Pavilion Kuala Lumpur has been honoured with Dianping’s Popular Stores in the Shopping Mall 2025 award, an international accolade from China’s largest lifestyle and review platform – often called the “Yelp of China”.
Rated the highest five-star mall on Dianping and the only mall in Peninsular Malaysia to receive this prestigious recognition, Pavilion KL further cements its exceptional appeal as a must-visit shopping destination for Chinese travellers, who contributed over RM31 billion to Malaysia’s tourism receipts in 2024.

The prestigious award is determined by millions of authentic reviews and ratings from Dianping’s 400 million users, recognising shopping malls that deliver exceptional retail, dining and lifestyle experiences. Pavilion KL distinguished itself among Chinese visitors through its curated mix of world-class brands, signature events and immersive cultural experiences.
“As Malaysia’s highest-rated five-star mall and the only mall in Peninsular Malaysia honoured with the Dianping 2025 award, Pavilion Kuala Lumpur stands as a beacon of luxury and excellence. Chinese travellers are among our most discerning visitors, and this accolade reflects our unwavering commitment to crafting extraordinary retail and lifestyle experiences. From first-time visitors discovering Malaysia to loyal patrons who call Pavilion their favourite destination, we ensure every visit is nothing short of exceptional,” said Datuk Joyce Yap, chief executive officer (retail) of Pavilion Kuala Lumpur.
Since opening in 2007, Pavilion Kuala Lumpur has evolved beyond traditional retail into a cultural and lifestyle hub that resonates with contemporary consumers. The mall has earned 60 local and international accolades, including recognition from the International Council of Shopping Centers (ICSC) and the Malaysia Shopping Malls Association (PPK).

Dianping’s Popular Stores in the Shopping Mall awards recognise retail destinations that consistently exceed customer expectations based on genuine user feedback from the platform’s extensive community.
