Kuala Lumpur
This low-scale gem occupies an old building that looks like it was made from a giant's set of building blocks. The Luxe rooms (RM150) allow you to peer out of the large signature circular windows on to the street. Other compact, functional rooms gain their light from the interior courtyard, one wall of which is covered in lush greenery.
When we last visited, plans were in the works to create a rooftop garden.
