Hotel wedding venues are popular for good reason: comfort and convenience. Accommodation for your guests, getting ready in comfort, plus not having to head home right after the after-party.

With a smaller guest count, it might seem like the options open up—perhaps a smaller ballroom or function room in a hotel. But here’s the catch: putting 150–200 guests in a ballroom designed for 500, especially one with high ceilings, can make the space feel cold and underwhelming. To fix that, couples often end up spending more on decoration just to create a sense of intimacy and warmth.

To help you avoid that, here are 8 hotels in Klang Valley that not only work beautifully for weddings under 200 pax but also have the right vibe and space-to-guest ratio to make your celebration feel full and festive without needing to overcompensate with décor.
