I'm a dork. I love skyscrapers. I love luxury hotels. If you were designing a hotel just for me, you'd put it on the top floors of one of the world's tallest buildings. Preferably in an underrated destination.
That's why the Park Hyatt Kuala Lumpur seemed tailor-made for me. The hotel occupies the highest levels of the world's current second-tallest building, Merdeka 118.
With those attractions in mind, I finally found time to visit the Park Hyatt Kuala Lumpur, which opened in August 2025, and it did not disappoint. Here's what staying at one of the world's highest hotels is like and why you might want to redeem some of your Hyatt points there if you get the chance.
A great solo travel tip spotted this week on The Points Guy Articles.
