This was our second time to the Sentral Hotel Kuala Lumpur. The hotel is just a five/ten minute walk from Sentral Station where you arrive either by a seventy five minute bus journey or a thirty minute train journey from KLIA or LCCT.

The breakfast is a too letdown and badly cooked and... More

I spent one night at hotel Sentral and to be honest, that was enough, The staff were very polite and friendly, but the hotel itself is very old and tired and could use a good overhaul. I did not expect a palace, however i did not expect to see half used soap and soap scum from the previous visitor! The... More

One of the best of the lot.! Very good and polite staff.. Good room services. We were on the 8th floor and view was also very good. Hotel restaurant on 5th floor along with the terrace is a must visit. Very nice experience :)
