MITEC is the first component and flagship of KL Metropolis, a city within a city where trade, commerce, living and transport converge over 75.5 acres of prime land development in an ambitious effort to create one of Southeast Asia’s most iconic developments, which will also comprise:
  • Condominiums and Grade A office towers;
  • 5 star hotels and an international retail centre;

  • A 260-room four-star international business hotel is part of the KL Metropolis development. It would be the first entry into the Malaysian market for the hotel brand.
A hybrid of work, play and entertainment elements, the KL Metropolis is also home to the Metropolis Park, the 5 acres (27,000 sq ft) of urban parks and recreational facilities to help enhance and maintain green spaces in Klang Valley, in line with the Greater KL initiative.
 
The KL Metropolis is strategically located and flanked by affluent neighbourhoods such Damansara Heights, Sri Hartamas, Mont Kiara and Bangsar.
