Level 6 · NU Sentral · Kuala Lumpur

The city’s busiest crossroads, seen from above.

Every rail line, the airport express and 160,000-plus daily mall visitors converge below. On the sixth floor, a glasshouse rooftop turns that energy into lunches, celebrations and late nights. This is the home of Vivamore Dining and SkyLounge.

Location

Everyone passes through here.

KL Sentral was planned as Malaysia’s great intermodal hub, on 72 acres of former railway yard and masterplanned by Kisho Kurokawa, who also designed KLIA. NU Sentral is the mall wrapped around it. The rooftop sits at the top of the whole complex.

    A guest base that arrives by itself

    The mall was opened in March 2014 as Malaysia’s first “transumer” mall, which means shopping built into the daily commute. More than a decade on, the commuters, travellers, hotel guests, office teams and residents around it make for a daytime and evening crowd that few Kuala Lumpur addresses can match.

    Nobody needs to find parking or plan a long journey. They step out of a train, ride the glass escalators and arrive on Level 6.

    The neighbourhood

    A district built for people who eat out.

    Around the rooftop is a dense, varied customer base: international hotels, corporate towers, high-rise residences and one of Kuala Lumpur’s most characterful food neighbourhoods.

    Five hotels within walking distance

    International guests make up a natural lunch, dinner and nightcap crowd, with the rooftop only an escalator ride from the lobbies.
