Operating in reduced circumstances (the Carcosa mansion has
long been shuttered for repairs) this heritage property - once the residence of British gov-
ernment representative Sir Frank Swettenham - rustles up colonial elegance. The Seri
Negara mansion has five conservatively designed, spacious suites, perfect for non-rock-
star VIPs. See how the other half live by splashing out on the hotel's excellent fulsome tea
which you can enjoy overlooking a manicured lawn.

Attached to the swanky Gardens Mall, this luxury
hotel and serviced residences are very appealing. Wood panelling with lattice details and
striking flower prints on the walls make the rooms' decor pop; the apartments are even
better.
