Visitors can explore a variety of vintage cameras, from early box cameras to more recent models
The museum also has a collection of typewriters and film rolls, providing a fascinating insight into the evolution of capturing and preserving memories.
Gold3 Boutique Hotel was born from the founder's personal journey, rooted in a humble upbringing and a deep love for travel and exploration.
Faced with the dilemma of choosing between decent accommodation and capturing memories with a film camera, the founder's dream of combining both luxuries remained unfulfilled due to financial constraints.
This regret fuelled the creation of a unique concept — a stylish and affordable camera-themed hotel in Kuala Lumpur's Bukit Bintang district, offering travellers the opportunity to capture tangible memories without sacrificing comfort.
