Great place to stay good value and easy check in at Sentral with Malaysia Airlines. Buffet breakfast really good value and the usual friendly Malaaysian service

Located right off KL Sentral station, this is about as perfect a location as it gets for a short business trip to Kuala Lumpur. The KLIA Ekspres train brings you here within half an hour from the KL International Airport; a taxi ride would cost three times as much and could take three times longer at rush hour. The restaurants are reasonably nice, though the bar is evidently meant for only leisure travellers as service is painfully slow.

On the other hand, it is not the hotel I would choose had I more time on hand for leisure activities. Although well-connected to most parts of KL via the public transport network, there is not a lot to do in the vicinity of the property. The rooms are relatively small and the service adequate but not in the same league as some of the other KL hotels that I have stayed in. IN particular, one night was somewhat uncomfortable as the air-conditioning did not work properly and the complaint had to be escalated before a satisfactorily resolution was obtained,

This is a fine hotel but that is about the best I can say for it. It is well located to travel to and from the airport on the train but other things are not that convenient. The rooms are small and the restaurant was ok but not great. Overall a fine choice but there are many better values in KL.

I stay at Le Meridien whenever I go on business trips to Kuala Lumpur. It is right next to KL Sentral which has a direct express train link to the KL International Airport. This is the fastest way to travel between KL city centre and the airport, taking about 30 minutes each way at RM35 for a one-way trip. Taking a taxi would cost you more and take a longer time. Le Meridien has a twin tower which houses the Hilton hotel. The two share the same pool which is one of the largest for a hotel that I've seen in Southeast Asia. I personally feel Le Meridien is better than the Hilton for a simple reason. It is cheaper and yet shares the same location and pool with no big difference in room quality or service. Talking about service, I've always been treated well at Le Meridien. They have a good business centre at the ground floor which is willing to accommodate requests even at unearthly hours. I had pages printed in the wee hours of the morning without a single complaint. One thing is for sure. My next business trip in KL, I'm definitely ending up at Le Meridien again.
