If the location is a problem at Le Meridien then how is the Aloft on the other side of the station better? Of your reasons, only the pool is a differentiator. For Plats and above the Le Meridien is the more obvious choice because of its excellent lounge benefits. But on all my recent returns to KL I’ve found myself at the Westin (where I am right now) and end up upgraded to the residence suites overlooking Pavilion which is *exactly* where I want to be and walkable to Changkat and KLCC. If they’d built Le Meridien here it would be perfect. Location, location, location.
