Good 6h stay”
We had a 9h transit wait in KL so booked 6h rooms. It was easy to find. We got the 3 kids (under 12) to share their queen bed. Rooms had private bathroom with toilet, all was clean. The beds were comfortable. We paid extra for buffet breakfast which was ok. The airport didn't much food option opened at that time of night so it was very practical. Definitely worse it if you need a good rest between flights.

Exceptional”
We are highly satisfied with excellent and exceptional service provided by the Hotel! Room was very clean, tidy and quiet for rest after a long flight. Bathroom facility was very clean and equipped with necessities. My best was to choose food within booking. Food was a big buffet and the variety was healthy and great! Specially with children it was a lot more easier to choose from a range of bakery items, hot & cold beverages and main course meals 🌸 We will definitely return and recommend to all!!!

Great hotel!”
If i have a more than 12 hours lay over in Kuala Lumpur, i'd definitely stay in this hotel again. It is inside the airport, so we dont have to go out of the airport just to have a place to sleep. It's a very nice hotel, neat, clean, great service and great breakfast too! The price is affordable. Definitely a recommendation!

Welcome Rest after a Long Flight”
After a long, direct flight from the U.S., the Sama Sama Express KLIA is a welcome respite, a place to stretch my legs in a comfortable bed and take a refreshing shower. The reception staff are always kind and welcoming. I like the fact that the Priority Pass lounge is also found at the Sama Sama. It's also a nice room and the food is quite delicious.

Spacious Room ”
As hotel transit, KLIA Sama Sama Express room size is quite spacious. I have got a room with a view of the Plane parking lot. It is better to eat in the lounge inside the hotel because food stall/cafe/restaurant near the hotel is not have many options

Very Good Solution to a Layover”
I found the Sama Sama Express clean, staff friendly and very good value for money. I booked weeks in advance which I would recommend as it fills fast. I would also recommend the breakfast buffet. While it was small compared to the big 5 star hotels, the variety was good and the food was fresh and well cooked. Again, it was good value for money.

R and R Airside. ”
Terima Kasih, Sama Sama Express. Great value for money rest area airside. The best way to rest at an affordable rate inside the airport whilst on a long transit break. Hot shower, clean linen, air conditioned and acoustically comfortable. No disturbances during the transit, several hours uninterrupted sleep and a wake up call to allow time to get to boarding gate. Highly recommended as a value for money rest option whilst in transit. Terima Kasih, Sampai Jumpa Lagi.

Restful Transit”
Absolutely perfect way to do a 4+ hour transit (ours was 6 hours).. Able to have a shower, change clothes, catch a few hours of sleep in a well air conditioned and quiet space in a good bed with nice linen. Will be back again in two weeks for a slightly longer transit of 8 hours. Have already booked in advance. Absolutely recommend this hotel for convenience, value, cleanliness and very friendly staff.

Exceptional”
Such an excellent way to recalibrate after a long flight. Spotlessly clean, quiet, rooms, a large comfortable bed with the softest sheets, tea and coffee making facilities and a well appointed bathroom make it an obvious choice.

you never would guess it”
a hotel located inside an airport with full and decent room size? whaaattt? yes despite the price, we're very happy with our stay (the whole 9 hour), it is located in the satellite part of KLIA 1, just right beside the train and bus to get to the main building. if you transit here for more than 9 hours I would recommend you to stay here since the immigration in KL is always time consuming. the room is spacious, full features and full amenities, totally quiet, you can totally get a good rest here. the down part is that the KLIA it self doesn't offer much to support the awesomeness of the hotel

Nice relaxing stop over”
We were a group of 6 people with my daughter, my mum and my in laws. We had a 15 hour stop over at KL Airport between connecting flights and I am glad we pre booked 3 rooms at Sama Sama for all of us. The staff was really helpful, Daniel was exceptional. It was nice and relaxing, the food was good and we took a shower before boarding our next flight. I would definitely stay at Sama Sama whenever I have a stopover at KL.

Beautifully convenient”
Sama sama hotel was right next to our arrival gate, staff was friendly and helpful - pointed us to where we needed to go to get our PCR tests done and also allowed us to extend our booking + add breakfast buffet when our booking did not include it. Room was clean and tidy, basic amenities and supplies provided. Would recommend if your layover is longer than 8 hours!
