Pablo666 Posted May 2, 2005 Report Share Posted May 2, 2005 Hi - am going to be in KL for the 1st time for 3-4 days - would like to stay in the heart of the action so Bukit Bintang sounds good - anyone recommend a good 2-3 star hotel? Am on a budget! Also is there a Panthip type place nearby to pick up DVD, etc? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.. Posted May 2, 2005 Report Share Posted May 2, 2005 Do a search as this has been discussed. But quicky answers: hotel = Concorde is my recommendation. Imbi Plaza for software (blows away Panthip). Be careful around Bukit Bintang as there are many gangster types (and druggies) around -- usually harmless to foreigners, but just be aware of it. Cheers, SD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nervous_Dog Posted May 3, 2005 Report Share Posted May 3, 2005 You can;t go wrong with Bukit Bintang. The Software place is in just about the dead centre. 2-3 star, can;t recomend as I have a favourite 5 star that I get at 2 star prices DOG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZMAN Z28 Posted May 3, 2005 Report Share Posted May 3, 2005 Sorry I can't help you directly about the dvd issue, but not trying to be a smart ass, but all of the movies you get at places like Panthip can be downloaded off the internet. Not sure if you have a fast internet connection, but if you do, I would recommend that over buying the same crappy quality dvd's from the street vendors. Good luck: Z Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pablo666 Posted May 4, 2005 Author Report Share Posted May 4, 2005 thanks guys....how about places that FL's hang out or good bars/pubs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nervous_Dog Posted May 4, 2005 Report Share Posted May 4, 2005 If you walk around Bukit Bintang, you'll find lots of "Offers" from Chinese men for Chinese girls. EEK However, near there is Hard Rock cafe, short distance in Taxi (About 7 Rm - 70 Baht - they rarely use meters!) Further out is a great area, with row after row of bars, LOTS of girls having fun, and some freelancerss - hard to tell whose who of course. At Hard Rock they will be more obvious. Diagonally off bukit Bintang is a nice road with some good bars, Cuba Castro and some others. DOG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CHRiSTOS Posted May 5, 2005 Report Share Posted May 5, 2005 Hi! Whenever i hear about "KL" the Beach Club gets in my mind... try it.... good fun there..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 7, 2005 Report Share Posted May 7, 2005 I'd recommend the Capitol Hotel just off Bukit Bintang. My girl and I stayed there for four days three weeks ago and it was just perfect. Do a search on the hotel websites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MooNoi Posted May 16, 2005 Report Share Posted May 16, 2005 Beach Club is the best place in KL for freelancers - mainly Philippino and a few times - expensive though! About 250RM minimum. Maybe 200RM later in the night when things get more depserate. (1 RM = 10 Baht). Low Yat Plaza is the software / hardware / computer / gadget place in Bukit Bintang. Beware a lot of the touts on Bukit Bintang soliciting girls. You may end up in an under-age place. A farang was arrested here a few months ago during a raid after being taken to a brothel by a tout. Now he's really in the shit. Hotel Malaya and Hotel Furama in the Chinatown area offer a good ST service for about 180RM. Indian and Malay girls on offer mostly. Accomm in the Bukit Bitnang area - try the Radius or the Federal. Do a search on the web. Hope this helps. FlyP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
