A Revitalizing Stay @ THE WESTIN KUALA LUMPUR
Taking advantage of a long weekend recently, we had an opportunity to enjoy a staycation at The Westin Kuala Lumpur.

Located along the pulsating Jalan Bukit Bintang, The Westin Kuala Lumpur stands proudly right in the middle of Kuala Lumpur’s busiest street. But the moment we stepped into its elegant cool interior, we’re transported to … [Read more...]

The Westin Langkawi Resort & Spa – The Heavenly Spa & Spa by Night

The Westin Langkawi Resort & Spa – Breeze
We shall always remember the Breeze Lounge for 2 things: the stunning view from its al fresco terrace and the awesome steaks! Aptly named… indeed you will feel the gentle sea breeze caressing your skin when you seat yourself in the bright airy lounge and dining area beyond. It spots a modern contemporary casual atmosphere with plush comfy fabric couches where you can just sink in and chill-out with a glass of their signature martinis or just that wonderfully refreshing Apple Cinnamon … [Read more...]

Seasonal Tastes is the all-day dining restaurant in The Westin Langkawi Resort & Spa, located one floor below the Main Lobby. Furnished in a contemporary modern style, the restaurant is spacious and casually chic with lots of natural light streaming in through the glass walls.

The restaurant has a seating capacity … [Read more...]
