I had a very decent stay this round. Room was still clean and this time we did not have to wait for long at the hotel lobby (also we checked in fairly late at night this time). We love that this room came with a proper vanity/work desk that hub could still work during our staycation. The toilet was also clean and spacious.
The pool was quite empty, thus it was really nice to swim in during the morning Unfortunately, the treadmills at the gym were pretty rundown.
Buffet breakfast was relatively quiet compared to our last staycation here because it was puasa month. I am really surprised that there were plenty of choices still and the staffs also top up when certain food ran out.
The location was perfect if your hangout places are in Pj. It’s close to almost everywhere — KD, Ara Damansara, One U etc. Definitely a hotel to come back again ❤️

Traveling to Malaysia or having an overnight layover? Ditch those hard airport benches! Let me share my experience at Sama-Sama Hotel, the only 5-star airport hotel at KLIA T1.
✈️ If you're arriving on an international flight (at KLIA Terminal 1), whether you need a good rest after a long journey or have an early flight the next day, this hotel is definitely your top choice.
🚗 How to get from Arrivals to the Hotel?
(Includes shuttle service guide)
Please do not attempt to walk with heavy luggage; it's quite a distance (approx. 500 meters).
🛬 Arrive at Level 2: After clearing immigration and collecting your baggage, take the elevator to Level 2.
📍 Find the Buggy Station: Look for signs pointing to 'Sama-Sama Hotel.' The shuttle station is directly opposite the Food Garden.
🚗 Call a Shuttle: There's a dedicated 24-hour free buggy service. Just wait a moment (or press the call button), and a uniformed staff member will drive you and your luggage via an indoor skybridge directly to the hotel lobby in just 3 minutes.
🍳 A 'Food City' Level Breakfast that Amazes the Taste Buds
The hotel's Continents restaurant offers 24-hour service, and its breakfast is renowned.
🥘 A Fusion of Global Flavors: Malaysian dishes (the Nasi Lemak is a must-try!), Chinese dim sum and hot congee, authentic Indian curry with Roti Canai, Thai Tom Yum, and a full Western breakfast spread.
🍰 Dessert Paradise: A wide variety of Western cakes, freshly baked bread, and colorful Nyonya pastries, all visually stunning.
🏨 Hotel Facilities and History
Although the hotel opened in 1998 (formerly Pan Pacific), it underwent extensive renovations when it rebranded as Sama-Sama in 2013. It's incredibly well-maintained and exudes a 5-star quality.
✨ Room Types: Offers 442 rooms, including Deluxe, Premier, and more luxurious Suites. The rooms feature double-glazed windows for excellent soundproofing, and some even offer views of the tarmac.
🏊♀️ Swimming Pool and Gym: The outdoor tropical garden pool on the 1st floor has a fantastic ambiance, and the 24-hour gym is fully equipped.
💆 Sari Kayangan Spa: Provides professional Malay massage services, perfect for relieving flight fatigue.
🍸 Traveller’s Bar & Grill: Features live band performances in the evening, offering steaks and various cocktails in a wonderful atmosphere.
✨ As a national airport hotel, it frequently hosts dignitaries, sports stars (like F1 drivers), and VVIPs attending international conferences.
💡 How to choose a transit hotel❓
✅ Sama-Sama has two properties at KLIA T1; choose based on your needs:
1️⃣ Sama-Sama Express (airside/near Gate C5): No immigration required, suitable for short transits of up to 6 hours, charged hourly, and more affordable.
2️⃣ Sama-Sama Hotel (landside/this review's focus): Requires immigration clearance into Malaysia. Highly recommended for stays longer than 6 hours! Offers larger spaces, more comfortable bedding, and a full range of facilities.👍
The room was clean but due to crowds, people need to queue for turn. The location is quite far from attractions or city centre but there is a mall with few shops including some fast food restaurants and 7e below.
Breakfast was good with limited choices. Decent and staff very attentive.
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The room was very spacious, clean, and extremely comfortable, making it perfect for a relaxing stay.
Parking was very convenient and easily accessible for customers, which is a big plus. The receptionist was exceptionally helpful, friendly, and professional, always ready to assist with any questions or requests.
Really enjoyed our stay! Friendly staff, lovely room decoration, cake, and biscuits. Special thanks to Arifah and the gentleman who assisted us upon arrival. The kids’ corner was amazing. our daughter had so much fun playing with the balls that she didn’t want to come out. Spacious room with a great golf course view.
The Sunway Resort Hotel in Kuala Lumpur was an amazing experience, highly recommended! The hotel's location is excellent, with direct access to Sunway Pyramid Mall and the water park. You can find everything you need for dining, entertainment, and shopping all in one place, making getting around super convenient. The lobby is grand and elegant, and the rooms are spacious and clean with comfortable bedding. The facilities are well-maintained, and the overall environment is very relaxing.
The service was warm and attentive; the staff were friendly, and check-in was efficient and smooth. Any requests were handled promptly. The dining options were extensive, with a wide variety of delicious breakfast choices. The pool was clean and comfortable, perfect for relaxation.
It's suitable for both family vacations and trips with friends, offering great value for money. It was a comfortable and hassle-free stay. I'll definitely choose this hotel again next time I'm in Kuala Lumpur. I genuinely recommend it to everyone!
Good place for family with small kids to have gathering here. The playground, waterpark and gokart are indoor, more comfort for the kid to play. There is plenty of restaurant and bistro in the resort. Highly recommended.
We stay here everytime we’re in KL. The room is big and comfortable. The breakfast is a must cos there’s so much variety. The humongous shopping mall just below the hotel is the best part! Shop till you drop and just go up to your room and rest! And if you’re hungry, just call for room-service. The food is great! The lobby lounge is also a great place to relax over a cocktail and listen to the wonderful live singing!
I experienced several issues that were disappointing and did not meet basic hotel standards:
No toiletries were provided, including essential items such as a toothbrush. Additionally, a disposable laundry bag was also not provided.
A dirty towel was left behind the door, which appeared to be from a previous guest. This raises concerns about the thoroughness of the housekeeping service.
The pillow in the room had an unpleasant smell, similar to stale saliva or old drool, making it uncomfortable and unhygienic to use.
As a guest, I expect a clean room and basic amenities to be properly prepared before check-in. Unfortunately, this experience fell below expectations.
I hope management will take this feedback seriously and improve housekeeping and room inspection procedures
Overall stay is satisfactory and convenient. Amenities provided are sufficient. Self check in & check out. Would recommend for a short stay here.

The room is spacious and worth your money.Very good service, friendly staff made me and my family love staying here. Thank you all.
Beautiful and good environment, suitable for family and any company events. Travel by own transportation are more convenient. Buffet breakfast are so delicious 😋
Hotels look new, the room is very comfortable. There is a shopping mall adjacent to the hotel but there is nothing much to shop there, mostly an empty mall. Opposite the waterway, there are many eateries like Pizza Hut, Ayam Penyet, McD, Domino Pizza. The Onsen is chargeable even for hotel guests. Onsen is pretty small and nothing much facilities there.
This is my first time staying at the One World Hotel, which is recommended by my friend. It’s a very grand and clean 5-Stars hotel, which is located away from the usual busy Bukit Bintang. The hotel is directly link to the 1-Utama shopping mall, which is very convenient if you need to buy or eat anything. Upon arrival, there is bellboy helped to load the luggage and placed aside till check-in. The service is fast and efficient. The check-in is hassle free. However, it is not for the check-out, as you need to join together in the same queue as those who check-in. There is no quick and fast self check-out. The room comes with two Queen beds, which is good and ideal for a family stay. It is clean and tidy. It also comes with some complimentary drinks, snacks and also bathtub which my kids love to bath in. For the breakfast, it is just located directly near the lift at a lower floor after the lobby. The spread is amazing, the quality of the food is great and it tastes really nice and delicious. One of the highlight is the prata, which is freshly made on the spot and it is crispy and tasty. Next is the pastry, especially the Pain au chocolat, the chocolate is so rich and creamy. Likewise for the buttery croissant. They do sell them in their bakery too. It is definitely a breakfast not to be missed! They have amazing swimming pools which has the normal usual one and another is for the kids to play in. The overall experience is great and we have a wonderful time staying in One World Hotel. We will definitely come back again next time. Thank you One World!
🌟 A Relaxing Escape with Top-Notch Hospitality I recently stayed at this wonderful hotel and had an exceptional experience from start to finish. The hospitality stood out immediately—every staff member I met was warm, attentive, and genuinely welcoming, which made the entire stay feel effortless and enjoyable. One of the biggest highlights was the beautiful view. Whether during sunrise or sunset, the scenery from the hotel was simply breathtaking. Overlooking lush greenery, a spacious pool area, and the city skyline in the distance, it offered a calming atmosphere perfect for unwinding. The facilities were another strong point. The swimming pool was stunning—surrounded by tall trees and comfortable seating, it felt like a peaceful retreat both in the day and at dusk. The gym was well-equipped and clean, making workouts convenient during the stay. I also appreciated having access to the sauna, which was a great way to relax after exploring the city. Dining by the pool was such a treat too. Enjoying a delicious burger under the warm sun with the pool just steps away made for a perfect afternoon. Overall, this hotel provided a delightful blend of comfort, excellent service, and great amenities. I left feeling refreshed and satisfied, and I would gladly return for another stay. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a relaxing getaway with great hospitality and facilities.
The hotel is quite near to KLIA airport. It took about 20-25 mins to reach using Grab car. The hotel is big & nice with wide lobby. The room is also clean, comfortable and with all the amenities. We stayed there for 1 night only since our flight is the next day. The breakfast spread is quite good too with varieties of food, local and western. There is also a free shuttle service to the airport at no cost. Overall, it was a good and nice hotel to stay!
Fast and smooth check-in. No deposit. Our room is facing the Taman Subang Ria Lake and KL city. Nice view day and night. The room is big with a work desk and a sofa. Free mini-bar consumption. Overall, it is good.
