Impiana Hotel Kuala Lumpur launches their newly revamped suites of their Superior Plus and Deluxe Plus room that has been refurbished to stay up-to-date with today's trending interiors and design. Bringing comfort and style when you check-in.

During my visit there, I was really amazed by the new rooms where I got a chance to visit and find out what were the difference from before.

At the Main Tower with the Superior, Deluxe and Executive rooms are housed at; We visited the new Superior Plus room.

What changed was the bedding that is a Twin Bed, TV cabinet, the TV itself, the flooring, the wall decor and the bath. Previously it was a bathtub but they have since changed all to standing shower.

As for the Deluxe Plus room, the same refurbished has been done, with the addition of a working desk and the bed being a Super King Bed. With the space in the room, there is an option to also add an additional bed in the room as well.

I love how warm and cosy the interiors has been revamped into. The wall decor representing Malaysia at its best with our very our KLCC Twin Towers and in some rooms the National flower, Hibiscus.

Bathtubs are still available for sure, but it will be for the Club Deluxe rooms onwards. I also had the chance to visit the Spa and Infinity Swimming pool too!

And if you are planning a relaxing getaway from the bustling city or from work. Impiana also has great dining and view up on Cedar on 15 at the top of the hotel where you will be able to enjoy their Weekend BBQ Buffet overlooking the beautiful city of Kuala Lumpur and especially the Petronas KLCC Twin Towers.
