Hi fellow travelers,
I’m planning a trip to Kuala Lumpur and trying to figure out the best areas and hotels for different budgets. I’d love some advice from those who’ve actually stayed there.
Some questions I have:
For luxury travelers, which hotels or neighborhoods offer comfort, safety, and easy access to top attractions like Petronas Towers, KL Tower, and Bukit Bintang?
For budget travelers, which areas are safe, convenient, and have good hostels or budget hotels? Any recommendations for guesthouses or boutique hostels?
Are there neighborhoods that are centrally located but also offer great food, nightlife, and local experiences?
How important is proximity to public transport like the LRT, Monorail, or KTM stations for first-time visitors?
Any tips on booking—should we go for hotels, serviced apartments, or Airbnb for a better mix of comfort and cost?
I’d love to hear your personal experiences, favorite stays, and tips for making the most of both luxury and budget options in KL.
