A major challenge was retrofitting modern AV solutions into the existing structure of the building, previously known as Wisma KFC, which had a shallow ceiling and tight coordination requirements with existing electrical systems. Ideal Systems tackled these challenges with meticulous planning, coordination, and on-site adaptability ensuring a flawless outcome.

Originally built in the 1990s, the Wisma KFC building on Jalan Sultan Ismail underwent a four-year transformation before becoming Hyatt Centric City Centre Kuala Lumpur. The property was acquired by Hap Seng Consolidated Bhd after being repurposed into a luxury hotel. Today, it stands as a modern and technologically advanced hospitality destination, seamlessly blending history with modern innovation.

With its state-of-the-art AV integration, Hyatt Centric City Centre Kuala Lumpur sets a new standard for luxury, functionality, and immersive guest experiences. Ideal Systems is proud to contribute to this landmark project and looks forward to continuing to redefine AV excellence in the hospitality industry.
