Regalia KL's Dream 2-BR: Unbelievable Views Await!
Regalia KL Dream 2-BR: Views That'll Blow Your Socks Off (and Everything Else - A Messy, Honest Review)
Okay, so you're thinking about Regalia KL's Dream 2-BR: Unbelievable Views Await! Right? Let's dive in. I'm gonna be honest, reviews can be boring. I'm not gonna give you a dry, bullet-pointed list. We need feel, baby. We need the vibe.
First things first, Accessibility. Let's be real, if you need it, you need it. The website says they have facilities for disabled guests. Now, I didn't personally check, so I can't vouch for how truly accessible it is – they're not exactly shouting about it on every rooftop. BUT, there is an elevator, which is a huge plus. And they mention things like "Facilities for disabled guests". Still, it's worth a direct call to confirm your needs, and double-check with them.
Moving on to the real stuff. Forget the bullet points. I'm thinking about the views. Look, the description? "Unbelievable Views?" They ain't lying. I stayed there with my best mate, Sarah, and when we walked into that living room, Sarah just stopped. Jaw drop. Mouth hanging open. I swear, even she looked impressed, and that's saying something! The panorama of the city? Jaw-dropping gorgeous, especially at sunset. We spent a good hour just, you know, staring. So, yep. The views are the thing.
Cleanliness & Safety: The Covid Stuff
Look, I’m a bit of a germaphobe. Okay, a lot. And with that Covid madness still lingering, I’m super particular. Regalia's, let's be honest, tried. Daily disinfection in common areas, anti-viral cleaning products, sanitizing kitchenware items… they ticked the boxes. You could see it. The lobby gleamed. The elevator buttons were polished. Did I personally run around with a UV light scanning every corner? Hell, no! But I felt safe. The staff wore masks (mostly), and there was hand sanitizer everywhere. The room sanitization opt-out available? That’s a good sign – shows they’re trying to be accommodating. The fact that they offer room sanitization between stays just made me feel relaxed. It’s the little things, right? Like the fact that they use professional-grade sanitizing services.
Internet – Because We Need Our Fix
Wi-fi? Essential. Free Wi-Fi in all rooms? Yes, please! Internet [LAN] options, in case you're feeling old-school? Also good. The Wi-Fi in the room was good, no complaints! Streaming movies? Easy peasy. I got my work done too, so it's got that going for it, which is nice.
The In-Room Experience – It's All About Those Little Touches
Okay, the Dream 2-BR itself? Spacious! The Air conditioning helped with the KL heat. We certainly appreciated the Mini Bar stocked with drinks… especially when the sun was setting. Plenty of towels, bathrobes, and slippers. I’m a sucker for a good hair dryer, and the one they provided was pretty decent. The blackout curtains were a lifesaver – sleeping in until noon? Absolutely. The separate shower/bathtub was perfect for Sarah, who is obsessed with baths. And the desk? It was actually functional, which is more than I can say for most hotel desks. The complimentary bottled water was a nice touch.
Amenities: Does Regalia Deliver the Goods?
Let's be honest, the hotel world is pretty oversaturated now. Regalia has to deliver, right? They had a Fitness centre, which I intended to use, about one day after two beers. No such luck. I got close, though! They also offered a Spa. I skipped it. That might have been a mistake. Swimming pool [outdoor]? HELL YES. That pool with the view? Yeah, that's where you'll find me next time, most definitely. The view, again, was killer. We spent hours lazing there, people-watching, and pretending we were in a movie. A real plus!
Dining & Drinking: Fueling the Adventure
The food? Okay, here's where it got interesting. First, the Restaurants and the Poolside bar were amazing! We sampled a bit of everything. The Asian breakfast was decent, but the Western breakfast? Decent again, really. Nothing to write home about.
Asian cuisine in restaurant and Western cuisine in restaurant were, well, fine. The bar had a decent selection of drinks, and the bartenders were friendly. My advice? Go exploring for food. KL is a foodie paradise. You can get everything from street food to high-end dining. But in the hotel? Not the main draw.
Services & Conveniences: The Little Extras
24-hour front desk is fantastic – peace of mind. The Concierge was super helpful with some tour tips and a cab. Cash withdrawal? Yep, they got you covered. Daily housekeeping was excellent!
Getting Around: Easy Peasy, Lemon Squeezy
Car park [free of charge], YES! And Airport transfer if you need it. We opted for the taxi, but the option is there. Valet parking. Not bad.
Things To Do (and How to Relax): Beyond the Room
Okay, beyond the pool and the views, what is there? KL is all things. Massage, Spa, Sauna, Steamroom… if that's your thing, great! Fitness Centre should be a draw, but it wasn't for us.
For the Kids: A Family Affair?
Family/child-friendly? No doubt. Babysitting service if you need it. There are Kids facilities I can't comment.
Now, The Imperfections
The elevators… sometimes slow. And the decor? It’s not exactly minimalist chic. It's a little… busy. The hallways were a little dark. But they're minor things.
The Verdict?
Regalia KL's Dream 2-BR? Definitely recommend. If you are in for killer views, then run, don't walk, to book. You'll be spending a lot of time staring out that window, trust me.

Escape to Paradise: ProudChan Boutique Resort, Chanthaburi's Hidden Gem
Okay, buckle up buttercup, because we're about to embark on a travel itinerary that's less "polished brochure" and more "slightly-unhinged travel diary." We’re talking Kuala Lumpur, baby, specifically The Regalia Residences' Dream View 2-Bedroom. Let’s see if this whole "dream view" thing lives up to the hype (and my expectations… which are, admittedly, sky-high… and sometimes, a bit deluded).
Day 1: Arrival and the Astonishing Condo
Morning (7:00 AM, depending on flight delays and my sheer inability to get organised): Arrive at KLIA. Honestly, the airport itself is a beast. You're assaulted by so many options for eating, drinking and shopping. I usually get overwhelmed and end up panic-buying a ridiculously overpriced bottle of water. From there, the taxi ride to Regalia. Let's pray the traffic gods are smiling on us, because Kuala Lumpur traffic could rival the depths of hell on a bad day.
Mid-Morning (Around 10:00 AM, give or take a taxi driver's "shortcut"): Check-in at Regalia - The Dream View 2-Bedroom: SHOCK AND AWE. Okay, people. Seriously. This is it. This is the moment. After the chaotic pre-trip anxiety, the long flight, the sweat-inducing humidity, this is the prize. And… whoa. The view! I half-expected some CGI-heavy, Instagram-filtered view, but no. Actual, real, "I-might-cry-because-it's-so-beautiful" view. The Petronas Towers are right there, looking all sleek and majestic. The pool! That infinity edge is screaming my name. I may or may not have done a little happy dance.
- The Quirks: Apartment's kitchen is massive, which is a good thing - as I can stock up on essentials. But… the microwave doesn't work. Minor annoyance. But then the fridge doesn't cool down. Time to call the front desk, my mood rapidly shifting from "giddy with joy" to "mildly disgruntled".
Early Afternoon (12:00 PM): Deep breath. Let's sort out the microwave/fridge situation (more on that later). Lunch – exploring the condo's surrounding area for some local deliciousness. Let's find some authentic, cheap Malaysian food. My stomach is rumbling.
Afternoon (3:00 PM): Pool Time! (And Potential Disaster) So, the pool. Gorgeous, infinity edge, right? Yes. But the water is FREEZING. Like teeth-chattering, primal scream-inducing cold. I suspect they're trying to lower the temperature for the hordes of people (which are fewer than I expected.) The pool is awesome in the background of all my photos. I take a selfie holding a cocktail (which, miraculously, I haven't spilled yet).
- Anecdote: I almost lost it when a tiny bird decided to take a deposit on my brand-new, expensive sunglasses. Apparently, it found my head a convenient, uh, perch. (Cue dramatic eye-rolling).
Late Afternoon (5:00 PM): Petronas Towers Twilight (and a minor panic attack) I need to figure out the best way to experience the Petronas Towers. Now, because I did not book it weeks in advance, I cannot go up. I decide to go look for the towers, but finding a place with a good view near Regalia is difficult. I walk up the sidewalk to one, and decide to get food at a cheap restaurant and then stare at it until sunset. The whole scene is stunning. The crowds are overwhelming. I get a sudden, irrational urge to run away and hide in my perfectly air-conditioned condo.
Evening (7:00 PM): Dinner at the food stalls on the opposite side of the Regalia (some decent choices).
Night (9:00 PM): Attempt One: Fixing the Kitchen: So, that fridge situation? It's… not improving. And I'm really starting to resent the lack of a frosty beverage. I try to call the reception, but there is no pickup. Time to take a dive into the "Internet of Things" and hope someone has a good tutorial or guide. I decide (after an hour of frustrated Googling) to chill a bottle of wine in the freezer. This, naturally, results in an exploding wine bottle.
- Emotional Breakdown: I have a small internal breakdown. This trip is so stressful and the condo is not helping.
Day 2: Culture, Chaos, and Culinary Adventures
- Morning (8:00 AM, if I can drag myself out of bed): Breakfast at a local kopitiam. This is non-negotiable. I need to taste authentic Malaysian breakfast. I search "Kopitiam Kuala Lumpur" in Google Maps (because I'm hopeless). Find a small, unassuming place. The coffee is strong, the kaya toast is divine, and I can finally be happy.
- Observation: The locals look at me like a bewildered tourist. (Which, let's be honest, I am).
- Mid-Morning (10:00 AM): Visit The Batu Caves. The drive there is a bit of a trek. The climb up those 272 steps is no joke! My thighs scream. I try to be respectful of the Hindu culture, but I am also a sweaty mess. The caves themselves are breathtaking, the statues are awesome, and the monkeys are cheeky little devils, who try to steal your stuff.
- Quirky Observation: I am convinced one of the monkeys is judging my fashion choices.
- Afternoon (1:00 PM): Lunch at a nearby restaurant. I was hoping to be adventurous and try something new, but I end up at a hawker stall. It is so good. I order way too much food and end up with a severe case of the food coma.
- Afternoon (3:00 PM): Walk around the Central Market. This place is touristy, but it's also kind of charming. I start purchasing some stuff I don't need, but hey, memories, right?
- Late Afternoon (5:00 PM): Back to the condo and… the fridge is still broken. It's a metaphor for my life right now (slightly dysfunctional but still holding on). Deciding to purchase snacks for the trip, and deciding to use the freezer again.
- Emotional Reaction: I vow to call reception again, but simultaneously realize I'm too tired to care.
- Evening (7:00 PM): The Return of the Culinary Quest: I am determined to have an incredible dinner. This time, it's time to try some of the local food recommendations I've scribbled down.
- Night (9:00 PM): Back to the condo and finally use the microwave. I can't believe it, but it's fixed! I am happy.
Day 3: (Unplanned, Unorthodox, and Probably Slightly Insane)
- Morning (Whenever I wake up… the jet lag's a beast): Sleep in. I deserve it.
- Mid-Morning (11:00 AM): Breakfast leftovers. I am not hungry, but I need to eat something.
- Afternoon (1:00 PM): Decision Time: What Now? This is where the itinerary takes a dramatic turn. My mind wanders to my bucket list.
- Afternoon (2:00 PM): I explore the shopping malls. I cannot believe the variety of stuff you can get here.
- Late Afternoon (5:00 PM): Final day.
- Evening (7:00 PM): Farewell dinner in the area. Final meal.
- Night (9:00 PM): Pack up.
- Final thoughts: I should have taken this trip sooner.
Day 4: Departure (And a Promise to Return)
- Morning (Whenever the taxi shows up – seriously, Kuala Lumpur traffic…): Final look at the view. Maybe a tear or two.
- Departure: Back to reality. Back to boring routines. But with memories of Kuala Lumpur.
This is just a starting point, you understand. It is going to be chaotic. It is going to be messy. It is going to reflect my (admittedly) highly flawed but wholeheartedly human travel experience. I embrace the imperfections. I embrace the spontaneity. I embrace the exploding wine bottles. Wish me luck. And maybe send chocolate. Or wine. Preferably, that will survive the freezer."
