Resorts World Genting

Rooms here are reserved for casino guests only, which gives this mid-campus hotel a quiet exclusivity that the 7,000-plus-room neighbor down the hill cannot claim. It sits inside the sprawling Genting Highlands resort complex about 45 minutes from Kuala Lumpur, but its restaurants are open to all, so non-guests turn up anyway. The Belgravia suite runs to three bedrooms and a ceiling covered in living greenery, which is one way to forget you're inside a casino resort.
