Stayed at Bintang Warisan Hotel - Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.

Perfect location, accessible to any main shopping center eg Starhill, Lot 10, Sungai Wang Plaza, PP plaza. It's just 5 mins walking distance to the Monorail station. Nightlife is very happening around the hotel. Many foot massage services operate until late night.

For those looking for an excellent location of a hotel, Bintang Warisan is the answer. Major shopping malls are at the door steps...Times Square is less than 10 minutes away should you decide to catch a midnight movie like I did.
Overall, I'm really satisfied with my stay at the hotel and will patronize the hotel again in the near future.

If there's more than four of you get a taxi (no more than 10 RM/$3 anywhere in center) if your on your own get moto rail
go to Bombay place for a curry china town for all cheap goods-remember to hagle, at least half the price of what they are saying-tshirts for $2 and DVD's for $4.

Chinatown: Had our dinner at the roadside stall along Jln Sultan, which is much cheaper compared to those seafood restaurants, whose staff is always asking us to patronise them whenever we walked pass.
Zouk: Sort of a more high-class pub & disco in town, the way the people dress more formal, the feeling is a bit different as compared to S'pore (also visited another disco that plays mostly chinese pops, but the tremble & high bass of the music makes us stay only for awhile).
One-Utama: A huge shopping complex at Damansara, about RM10 from KL by taxi.
Jln Bukit Bintang: One bak kuk teh restaurant along the main street (opposite the Federal Hotel) sells very nice dishes, definitely worth the money.
The Mall: A fairly older shopping complex compared to others in town, but its close proximity to our hotel makes us visit more than once.

Stayed at Coronade Hotel Kuala Lumpur, The - Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.

Best place to shop with reasonable price (Berjaya Time Square, Mid Valley Mega Mall, Sungei Wang Plaza, KL plaza, BB Plaza and KLCC and many more). Tour to Genting highlands was remarkable (one day tour, reservation available through the hotel), not forgetting visit to P. RAMLEE (famous late actor) museum gallery. The food was nice and lots of selection. Really enjoyable trip.

Stayed at Corus hotel Kuala Lumpur - Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.

Unless you're interested in T-shirts and fake designer purses and watches, skip the Chinatown street of Jln Petaling and the Little India street of Jln Masjid India - they've lost any authentic charm they may once have had.
I would recommend a visit to the Forest Research Institute of Malaysia, (FRIM) just outside of the city for a walk in the rainforest and across the canopy walkway. A taxi will cost only RM40 return plus waiting time.

Petronas Towers spectacular--shopping centre attached a mixture of expensive international labels, and good value local product--Isetana department store great range and prices. Chinatown great fun--fakes of every description, with watches, handbags and shoes great buying. Overall, KL a very nice city to visit for a few days

If one travels to KL for the purpose of shopping, this is the place. From KLCC to Bukit Bintang, the array of shops and vendors were simply marvellous. Road side stalls together the air-conditioned malls were wonderful arrangements, especially along Bukit Bintang. Keep at least half a day for KLCC and another for Bukit Bintang. Shop and eat should be all you cared for. Nothing else seems important. If you have time to kill, one day each at each venue would have filled your hands with shopping bags and stomach full with delicacies. Avoid though the food street at Bukit Bintang which boasts local food. You can find equally good (if not better) food in restaurants in which most are priced very reasonably.
Chinatown is not quite worth the walk unless one is there for Mont Blanc imitation and the like and are prepared to bargain hard.
On the whole, KL is one place highly interesting and colourful with very courteous people. It is definitely worth going and re-going which I have done.
