What MoMo’s lacks in size, it more than makes up for in personality. Its 99 minimalist rooms have everything you need and nothing more: all rooms come with 43-inch smart televisions with device casting, comfy beds, warm dimmable lighting to help set the mood, toiletries from Jeanie Botanicals and free high-speed WiFi throughout the property. Accommodation aside, MoMo’s biggest pull is that it’s a “social hotel” with a regular roster of events; instead of a traditional lobby (boring!), it has The Playground, a dynamic, ever-evolving space that hosts a line-up of exciting events, parties and food pop-ups.
The restaurant serves crave-worthy comfort food from juicy burgers and cheesy pastas to crispy, shareable snacks and milkshakes, while the bar has all-day happy hour, cocktails, mocktails, and more.
Which room? This depends: do you like bunk beds, or are you a couple or simply prefer a queen-size bed? Either way, the Bunkies are compact at 12sqm, while the Crashpads are outfitted with either a queen bed or two twin beds.
What’s nearby? Sights such as Chow Kit Market, Kampung Baru, temples, plus dining, drinking, and shopping options.
Budget range: Book a stay from RM110 in the heart of Chow Kit.
Time Out tip: This is a place to eat, play, and maybe sleep. MoMo's parties can go on into the night, so if you’re not down for that, indicate at time of booking that you’d prefer a quiet(er) room.
