Operating since November 2021, Mercure Kuala Lumpur Glenmarie is one of Accor’s newest hotels in Malaysia. The hotel is strategically located next to the Hicom-Glenmarie Industrial Park, and is a mere 15-minute drive from Sultan Abdul Aziz Shah Airport (Subang Airport). Although Mercure Kuala Lumpur Glenmarie attracts mostly corporate clientele, it is also a popular choice for holidaymakers thanks to its family-friendly vibe.
Design Concept
The lobby of Mercure Kuala Lumpur Glenmarie is unique indeed. The interior design draws inspiration from academia, channeling the energy of campus life into the spacious hall.
At the reception area, comfortable seats allow arriving guests to rest their feet while waiting to be checked in. There are real books on bookshelves, further evoking the ambience of college libraries.
The large cello in front of Warna pays homage to the creative expression of music academies.
The columns here are embossed with alphabet “riddles,” adding a touch of intellectual whimsy to the varsity theme.
Privilege Room
Our room type is the Privilege Room with a queen-size bed. Guests can also opt for two single beds instead.
Next to the window is a cozy couch that offers a comfortable spot to relax on. Our room is located on Level 6, so we are able to enjoy nice views through the window.
True to Mercure’s #InspiredLocally ethos, every guestroom features a cartoon painting by Penang artist Reggie Lee. These works of art celebrate the Malaysian culture in a light-hearted manner, filling the air with nostalgia and local charm.
The Privilege Room features an espresso machine and coffee capsules that are replenished daily. There is also an electric kettle to brew tea.
A mini-fridge and two glass bottles of drinking water are provided too. For Privilege Room and above, the drinks in the mini-fridge are restocked every day.
Our stay includes a welcome card and four mini bottles of treats.

Hotel Breakfast
Warna is the hotel’s all-day dining outlet. The restaurant offers a wide range of dining options ranging from set lunches and themed buffets. The dishes here are crafted to reflect the Malaysia’s rich multicultural heritage, aligning with Mercure’s #InspiredLocally philosophy.
There is a “tuk-tuk” in the middle of the dining hall that also serves as an additional food counter. What an interesting idea!
