Rooms are not clean, floors are sticky, tables had food sauce left over tv remote was oily. Towels was dirty. Hotel is tucked in a corner in the Citi, still very much walkable. Rates for the rooms was really affordable just the rooms was really gross. The sheets don’t event smell good.

There were cigarette smell coming from the aircon for a few nights. Almost became a smoked salmon one night and requested to change to another room. Staff very kindly helped to change me to another room on a higher floor.

The room was of a average size with a small bathroom and toilet but had coffee and tea making in room. Hair dryer, and tap to fill up your cup to maintain hydration. Air conditioning was too cold for me so they supplied me with an extra blanket. The breakfast was on the 1st floor and offered a varied menu. The one thing missing was a hand towel. The laundry service was good.

For the price we are comfortable and see value. The service was good. Only gripe it maybe the pillows have a smell although the pillow case was clean. Walls are super thin so we can hear if we have a noisy neighbour or people shouting downstairs - best to bring earplugs.

Pros: Easy check-in and check-out. Great location for the price if you want to be close to Bukit Bintang, but not on the main strip. Loved the eco-friendly built-in drinking water system.
Cons: Room was a bit small, but if you're not going to be in your hotel much, it's fine. The shower handle looked like it had seen better days. The window shade in the shower had mold growing on it. No hand soap for the sink, and no one was available to talk to at the front after midnight when I got back.
Overall: Good place if you just need a place to stay near the hub of everything.

They had a large group the same week so the floors were not shockingly not as cleaned coming out of the elevators. Then some rooms were rushed. However, the personnel acknowledged & they were very responsive & helpful. I would visit again.

Had booked this hotel for an overnight stay in KL.
So there are 2 Dorsett hotels across from each other - This one is the economical one.
Would recommend only for a very short trip.
The breakfast option is there but it has very limited options.

Please AVOID this hotel if possible

The soundproof is extreme terrible. You can hear the guest next to your room wash hands, flush, showing, evening talking. The room is not very clean. The guest before me had used the cup to brush the teeth and they dont clean it and they just put the cup back to next guest. Also, i found a clipped nail on the floor.
Please AVOID this hotel if possible.

I stayed at this property for 4 nights with my partner on arrival to KL. There were limited photos on Google and Expedia but we took a chance. The hotel is more of a budget hotel for the area. In terms of location, we loved it. It’s very walkable to Bukit Bintang and The Exchange TRX. It’s in an area with a bunch of other hotels and nice restaurants and malls. The room was tiny and wasn’t in the best condition. There were scuffs on the walls and caulking was falling off. It was annoying that there was only one universal outlet in the room while the 3 others were not. They could do with some renovations. I don’t think I’d stay here again but if you’re on a budget it’s a good option for the location.

The hotel is in a central location although there are limited facilities in the immediate area.

The car park uses lifts for the cars, which are quite difficult to get in an out of the car.

The bathroom in the room is very small, with the door opening inwards rather than sliding. This means you have to move yourself awkwardly around the toilet to close the door

Nothing to complain. It’s better than a certain 4-star hotel I stayed in Melaka. It would have been perfect if they can get rid of the narrow sloping car parking rack which serves no purpose. Service is excellent. Place is clean. Walking distance to Pavilion & Bukit Bintang.

Even though it takes only 5 minutes to the main street, the pavement of the side street is uneven. Cars do not stop for pedestrians. The staff at the hotel are very polite, friendly and helpful. We are on the 9 floor, the room is spacious and bright.

I really like the property and how compact the room is because I like small, but compact room. The location is in the middle of attractions like Pavilion, KLCC Suria mall, Twin Towers and new mall called TRX. It's the nicest budget hotel I have ever stayed in Malaysia.

We recently had the opportunity to stay at J-Hotel by Dorsett, and it offered a convenient location just a 10-minute walk from Pavilion. However, we would recommend taking a Grab ride as the alley leading to the hotel can be dimly lit and give an unsafe impression. This short ride typically costs around RM5-10.

One notable aspect of our stay was the sound insulation, which left something to be desired. We could easily hear our neighbors laughing and the sound of doors opening and closing. This did affect the overall tranquility of the room.

The room itself, while compact, was well-equipped with essential amenities. It included a table, a safe box, and provided toiletries, including a toothbrush. While it may not be spacious, it was functional and suited our needs during the stay.

In conclusion, J-Hotel by Dorsett offers a pleasant stay, especially considering its price point. Its prime location and essential amenities make it a practical choice for those who need a convenient base for exploring the area. However, potential guests should be aware of the sound insulation issues and consider alternative transport options to ensure a comfortable and safe arrival.

A nice new hotel. The staff were friendly and helpful. It's located close to transport, shopping and entertainment. There is some construction going on around it so the street is a bit of a mess but the hotel is fine. Only issue i had was with the very small fridge, other then that it's a terrific hotel.

Wouldn't stay here again

Bit of an odd place in an odd location. The road leading to it is awful with abandoned cars and potholes. It's also pretty dark.
Had a huge pillar in the middle of my room which was quite inconvenient. Only 1 chair to sit on and a tiny, pretty ineffective fridge with no freezer compartment which I hate. Requested a high floor which I didn't get. Sealed windows which I find quite claustrophobic.
