10/10 Excellent
"Prime location for views of the Petronas Towers!! We didn’t want to leave our room!! Room was generous with a king bed, lounge, desk, bar fridge, coffee making facilities, complimentary water & a super generous bathroom with bath, shower & alabaster sink!! Buffet breakfast was vast, all day dining restaurant was great with a good variety. Sky at & pool had more stunning views of the towers. I highly recommend Traders & will definitely stay again! "
