Why we recommend this accommodation
Trion@KL offers a wealth of benefits, not just in price. Having lived here for 28 days, I've enjoyed it more than anyone else, and my family has been very satisfied. Let me share a few reasons why I recommend it.
1. Close to subway
In Malaysia, there is Grab, which is a cheap and convenient means of transportation.
However, because Kuala Lumpur's CBD is so well-developed, accommodations close to a MRT station (about a 10-minute walk) are even more useful.
If you go by Grab, it will cost you around 20-30 ringgit, but for the same distance, The subway fare is 3-4 ringgit, which is much cheaper and more comfortable.Because it can be done, the presence or absence of a subway line can be a very important factor in choosing accommodation.
2. Own shuttle bus operation
Chan Sow Lin Station is about a 10-minute walk away, but it can feel very far and difficult to get to, especially with Kuala Lumpur's daytime weather making walking very challenging.
For those people Trion@KL operates its own shuttle busDo it.
A shuttle bus runs approximately every 20 minutes (not hourly), and the hotel is only a 5-minute walk from the subway station (Chan sow lin), making it easy to catch the city rail.
but, If you arrive late during peak hours, you may have to wait in line or wait for the next train to arrive.
3. Various convenience facilities and auxiliary facilities
- 3 public pools
Trion@KL features a variety of amenities and facilities. The most striking thing is the three large POOLS.
With three types of wide pools, including the widest pool, a children's pool, and a long pool, you can enjoy swimming comfortably at any time.
Occasionally, people are seen smoking in the rooms above the pool and carelessly throwing away cigarette butts, but other than that, it is clearly a very satisfactory public pool.
- Various sports facilities
Travelers who enjoy basketball, badminton, gymnastics or table tennis can make full use of Trion@KL.
All sports facilities located on the 8th floor are available for use at any time, especially The gym, which has various equipment and treadmills, has a great view of the swimming pool and offers a variety of equipment.You can do it.
- Utilize 1st floor security
Typically, security guards are on duty at the hotel's first-floor entrance, ensuring safety and security. For travelers who frequently order food delivery via Grab, this service is very convenient.
Because there is a separate place in the lobby to leave Grab food. You can conveniently have food delivered to you without having to meet Grab delivery drivers.
- Nearby restaurants and supermarkets
It's no exaggeration to say that the most important thing about traveling is finding a good restaurant nearby. Also crucial is having a place to buy water, drinks, and light snacks.
There are quite a few restaurants on the first floor of Trion@KL where you can eat Chinese, Indian, etc., especially Estelle Bagle, the famous restaurant that my family frequented the most It is one of them.
Additionally, on the first floor, there are convenience stores such as 7-Eleven (a famous convenience store brand), Top & Shop (a Chinese specialty market), and Speed 99 (a local Malaysian brand). Just one block away, you can also find a medium-sized market with a very local feel called W Market.
Check inside the accommodation
More important than any amenities or facilities is the condition of the accommodation. Cockroaches are a frequent and plentiful presence in accommodations in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, making this a crucial factor for some travelers.
Living room and convenience
The living room is in excellent condition. I was worried about cockroaches, but they never came out, and neither did ants. It has the advantage of having UHD TV and Netflix, and the large four-person table in the living room is a great place for the family to eat or study.
Built in 2022 Trion@KL is the 12th tallest building in Kuala Lumpur (251m, 66 floors). Therefore, it is so tall that no buildings around it block the view, and it boasts a beautiful view from any direction.
The large refrigerator and washing machine inside the unit made it convenient for me to do my laundry without having to use a separate laundry service. A large refrigerator is also a crucial option for families with multiple members.
Room condition
Not only the living room, but also both the master bedroom and the small bedroom are in excellent condition. Everything is clean and there are no bugs at all. At night, the fantastic city view created by the headlights and brake lights of numerous cars is also attractive.enemyam.

Toilet & Shower
Because Kuala Lumpur is an urban area, the water used in taps is not very clean in any accommodation. Therefore, the water quality is not suitable for brushing teeth or cooking. It is highly recommended that you purchase and use a shower filter.
The rest of the room was in excellent condition. The toilet flushed well and was clean, and the shower was comfortable to use. Overall, it was a good size, and I had no complaints during my 28 days of use.
Trion@KL Honest Review
With its reasonable prices, excellent value for money, and convenient access to various amenities, Trion@KL is a place I would recommend to any traveler. In fact, it almost feels luxurious.
As with many buildings built in Kuala Lumpur, the only downside is that there are times when an unpleasant smell comes from the sink or toilet.Other than that, I rate it as perfect.
