Resorts World Genting, Resort hotel in Bentong District, Malaysia.
Resorts World Genting is a resort hotel in Bentong District, Malaysia, located at 1,800 meters (5,900 feet) altitude and comprising seven hotels with 10,500 rooms. The complex features multiple buildings connected by walkways and covered corridors, housing accommodation, dining outlets, retail spaces, and entertainment facilities.
The complex was established starting in 1965 when Chinese entrepreneurs began developing the mountain area into a tourist destination. Over several decades, the site grew through successive expansions, adding new hotels and leisure facilities.
The resort presents multiple entertainment venues featuring international performances, global dining establishments, and regular seasonal celebrations throughout the calendar year.
Access is available via a cable car system or by road, with both options connecting from Kuala Lumpur. Temperatures are cooler than the lowlands due to the altitude, so bringing warmer clothing is advisable.
The site includes a theme park called Genting SkyWorlds that combines outdoor and indoor sections, allowing operation in any weather. This design enables continuous access regardless of rain or fog, which are common in this mountain region.
