(R1) EITA-Schneider MR [Tower MK2 High Zone] @ Arte Mont Kiara, Dutamas, Kuala Lumpur

This is a better retake of a high-rise EITA-Schneider lifts that travel 233 meters, located at a hotel within one of three towers in a mixed-use development.

Two different hotels occupy the higher floors within Tower 2: AMI Suites on levels 31 - 41 and Arté by Thomas Chan, a French-themed luxury hotel named after its property's founder with 74 rooms on levels 56 - 66 (numbers 42 - 55 are absent); the top floor had a reception lobby and restaurant that is publicly accessible. Its luxurious design also extends to its lift cabs' walls, decorated with woven metal mesh and LED strip lighting on handrails, mirrors and COP.

The hotel section had four lifts serving the ground-floor retail area (G), recreational facilities (R) and hotel levels as mentioned above. These had dual entrances similar to the resident's lifts (but the rear door opens on level G only) and same fixtures as mentioned before. The landings and call stations on all carparks had been deactivated, except when accessing CP1 and B1 respectively—guests are advised to use the opposite lifts (   • (17th Birthday) EITA-Schneider MR [Tower M...  ) to get to the ground floor for the hotel lifts.

The ride quality was decent, but several shakings were felt at full speed. At 5 m/s (or 300 m/min), they ran slightly faster than the resident ones but were too slow for this height due to a slow acceleration of less than 0.5 m/s², which sometimes led to long waits (albeit the middle car ran a bit slower at 4.5 m/s). In the express zone, the indicator displays the first below the upper floor—a characteristic of Shanghai STEP controllers, and they seemed to have emergency landings on certain floors. For some reason, level 63A is displayed as "64" instead, so the floor identifier.

One car functions as a fire lift serving all floors (65 stops/buttons in total!;    • (SLOW MODE) EITA-Schneider MR [Tower MK2 F...  ) within Tower 2 on a separate group, which also features a scrolling internal floor indicator—guests are encouraged to use the three lifts next to it to reach level 66. In conclusion, these lifts are very unique in a notable place, and it's worth filming when visiting Mont Kiara!
