Hotels near KL Tower

KL Tower (Menara Kuala Lumpur) is a 421-metre telecommunications and observation tower built 1991-1996 - the 7th-tallest free-standing tower in the world. Located on top of Bukit Nanas (94 m), the effective top observation deck is at 421+94 = 515 metres above sea level, slightly higher than the Petronas Twin Towers observation deck. The Sky Deck is open-air; the Sky Box is a glass-floor extension hanging off the side.

Standard observation deck RM67; Sky Deck and Sky Box combo RM105. The revolving Atmosphere 360 restaurant at the 282-metre level (lunch buffet RM158, dinner RM228) gives a full panorama over a meal. The forested Bukit Nanas Recreational Park at the base is one of KL's oldest forest reserves with monkeys and a canopy walk. Free shuttle bus from the gate to the tower base. Open daily 09:00-22:00.

Pro Tip: The Sky Box (the glass cube hanging off the side) is the most-photographed Instagram spot in KL - book the 18:30 slot to get the city lighting up just as you stand on the glass floor. Mid-week visits avoid the longest weekend queues.
