The experience was seamless from start to finish, from booking via Klook to the massage at Thai Odyssey , Pearl Point. Everything felt smooth and well-managed, with no friction. Booking through Klook was especially convenient, it was quick, straightforward, and hassle-free. 🫶🏻

initially when booking, I did not know I had to request for a joint room, so if you book a couples massage don't assume it's going to be in the same room.. the reception was very accommodating and gave us a nice couple room for our massage. massage wise is good, the welcome drink and post massage drink is good! the price onsite was rm270.. so there was really no klook discount.. infact I paid more with my klook 😢

Good location, within walking distance to One Utama Shopping Centre. Rooms are clean & aircon works well. My only complaint is breakfast not good enough, not much selection & quality really not good enough. Persoanlly, I think can skip breakfast & go shopping mall to eat instead.

Stayed for just 1 night. Overall clean and comfortable. Pleasant staff and environment. Did not use the facilities or eat there so can't comment. Only comment would be the quality of the towels, they were thin and rough. Could also provide a hand towel for convenience.

The hotel serves breakfast every morning from 7:00 AM to 10:00 AM. From the hotel, there is a bus that you can ride to the train station. From the train station, you will be able to get to different places, like the Central Station, which is the main station.
The room is a bit small but enough for one or two people, and it's an okay experience overall.

Quick facts about Petaling Jaya
General info
What to know before visiting Petaling Jaya
Discover Petaling Jaya’s top experiences and rhythm of the year
Petaling Jaya is a lively urban escape where theme parks, zoos & aquariums and family-friendly playgrounds dominate visitor bookings, with cultural experiences and outdoor activities also well represented. Demand peaks in July and falls to a low in November, so the city’s year is a clear high-season and low-season cycle.
Best months to visit based on crowds and prices
According to Klook booking data, July is the busiest month while November sees the lightest demand. Prices follow a similar pattern: July is typically the priciest month for activities, while January is usually the cheapest. If you want lower prices and smaller crowds, aim for January or other months outside July; if you’re after the peak-season atmosphere and the most activity options, July is the month to visit.
Tips for travellers from Australia
Most experiences in Petaling Jaya can be booked very close to travel—travellers typically book about a day or two in advance—so a flexible itinerary works well. During July, when demand and prices rise, plan and secure popular activities slightly earlier to avoid limited availability. Use Klook to browse options and lock in activities when you’re ready.
