Help on travels to Kuala Lumpur

... is expensive in Malaysia, relatively anyway, a beer (1/2 pint) can cost around 5 or 6 US dollars. As can entrances to clubs on occasions.

Yes, I agree with the comments about the airport rail link.
It must have been open for a couple of years at least, since I have used it in both directions, and have not been to KL recently.
Not cheap-cheap, but frequent and quick and comfortable, and cheaper then taxis by far, to my knowledge.
At the city terminal (KLCC?) I found a taxi service which took me to my hotel very easily.

A well-located hotel, Malaysia Hotel BKK standard, well-priced, used to be KL Lodge Hotel.
Assume it is still there.

Thanks for the info about the rail link. I will certainly use this route when I travel to KLIA from the city as it's much more convenient to just pick up a cab to the railway stattion than book a minibus pickup - I'm always nervous that they won't turn up, so end up booking one for way too early just in case. From KLIA to the city I might still get the bus - depends where my hotel turns out to be in relation to the main train station. I certainly don't want to have to change trains and get a taxi. If I were travelling alone, I would probably go by train to the nearest train station to my hotel and then walk. But my BF is going with me and he doesn't do walking!

Just in case Wowpow's looking, KLIA = Kuala Lumpur International Airport, BF = Bloody F .. er sorry, Boy Friend
