When it was planned in the late 1980s, it was initially named Bandar Syed Putra, named after Jalan Syed Putra Federal Route 2 that runs through the southern flank of the development. The site that was selected for the development was formerly occupied by an abattoir.

First planned in 1991 as one of two mega retail projects in Kuala Lumpur,{{cite news |title=Retail space demand still strong |url=https://eresources.nlb.gov.sg/newspapers/digitised/article/biztimes19910724-1.2.22.4 |work=Business Times (Singapore) |agency=Bernama |date=24 July 1991}} IGB began developing phase one of Mid Valley in mid-1992, projected to cost RM 650 million.{{cite news |title=IGB expects more than M$350m in sales from Rawang project |url=https://eresources.nlb.gov.sg/newspapers/digitised/article/biztimes19920131-1.2.16.10?qt=rawang,%20selangor&q=rawang%20selangor |work=Business Times (Singapore) |agency=Bernama |date=31 January 1992}}

It is accessible by both road and rail transport.

Rail transport is provided directly by KTM Komuter via {{KLRT code|KB|01}} Mid Valley Komuter station on the {{Rint|my|1}} {{lnl|KLRT|1}}. The KTM station connects directly with the eastern entrance of Mid Valley Megamall.

Pedestrian access is possible via a walk from the Robinsons store in The Gardens mall, first via a bridge across the Klang River, then through the adjacent KL Eco City development project. A pedestrian bridge from The Gardens mall to Abdullah Hukum station has been constructed, and is opened to public since around 2019.

Mid Valley City is a stop for Rapid KL buses routes including 822 (to {{KLRT code|KJ|16}} Bangsar), T788 (to {{KLRT code|KJ|19}} Universiti) and T817 (to {{KLRT code|KG|13}} Pusat Bandar Damansara).

The Gardens mall also provided shuttle bus services to Mont Kiara ({{KLRT code|KA|05}} Segambut), but it is restricted to Mont Kiara residents only.{{cite web |title=Complimentary Shuttle Bus Services |url=https://thegardensmall.com.my/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/BG-Schedule-1024x800.jpg |accessdate=20 November 2018}}
