The 5 Elements Hotel

The location of the hotel is excellent. Just adjacent to Petaling street in Chinatown. This makes it very easy to move around and find food, shopping and sightseeing a short walk from the hotel. Anything more and just outside the hotel is a good pick-up point for a Grab and taxis are located just a bit further down the street. If you have the rooms at the top the views are excellent. The toilette was very clean and worked very nice with double sink and good water pressure. The beds were comfortable and there was enough storage in the room. The view was excellent from the balcony. Breakfast was good but more towards the Chinese side of things which suited us just fine but may be a limitation for others. Plenty of food options very close to the hotel so there is no need to fret.

The only concern here was that there was a fire hazard in the breakfast room and when this was pointed out to one of the staff it did not seem that the person actually thought it was serious. A burn mark had already formed on one of the blinders covering the window where the toaster for bread was located. The blinder hung directly above the toaster. This kind of laxity is not acceptable and we hope the hotel staff will promptly ensure that this is addressed.
