Seem to remember shangri-la having good location but plumped for MNO just thinking it would be the best in the city and didnt have time to research when booked.

Any knowledge much appreciated!

Even though they are both somewhat on the same street (you can walk from one to the other using Jalan P Ramlee), the MO is better location/access-wise. The rooms are also gorgeous with fantastic views. The Shang definitely has a leg up when it comes to restaurants in terms of sheer variety, but the MO's proximity to Suria KLCC mall takes care of that.

IMO, MO is the way to go in KL.
