Right next to TRX, Lloyd’s Inn Kuala Lumpur brings nature indoors while catering to the needs of diverse guests

A new addition to the urban skyline, Lloyd’s Inn Kuala Lumpur translates the intimate ambience of Lloyd’s Inn Singapore, nestled within lush greenery, into a soaring structure near Bukit Bintang. This super-sized iteration of the beloved hospitality brand which also has an outpost in Bali, has 15 stories and 110 meticulously crafted rooms.

Designed by Farm Architecture, the architects calibrated every design aspect to the individual guest, ensuring a personalised experience without sacrificing the narrative of nature-inspired hospitality.

From the first impression, the hotel’s verdant façade offers a refreshing contrast against Kuala Lumpur’s urban backdrop and with the recently opened TRX on its doorstep. But the true marvel lies within.

Each room, whether a loft, suite, or standard accommodation, is adorned with greenery through planter boxes, private terraces, or cosy balconies.

These natural elements not only provide a sense of tranquillity but also serve to delineate spaces and offer privacy, even on the uppermost floors.

Lloyd’s Inn KL also retains the signature outdoor showers and bathtubs similar to a Bali experience and introduces new ones like retro swings in the sky.

Lloyd’s KL’s architectural philosophy champions a bottom-up approach, where the guest room takes precedence in shaping the overall experience.

Corridors, naturally ventilated and adorned with sun-shading fins, seamlessly integrate with the lush surroundings, fostering a sense of rawness and light throughout the premises.
