Else Kuala Lumpur
Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia · Else · Core Luxury
Else occupies the conserved Lee Rubber Building in downtown Kuala Lumpur, turning a familiar Chinatown landmark into a contemporary base for the city's creative scene. Natural textures and muted rooms provide contrast to the busy streets outside, while Yellow Fin Horse and Raw give food and drink a central role. Floatation treatments, gathering spaces and locally rooted programming make the hotel feel more like an urban retreat than a standard business address.
