If you have to have a geographical fix on where everything is in KL then the viewing platform on top of the tower is a must.

Contradictory to some reviews here, we enjoyed the visit to the tower. Some tips are : 1. Do not go up is its raining/haze/smog - the view would be horrible (in fact there will be no view at all). 2. Do not go in the night unless you are a professional photographer. 3. Going up in the night is recommended... More

If you have been to any other city with a tower view, do not waste your time and money on this one.

Enough people to man the whole place and didn't have to queue for long. Most staff speak English so it is definitely a plus point.

If you want to get the best view of KL then this is the place for you. The views looking back to the city are quite amazing.The tower itself is located in the middle of Bukit Nanas forrest reserve which is amzing in itself.There is also the chance to drive a simulated F1 car and visit an animal enclosure.These are...

At 45myr for the observation deck this is a bit expensive in my opinion. Nice views, try and go on a clear day.
