A five-star resort-style hotel in the outskirts of KL, featuring expansive tropical gardens. Step away from the city center to refresh both mind and body, and experience the warm hospitality of the tropics!

Hi there! I’m Ayako, a Japanese wife living in Malaysia.

Malaysia is right in the middle of durian season, but it’s coming to an end soon… I’m going to miss it so much! I managed to enjoy plenty of it this year too (^_-)-☆ Malaysian durian is said to be the best in the world, so be sure to visit Malaysia during durian season. Let’s go!!!

Now, let me introduce you to The Saujana Hotel Kuala Lumpur, a five-star resort-style hotel located just outside Kuala Lumpur. Nestled within a sprawling 160-hectare tropical garden and adjacent to a golf course, this hotel is highly popular among Japanese travelers. Whether you’re a visitor or a KL resident, it’s the perfect getaway for a relaxing holiday. Inside the garden, you’ll find a serene lake, inviting pools, and an abundance of lush tropical flora, all designed to offer you a true taste of tropical hospitality.

Must-Know Money-Saving Ayah Info

Across from The Saujana Hotel is The Japanese School of Kuala Lumpur. With a total of 697 students across its kindergarten, elementary, and junior high school divisions (as of July 1, 2020), this school is a major draw for Japanese expatriates, meaning a significant number of Japanese residents live in the Subang Jaya area.
The Saujana Hotel is adjacent to the Saujana Golf & Country Club, so many guests stay there specifically to play golf.
You can also host garden weddings in the garden area of The Saujana Hotel.
Reception is open 24 hours a day, and you can choose whether or not to include breakfast.
Parking is available, so staying by car is perfectly fine!
There are very few places within walking distance—basically just the Kuala Lumpur Japanese School and Saujana Golf & Country Club—so it’s not really feasible to go out for evening strolls.
