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.

The shop is easy to find. The staff and instructor were very friendly and helpful. This was my first time learning pottery, and the process was so much fun. Especially that moment when you see the shape of your bowl or cup forming - it feels like watching your newborn baby take shape. LOL. I’ll definitely come back again. The only thing is the class cost is a bit on the high side 😂

80x80 took me 9 hours to complete over 3 days… I’m not sure if that’s normal but I don’t think I was particularly slow🤣 for my first time tufting I think I should have been less ambitious by doing a smaller piece. either ways, this was a great experience!

What to know before visiting Petaling Jaya

Quick snapshot of Petaling Jaya and what to expect

Petaling Jaya is busy with family-friendly attractions and outdoor activities, led by theme parks, zoos & aquariums, and playgrounds. Klook booking patterns show a clear yearly rhythm: activity demand builds through spring and peaks in July, then falls to a low in November.

Best times to visit for price and crowds

Demand peaks in July while the quietest booking month is November, according to Klook data. Prices, however, peak in September and are typically lowest around June, so crowd levels and prices don't line up exactly — September can be relatively pricey even if it's not the absolute busiest month. If you want lower prices and smaller crowds, consider visiting in June or November; for full peak-season atmosphere, aim for July.

Tips for travellers from the Philippines

Most visitors tend to book quite close to arrival: typical lead time on Klook is about a day, with many bookings made just a day or two before. That makes Petaling Jaya a good option for flexible, short-notice trips from the Philippines — but if you plan to travel in July or September, consider securing key experiences earlier. Use Klook to lock in tickets and family-friendly activities quickly and conveniently.
