View of Outdoor Theme Park from 22nd Floor of Tower 1, First World Hotel.
First World Hotel - Malaysia's biggest hotel, was opened on December 15th,
2000. Instantly this hotel became the most happening place in Genting!
Situated 51km from Kuala Lumpur City, First World Hotel is the sixth addition to
five other hotels in Genting
The building of First World Hotel is tastefully decorated. The hotel lobby
decorated with rainforest theme .
Those who complain the rooms small are those who pay for the Standard Rooms.
Many came as a family with several children trying to pack into a standard room
intended for only a couple. But most come here for entertainment activities not
for sleeping. Get a Delux Room if you need a larger space at a little extra
price. Even bigger is the “world club room” for those with children.
This hotel, nestled 2000 meters above the sea level, covered by lush green
forests, claims to be a City of Entertainment for delightful discovery of the
whole family.
First World Hotel consists of two blocks with total 6,300 rooms accommodating
12,000 visitors. Block 1 consists of 3,300 rooms while Block 2 consists of 3,000
rooms. The rooms are furnished with modern amenities. With 6300 rooms, First
World Hotel claims to be the biggest hotel in the world, superseding MGM Hotel
in Las Vegas with 5000 rooms.
One may feel hard to decide what to eat. One can choose from the coffee house,
various international cuisine restaurants or food court that serve delightful
Asian and local treats. Tropical Cafe, the coffee house is one of the largest in
Malaysia covering an area of 44,600 sq feet with a seating capacity of 1338.
This hotel also house the Genting International Convention Center that has a
total area of 106,000 square feet. The Grand Ballroom can accommodate 3,200
people in theater style seating. It will be the largest column free hall in
Malaysia. This hall can be further divided into four smaller function rooms that
will be ideal for exhibitions, meetings, seminar rooms or any other company
function. Holding a convention at First World Hotel is a refreshing change of
experience for all. With the latest state-of-the-art facilities provided and
assisted by team of professionals in a resort environment, business will seem
more like leisure. With this additional hotel, Genting can boasts of having the
largest convention area in Malaysia.

making it the biggest indoor theme park in South Asia. First World Hotel also
