When it’s time to take it down a notch and seek refuge from the city, retreat to RuMa’s sleek, distinctly Malaysian contemporary interiors; so elegant in their simplicity and design that you can’t help but leave your cares behind. Opening late 2018 in the heart of the KLCC, the Pavillion and the Suria KLCC are both a mere ten-minute stroll away.

RuMa reflects a colonial feel with a twist offering bedrooms that open into the bathrooms, flooding spaces with natural light while creating spacious, intimate environments. Hand-picked one-of-a-kind design elements add to the contemporary take on the culture of Malaysia. The forty-storey hotel will house 199 serviced residences and 253 hotel suites. ◼
