Where We Stand

We sell KL360, so read this knowing that. Every fact about CloutHaus below comes from a published source, named next to it. Where something is my opinion, I say so.

My verdict: if you are buying for returns, KL360 is the smarter buy. CloutHaus is a trophy address, and you pay trophy prices for it.

Why KL360 Comes Out Ahead

1. About half the price per square foot. Roughly RM1,498 psf against CloutHaus’s reported average of around RM2,900. Rent does not scale with price: a unit that costs twice as much does not let for twice as much, because the ceiling on what a guest pays per night is set by the hotels around it, not by what you paid. So the cheaper unit usually produces the higher yield, and here the gap is wide.

2. Lower maintenance, every month, for the whole hold. RM0.66 psf against about RM0.80, both with the sinking fund included. On the entry units that is about RM310 a month at KL360 against about RM439 at CloutHaus’s smallest.

3. It is built to hold its nightly rate. Most towers near KLCC sell the address and the view. When new short-stay supply arrives (the developer’s own estimate is around 6,000 units coming into downtown KL), a building with only a view competes on price. CloutHaus has a strong residents’ facility list. KL360’s rooftop is different in kind: designed as an attraction people pay to visit, on top of a 55,000 sq ft facilities floor. That gives guests a reason to pick this building, not just this postcode, and it is what the 5% floor stands on.

4. The MRT is at the door. About 50 metres, roughly 60 steps, to Raja Uda MRT, two stops from Persiaran KLCC on the Putrajaya Line (MRT Corp). Ask any other launch for the metres, not “walking distance”.

5. Being across from the towers is what the price pays for. CloutHaus’s CEO describes the site as right across from the Petronas Twin Towers (The Edge, Oct 2024). That is a real draw, and it is why the price per square foot is almost double. For a guest, it adds a view and a short walk. From KL360 they are at KLCC in minutes and on the rest of the MRT network too. In my view you are better off owning the attraction than paying for the walk.

6. The earlier handover is the weakest reason to choose. CloutHaus’s first tower is expected in 2Q 2029, KL360 in early 2030. Neither pays you before handover, and you will hold either for ten years or more. Buying KL360 now gets you first pick of floor, view and facing, which is where long-term value sits.

7. Its delivery is watched by a ministry and a bank. Assume every developer here can finish. KL360 is a white-knight revival of the former M101 site under the Housing Ministry’s abandoned-projects programme, with the Minister officiating the June 2026 groundbreaking, RM182 million of financing from Bank Rakyat, and China State Construction building it. In my view that makes it the best-supervised launch in the city centre.

Where KL360 Sits

Entry is 470 sq ft at RM680,000 net, roughly RM1,498 psf, freehold, beside Raja Uda MRT on Jalan Tun Razak. Maintenance RM0.66 psf all-in with the sinking fund included. The hospitality programme carries a contracted 5% minimum yield on net purchase price over 5 + 5 years, with owners taking 70% of the revenue pool above the floor.

On those inputs, the entry unit breaks even at about 17 nights a month — roughly 57% occupancy — at an estimated RM325 a night against monthly outgoings near RM3,444.

Which One Is For You

If you want the trophy address directly across from the Twin Towers, and you are buying mainly for prestige and the top end of the market, that is what CloutHaus sells.

If you are buying for returns, KL360: half the price per square foot, lower maintenance, the MRT at the door, and a rooftop built to keep guests coming.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is CloutHaus or KL360 the better investment?

For returns, in my view KL360. It costs about half as much per square foot (about RM1,498 against CloutHaus's reported average of around RM2,900), its maintenance is lower (RM0.66 psf against about RM0.80, both including sinking fund), it sits about 50 metres from Raja Uda MRT, and its rooftop is built as a paying attraction that helps it hold its nightly rate. CloutHaus is the trophy address directly across from the Twin Towers, and that is what its price pays for. I sell KL360, so check every figure against its source.

Is a more expensive KLCC unit a better investment?

Not on its own. A higher entry price only helps if rent rises with it, and in the city centre nightly and monthly rates do not scale one-for-one with purchase price — a unit at twice the cost rarely lets for twice as much. That usually means the cheaper unit produces the higher percentage yield, while the dearer one is a bet on capital appreciation and a different tenant profile.

How do CloutHaus and KL360 compare on maintenance?

The Edge Malaysia reported CloutHaus's serviced apartment maintenance at about 80 sen psf including the sinking fund (Oct 2024). KL360's is RM0.66 psf, also including the sinking fund. On CloutHaus's smallest 549 sq ft unit that is about RM439 a month; on KL360's 470 sq ft entry unit it is about RM310.

What happens to my yield if the building bans short-term letting?

Your income model reverts to a long tenancy, which in the city centre typically produces materially less gross revenue, though also lower running costs. Malaysian appellate courts have confirmed management corporations can restrict short-term letting via by-laws, needing a special resolution of 75% of owners then filing with the Commissioner of Buildings. Before relying on short-stay income, ask what the by-laws say and what the expected owner mix looks like.
