A Preserved Art Deco Shell with a Contemporary Interior

From Lee Rubber headquarters to boutique hotel

The hotel occupies the former Lee Rubber Building, a four-storey structure completed in 1932 and formerly used as the Lee Rubber Company headquarters. Its redevelopment follows an adaptive-reuse approach, retaining the building’s original exterior character while introducing rooms, restaurants, wellness spaces, a rooftop pool and meeting facilities.

Booty Edwards & Partners’ Art Deco structure

The original architecture is identified as Art Deco and attributed to Booty Edwards & Partners. The building is recognised as a heritage structure within Kuala Lumpur’s secondary heritage zone, providing the historic framework for the hotel’s more intimate and contemporary interior programme.

Residential-style communal rooms

The public-space programme includes a drawing room, library and leisure or TV room, alongside a boardroom, gym and rooftop deck. These spaces give the compact property a communal, residential character rather than relying solely on conventional hotel circulation and facilities.

Balconies, Private Living Rooms and Skyline Retreats

A 49-key collection of named stays

Accommodation categories include Double Room, Urban Room, Suite, Mantra Room, Sanctuary, Sutera and Else Suite. The collection combines conventional room types with named higher-category suites and selected rooms that include balconies or terraces.

Upper-floor balconies and additional sitting space

The Urban Room is positioned on upper floors and includes a balcony, while the larger Mantra Room has an attached seating area. These layouts provide distinct outdoor access or additional separation within the room categories.

Sanctuary and Sutera suite identities

The 69-square-metre Sanctuary suite includes a private living area and is suited to extended-family use. Sutera is described as an expansive retreat with sweeping skyline views, giving the upper categories a stronger residential and city-facing character.

Raw Kitchen Hall, Yellow Fin Horse and Local Produce

Contemporary Asian all-day dining

Raw Kitchen Hall is the hotel’s all-day dining venue and is associated with contemporary Asian cooking. It extends the Raw Kitchen Bar concept from Singapore, using local produce and suppliers with an international perspective.

A Malaysian-led kitchen

Raw Kitchen Hall is helmed by Malaysian chefs Leong Chee Mun and Wah Yin Xing. Both chefs have worked at Spago and Burnt Ends in Singapore, bringing those documented professional backgrounds to the hotel’s contemporary Asian restaurant.

Seafood with a city setting

Yellow Fin Horse is the property’s seafood-oriented restaurant. Like Raw Kitchen Hall, it is associated with local produce and suppliers interpreted through an international perspective. A poolside snack bar is also referenced within the hotel’s dining programme.

A Rooftop Pool Above Kuala Lumpur’s Layered Cityscape

Panoramic rooftop infinity swimming

The outdoor rooftop infinity pool is positioned on a deck with panoramic city views. It is also described as a 25-metre plunge pool, placing swimming and skyline outlooks together above the historic city-centre setting.

A deck connected to the skyline

The rooftop pool deck visually connects the hotel to Kuala Lumpur’s layered urban context, creating an elevated outdoor setting rather than a ground-level garden or resort pool environment.

Float Therapy, Breathwork and Movement Studios

A contemplative alternative to a treatment-room spa

The wellness offer centres on movement, breathwork, flotation and contemplation. Verified facilities and sessions include float therapy or deprivation tanks, floating meditation pods, yoga, breathwork, a gym and a dedicated workout studio.

Boardroom and business centre

Business facilities include a dedicated boardroom and business centre, with meeting space integrated into the hotel’s compact programme. These facilities support business use alongside the property’s dining, communal and wellness spaces.

Between Chinatown Heritage and Kuala Lumpur’s Historic Core

Central Market within a six-minute walk

The hotel is approximately six minutes on foot from Central Market, placing it close to one of Kuala Lumpur’s established heritage and market districts.

Shophouses, temples and street-food lanes

The surrounding Chinatown and City Centre edge is characterised by traditional shophouses, temple culture, street food, retail lanes and dense urban activity. Older commerce sits alongside newer hospitality development in the historic core.

A heritage-led urban base

The location combines access to Kuala Lumpur’s historic districts with proximity to the commercial centre, giving the hotel a city-centre setting shaped by heritage architecture, markets and contemporary urban hospitality.
