Antara Genting Highlands Tower A - Link Bridge to Genting
A link bridge and a laundry machine, oddly rare combination.
About this hotel
The link bridge is the practical headline here, connecting the tower directly to the wider Genting complex without needing a car or a long walk in the cool mountain air, which matters more than it sounds once you've done the walk once with luggage. The units themselves have been recently renovated, and the washing machine in every apartment is a genuinely useful inclusion for longer stays or families who don't want to pack for every contingency. Air-conditioning, a private bathroom and a balcony come standard, and the indoor swimming pool and hot tub give guests a reason to stay in rather than out on cooler evenings. A garden softens the concrete of the tower setting, and a 24-hour front desk, family rooms and executive lounge access round out a property clearly built with longer, more settled stays in mind. At 2 kilometres from First World Plaza, this is about as close as it gets without being inside the complex itself, and couples have rated the location 8.6.

Our take
The link bridge changes the calculation here: reaching Genting's main complex never needs a proper outing, which suits anyone who comes for the casino and wants a short walk back. A washing machine and kitchenette in the renovated unit make longer stays easier. The 8.8 rating rests on 39 reviews, so treat it as a good sign, not a verdict. Guests who want hotel service at the door may prefer a resort tower.
- Use the link bridge rather than the street entrance if you're heading to the main Genting complex, since it saves the walk in the cool air entirely.
- Take advantage of the washing machine if you're staying more than three or four nights, since it changes what you need to pack.
- Book ahead for executive lounge access if that perk matters to your stay, since it's not universal across every room type.
Why we love it
- Direct link bridge to the main Genting complex
- Washing machine in every unit, unusual at this level
- Indoor pool and hot tub for cooler evenings
- Just 2 km from First World Plaza
Why guests love itThe link bridge to Genting's main complex is the practical draw for a family: strollers and tired children do not need a taxi or a plan to reach the main complex. The recently renovated aparthotel units have a washing machine and a kitchenette, which helps on longer trips, and the indoor pool and hot tub suit cooler highland evenings. First World Plaza is about 2 km away. It is a base, not a full-service resort.
