Chinatown hotels & accommodations

Hotel location is only 3-5 minutes walk from the Metro Train - Majid Jamek Station. It also conveniently to take approximately 5 minutes walk to Central Market, Chinatown & flea market on Petaling St. Good staff all around & clean modern room! One of the best value 4 stars hotel for it location & services! I highly recommended for it location & it 4 stars value!

ancasa hotel in chinatown offers great shopping, night life and plenty of eateries. Public transport including either taxis or public buses are plentiful. Such a great location. We would recommend to any traveller going to Kuala lumpur.The hotel itself is always clean and staffs are friendly and helpful. If one requires Breakfast lunch or dinner, the hotel restaurant o...

Ahyu Hotel is a treasure Chinatown KL. Simple yet elegant in its own special way plus super affordable. The owner and staff are super accommodating. The place is very near to most tourist attraction in KL and just walking distance to tourist spots within the Chinatown area. LRT station is just around the corner so getting to places outside Chinatown would not be a hass...

More recently spruced up than its chain counterparts elsewhere in the city, the Citin Masjid Jamek is an oasis of clean modernity amid the bustling, alluring stench of Little India. Hard to imagine a more central location in KL, with Chinatown, Bukit Bintang still within 15 mins walking distance (and several train stations 2 mins down the street). Get in while it's fr...

There are a lot of things I love about Big M Hotel. Before I booked my hotel in KL, I was checking online the reviews. And I did the right choice in staying here. IDEAL LOCATION It has the best location. The train station is just a few meters away. Just at the back of the hotel. So, it’s easier to go to the different places in KL. There are fast food chains in the a...

Positioned right in the centre of Chinatown, and a minutes walk from the metro or light rail, it's very convenient to get around KL. The hotel itself is comfortable, even the cheapest rooms are spacious with decent bathrooms and comfortable beds. Wi-Fi is fast and experienced no drop-outs. Common complaint here is that the air-con cannot be adjusted, whilst it didn't ...

The 5th Element Hotel is a great budget option for staying around Chinatown. I've stayed in several sub $50 hotels in Chinatown and they've been horrid, and this hotel was only a fraction more but really quite nice. We were able to check in to all 3 rooms we'd booked at 11am which was fantastic after an overnight flight, and we were delighted to find our rooms had view...

The hotel is new so everything is clean and in great condition. I requested a room facing the road during booking and they assigned me such room. I love the location. The hotel is nestled between 2 LRT stations, i.e. Pasar Seni and Masjid Jamek. You can change to MRT line at Pasar Seni. It is literally behind the Central Market so it is convenient to explore Chinatown ...

I checked into Arenaa Star on the 21st October and stayed here for 2 nights. It was a very pleasant stay. First and foremost after putting down my luggage, I ventured to the hotel's open air restaurant located on the Mezzanine floor. The seafood olio oglio I ordered was good. I also tried grilled chicken and lamb chop on subsequent days and they are all ridiculously c...

After getting past a particularly obnoxious male receptionist, who was insisting we had a twin room, when clearly I had booked a double room. We got the room I ordered within minutes, but I could have done without this initial unnecessary unpleasantness! Anyway, this is a great place to stay. Our room on the 4th floor was not spacious but very adequate. Enclosed qualit...

Getting to the hotel is a bit confusing if your cab driver doesn't know that this hotel is situated on the 4th floor of Puduraya Bus Terminal and you have to go through the parking areas. It was a good thing that I read the reviews, which proved very helpful in getting here. There is another AnCasa Hotel right across Ancasa Express @ Pudu. So don't mention the hotel's ...

I think it's quite a new hotel, run by Tamil staff. Staff friendly and helpful. Ideally situated close to LRT Pasar Seni, Central Market, Kasturi Walk, Jalan Petaling, etc. Not much character, but excellent value, clean, quiet and everything one needs. Great views over the city from window - National Mosque, etc. We booked 3 hotels in Malaysia on this trip, and Lavana ...

I have stayed here before and it would have been a wonderful hotel at one time. Is still veryoung clean,staff very helpful, everything in good condition. Seems to be a favourite for package tours so not the kind of place to meet new people by the swimming pool. The pool is covered by a roof so is quite cool if not cold. Is very close to Maharajalela Monorail station bu...

hotel is situated in the middle of chinatown, if you are hungry for food, there is no worries of finding food to satisfy your hunger. in chinatown, you need to bargain your price when shopping. the guide to bargain is to offer 20% of the asking price of the seller and slowly increase from there based on how much you perceived the buying price to be for each products...

Just spent one night in kl this time to catch the train to ipoh next day and was looking for a cheap as possible bed. I was quiet surprised to find the most stylish dorm i've ever seen. Everything is new, clean, bright and stylish. There was two toilets and one shower for three people as well as a separate sink in the room. Good aircon, flat tv, free and fast wifi. Heh...

I've been traveling for 10 months now so when I find places like this, I get giddy. Clean (daily housekeeping), cheap , private rooms with AC, bathroom + shower, and a TV you can plug your laptop into. It's right at the entrance to Petaling Street, Chinatown so cheap street food abounds. The Subway, Light-rail, and bus station are a few hundred feet away making it a...

it is easy to go from airport to hotel, i follow the advise from the feedback here and take star shuttle bus. i buy the ticket once out of the airport immigration. the counter people are asking loudly for customers. it is only myr$8 now. the chinatown road is full of push carts that it block the shops on the inside. i can't see the hotel door, need to look for the ...

Due to house moving issues, I have stayed in Leo Leisure for 2 months. The reason why I didn't move out to another budget hotel will be obvious if you have spent a night here. Firstly, you will be helpfully welcomed by the supervisor Kenny Tam. Kenny will sort out any issue you have with a smile. His motto is that if he can do it, he will definitely do it for you. Fo...

midah hotel is a strategic hotel. it's near with chinatown and monorail station. around 10 minutes to get there. it's also close with supermarket. the hotel quite clean and comfortable. good menu on the breakfast but the staff on the restaurant lack of serving the meal. the hotel also have free wi-fi. the price is reasonable and achieveable. the staff is so friendly al...

I just left the Lotus Hotel and was very pleasantly surprised. Its a very comfortable new 3* hotel, with a team of very helpful staff on the reception. Travelling as a solo woman, I felt very safe and well looked after, with absolutely no hassle. The location is great. I get lost anywhere, especially KL! But the hotel is just opposite the LRT station for Jami...

i always consider location and availability of my needs whenever i choose a hotel particularly if it's only a short trip. in my recent visit to malaysia's capital, i stayed in hotel 1915 kuala lumpur and i was content with everything. despite the small room-area, i like the fact that the toilet and shower (hot & cold) and the rest of the room are clean. its location in...

We did a last min booking at about 4pm and headed there few hrs later. Guess the booking didn't go through so soon so the staff upgraded one of our rooms to the essential room (was both superior). It was very near to petaling st and there were 24hrs eateries and 7-11 nearby the hotel. Very convenient if u just want a clean place to sleep.

I was really happy with this hotel. The staff was excellent! They were polite, friendly, and quick to respond to any request or problem. The room was comfortable and quite big for the price paid. Breakfast is not much but quite tasty. I like that they always have some fruit available in their breakfast menu. You can also walk to the monorail and to the Chinatown. The o...

Great budget hotel in chinatown, close to restaurants and local stalls, many ahopping opportunities around, two minutes walk to pesar seni station, 20 minutes on foot to the KLCC, great location really close to pudu sentral bis station, from where most of the buses depart, within walking distance to the Kl sentral station. Fast check in and check out. Rooms are clean, ...

1. Value for money 2. New hotel 3. Clean & comfortable 4. Friendly staff 5. Free WIFI 6. Air Cond + LCD TV (both with remotes) 7. Own toilet & bathroom with water heater 8. Toiletries, towels, body shampoo & shampoo are provided 9. Easy to be located (beside main road) 10. Although the hotel does provide parking facility, parking was easy to find and if parked...

PROS : STAFF OR RECEPTIONIST VERY ATTENTIVE WHEN YOU HAVE SOME QUESTIONS, THEY ANSWER WITH A BIG SMILE THATS A BIG THING TO ME, THEY KNOW HOW TO HANDLE CUSTOMER, AFFORTABLE & HUGE SPACE, VALUE FOR MONEY, NEAR CHINATOWN AND MRT, if you looking for descent and huge room dont hesitate to book this hotel, for 4days i stayed there hotel most of their staff are old b...

As a group of 6 people with a mixture of family and friends, Back Home hostel has a pretty comfortable environment. It's in a central location 10min walk from the little Chinatown market, 10 min drive from the towers, and about a 30 min drive from Batu cave.The staff was also helpful in scheduling and arranging transportation to ensure that we receive the best pri...

I think the clue is in the name: mingle. I got the impression the hostel is brilliant for meeting other travellers. The upstairs bar is really nice and serves great G&Ts ;) The place is very hip and just below is a fancy cafe. The location is great...easy access to malls and right by ChinaTown. The best thing about the place is the staff: Very friendly and ever helpf...

Great security with swipe card required to enter room. Lockers provided. As a bonus, towel was also provided!! I will DEFINITELY stay here again without hesitation. 10/...

located near the station, this hotel provides relaxed atmosphere for travelers. Since it is quite new, all rooms are clean. You can definitely feel comfotable staying here!! Staffs are very kind and great. You can also go to Chinatown and the market. Breadkfast and free wifi are included. I highly recommend you stay in this hotel!

Im sdo happy staying on this hotel. Very clean. We got room om 3 levels but there is a lift bringing up from 1 level. AC is very good, cool. Price is also cheap and worth with the facilities. Unfortunately it's a difficult to find the location because actually this guaesthouse is not in Chinatown. It's nearer from Pasar Seni LRT Station. We spent 2 hours on chinato...

Submarine guest house was one of the many hostels we stayed at while touring through southeast asia. We, along with a group of interns we met in Malaysia, stayed at this hostel many times. The proprietor wasn't particularly warm or welcoming (even though we were repeat customers) but we continually came back because it was situated close to the main areas of chinat...

I really loved my stay here, it's a great location.. close to Chinatown,Markets and Public buses and trains. Dorms are clean and cool, Multiple bathrooms which is handy, there is free breakfast, coffee and cold filtered water, also there is a balcony which is a great communal area to socialise and hangout :). But the best part of this hostel is the staff! always lovel...

Located in an old shophouse in the heart of Chinatown. Don't be misled by the lobby which looks a bit untidy and worn-out: individual rooms are actually nicely furnished with cosy climb-up bed and comfy sofa (my favourite place!) and TV below. Unfortunately most of these rooms do not have windows :-( Shared bathrooms are modern, neat and clean. Very friendly and helpfu...

We choose this "hotel" because we needed something for two nights in Chinatown. So for the 1st time in our journey, we choose the cheapest from all rooms in that location on Agoda. Normally we did not stay in that kind of places, so we wasn't impressed at all, but you got what you pay for... i think. Room was clean, looks and smell old and odd, but was clean. Bathroom...

Right next to the LRT (Pasar Seni, one stop from Sentral) and the bus lines (there's a free bus too), good cheap lunchtime Indian food right out of the door, chinatown tourist street is nearby if you find value in that, clean place, friendly staff, shower toilets are combined (so there is always water on the floor from the shower but that's ok, where flips if it bother...

Loved staying here. Staff are awesome. Dorm rooms are cheap and airy/bright. Roof terrace/kitchen facilities are great. Location is very good, near to lots of cafes in chinatown area and also 2 min walk to Pasar Seni LRT. Shower and toilet facilities were also great and kept very clean.

While the rooms could use some more decoration, the Guesthouse on its whole is a good bargain place. The location couldn´t be better for the price one pays. It´s just 5 minutes walk from Puduraya bus station, allowing for easy transfers across Malaysia and 7 minutes walk to LRT lines 3 & 4. It´s also at walking distance of places like Masjid Jamek, Chinatown or the C...

Even though they didn't give any locker to put your things, each bed is covered by curtain. Thus, it is safe to keep you belonging and it is very privacy. The toilets space is limited and please bring your own toiletries. BTW, if you want a great sleep experience, do bring along an earplug. Overall, don't have much to complaint as the price is very reasonable compare t...

Fern Loft is ideally situated in the heart of Chinatown in KL and its close proximity with rail and road transport hub is a plus. All amenities are available within couple of minutes of walking distance. I would highly recommend Fern Loft to Single Traveler as its a safe and economical place for exploring KL.

Our Family flies Air Asia and we often require a stop over in Kuala Lumpur. This is never a problem because we always stay at The Explorers Guesthouse. We travel between KLIA 2 and Chinatown on the Star Shuttle bus which has a bus stop 5 minutes walk from the guesthouse. We are always welcomed with a friendly smile no matter what time of day or night we arrive. The sta...

The room and bathroom is clean. Very close to Chinatown and 10 mins walk to Pasar Seni MRT and Pudu Sentral. We enjoyed our stay here. Unfortunately, we have to pay more than what it's said in Agoda. We booked for 2 nights and choose to pay at property. When they checked our booking, they said there's something wrong with Agoda, they said it was price only for one nig...

Le Village is a wonderful place for budget travelers. Its cheap, you get good service and you are staying in an amazing location (for sightseeing, culture, food and nightlife). I love the easy going atmosphere! You really feel that Locky (who is running this place) likes to help his guests and takes care of them. I arrived late but even though he was so welcoming and g...

Checked in early morning by 6am,the 5 beds dorm was fully occupied so I took a nap at sitting area.Suddenly I got sharp bites all around my body not sure whether it from the cushion or hotel blanket.Discomfort itching feeling that last four days.But the guesthouse itself look clean with the housekepeer's presence 24hours.The front desk staff is very attentive to my nee...

Staying in Matahari Lodge was one of the best choices I've made during 4 days KL trip. All staff were so freindly and nice, especially one of them eager to help me to set up my itinerary in KL(Thanks a lot, Juni!). And plus, its location is walking distance from public transportation spots, such as Pasar Seni LRT station (+ Kuala Lumpur KTM station + Go KL Bus stop), M...

You can get there just on foot!! Clean place, room, and bathroom. It has 5 bathrooms to share. Free breakfast-there are coffee, tea, bread and many jams, and available too a hot n cold ...

After reading the reviews about this place I wanted to try it out - it was worth of an experience. Locationwise, it's right on Petailing Street, Chinatown. Plenty of food stalls, fresh cut fruits. The room (bed) is a whole new experience and is worth trying. There are 30 stair steps to walk up to get to the lift to the reception on level 3 and I had no problem with th...

This place was an absolute pleasure from the second I walked through the door. It's really conveniently situated near train and bus stations, making it easy to see the sights. The place is really new and a spotless, has a shared kitchen and nice social area next to reception where you can meet people or chill and watch the TV. The pub crawl on a Saturday is a great ...

Stayed here for 1 night in a twin private room, before moving on to taman Negara. Found the location to be great for bus and train stations to get round the city. A short 2 min walk to either. There was also a travel agents in the hotel next door, ideal for booking trips, but it is worth checking prices for the trips online. The only down side was that you couldn't lea...

First time doing a capsule and was impressed. The capsule was spacious and came with many more gadgets and options than expected. The bed was comfortable too. Lockers are outside.

Great place for a cheap overnight stay. Located on the edge of Chinatown. We rented a small room with a double bed. The room was very clean.

More about Chinatown
Central Market, also called Pasar Seni, lies between Petaling Street and the Kelang River. In the past, it dealt mainly in produce, but the scope is broader now. Tourists come here to pick up handicrafts, replica designer goods and antiques. They can also head to the Annexe on the second floor for anything from cultural exhibitions to book signings. Pasar Seni LRT station adjoins the market.
Other shopping centers in Chinatown include Kota Raya, S & M Warisan and UO Superstore. None of these venues are as popular or glamorous as their rivals in Mid Valley City or the Golden Triangle, but they’re great for bargains. Each of these complexes has been recently renovated.
Most of the accommodation in Chinatown fronts Petaling Street. As the defining attraction, Petaling Street has the best selection of merchandise and restaurants, and it’s one of the likeliest places to find tourists in Kuala Lumpur. Cheap and authentic hawker food is widely available.
Because of its central location, Chinatown is a favorite place for tourists to be based while visiting Kuala Lumpur. It’s especially popular with backpackers and budget travelers, who make use of the Maharajaalela monorail station and Plaza Rakyat LRT station for getting around town. The Puduraya Bus Terminal, operating services to the LCCT airport and to long-distance destinations like Penang, Ipoh and Kuala Kangsar.
