MoMo's celebrates creative collaboration whilst offering a design-led lifestyle hotel at a value-for-money price point. Alongside micro rooms, MoMo’s KL provides guests with a dynamic social space that engages with creative communities and urban nomads. The hotel has been designed to inspire memorable moments, through fun creative programming and a unique food and beverage offering.

Designed by Sydney-based interiors and architecture studio, Akin Atelier, MoMo’s Kuala Lumpur is the first property of Ormond Group's playful hospitality-concept. Located in the vibrant Chow Kit neighborhood, this newly renovated hotel is a haven for visitors and locals alike. With 99 guest rooms, MoMo's KL offers a fun and laid-back multi-dimensional space where people can come together in harmony.

MoMo's KL sets itself apart with its focus on social interaction and regeneration. By launching in the Chow Kit neighborhood, the hotel aims to bring fresh personality to Kuala Lumpur and revitalize the area. It caters to young, culturally-driven travelers who seek a design-focused and value-conscious experience.

The design of MoMo's KL is characterized by its vibrant and playful atmosphere. The interiors, created by Akin Atelier, reflect the hotel's commitment to creativity and collaboration. The space is designed to inspire memorable moments, with fun creative programming and a unique food and beverage offering.

MoMo's KL opened its doors in December 2019, following a successful collaboration between Akin Atelier and Ormond Group. The project faced the challenge of creating a social hotel that would engage with the local community and provide a unique experience for guests. The result is a vibrant and dynamic space that encourages social interaction and fosters a sense of belonging.

This prestigious award acknowledges the hotel's well-designed, practical, and innovative approach, as well as its contribution to a better world through industry best practices and competent technical characteristics.
