A Perfect Getaway in-Style right in the heart of the city and a European BBQ Buffet!

Staying at the very best sums up the opulence of a luxurious Penthouse suite with a spectacular view! Recently, I had the honors of peaking into the newly furbished The Suite at Swiss-Garden Residences Kuala Lumpur during the Bloggers’ Night event and what a sight it was… J

The Suite is perhaps the most iconic of all living spaces. The word implies sheer elegance, with an emphasis on space, views, and an enviable urban lifestyle. Swiss-Garden Hotel & Residences presents 2 majestic suites on the 33^rd floor of the Swiss-Garden Residences, named the Bukit Bintang Suite – 5 bedrooms with a private balcony & the Kuala Lumpur Suite- 4 bedrooms with a walk-in wardrobe.

Designed with the finesse of contemporary interiors and spanning over 2300 sqft, both suites boast in stunning panoramic views of the bustling KL city. The 4 bedroom suites comes with spacious living room, 42’ TV with 16 channels including satellite & local channels, cosy dining area, AV room, a study area, fully equipped kitchen with contemporary design, bath tub & rain shower as well as complimentary full minibar & Wi-Fi.

A fully equipped kitchen tickled my brain into immediate imagination of hosting a party here to impress!

Check out the contemporary and stylish lines of the lavish suites. Exclusively designed for comfort with a modern touch, the rooms were very spacious with minimal décor but extremely attractive to the eye!

As if the lavish suites are not enough, check out the gorgeous city view surrounding every angle of the windows and balcony! I took the pictures in the evening around 7.30pm and was already in awed at how mesmerizing the city is… J

The magnificent Twin Towers and the KL Tower was simply the center of attention while the whole city seems to reflect in a hue of pastel colors in the golden sunset sky!

The infinity pool is a must to enjoy the skyline at its best while health conscious guest can also enjoy a beautiful view when working out at the gym.

Enjoy the spacious & stylish comfort of these luxurious suites which comes replete with business and leisure needs. The perfect option for a perfect getaway-in style! Published rates for both suites are RM 8000++. Please call 03-2141 3333 for reservation.

In addition to the tour of The Suites, I had the lovely chance of meeting some new bloggers that night while dining at the hotel’s urban chic Mediterranean restaurant, T@ste6! Read more about T@ste6 here, here and here… J

We sampled their current promotion European BBQ Buffet that night featuring a list of seafood BBQ specialties like Tiger Prawns, Grilled Squid, Fish Tikka, Pakistani Chicken from the live grill station coupled with an array of salad specialties like German Potato Salad, Couscous Salad, Salmon with Udon and more. The hot warmers also features Roasted rosemary potatoes, Buttered Mixed Vegetables, Herbed Rice Pilaf and Spaghetti Aglio Olio.

The dinner ended with an array of desserts in the form of Chocolate Brownies with Basil Cream, Mini Cheese Cake and Carrot Cake with Cream Cheese and some fruits. Coffee or tea is included in the buffet.
