How to get from KUALA LUMPUR AIRPORT to Bukit Bintang by Buses
If you want to travel from KUALA LUMPUR AIRPORT to Bukit Bintang and you are on tight budget, then using a bus is the best option for you. Traveling by a bus from KUALA LUMPUR AIRPORT to KL Sentral station will cost you as little as RM10 per person. Once you get to KL Sentral station, you will find a coupon taxi that will take you to your hotel. You can also use the monorail which is a bit cheaper. However, if you decide to take this option then you will have to carry your luggage across the station then use the stairs to get to the LK Sentral station.
If you are planning to use the KL Sentral taxi coupon, then you don’t need to worry because the coupon system will protect you. However, the mistake that most people make when they arrive at the KL Sentral station from the airport via a bus is accepting the offer of taxi drivers who have packed on the exit of basement level counter. However, that is not a good idea and you should not accept their offer. Instead, you should head straight to the coupon counter section because taxi operating from the KL Sentral are on a coupon system. Try as much as possible to avoid the basement level counter.
Disadvantages of using basement level counter
-
It closes during peak hours
One disadvantage of using the basement level counter is that it closes especially during peak hours or when weather is not that good. If that happens to you, then you will be forced to negotiate with taxi drivers who have packed at the exit. If you use the coupon counter, you will pay RM13 from KL Sentral to Prescott Inn. The coupon fare has been constant for the past 4 years. However, if you choose to negotiate with drivers, then you should be ready to pay RM30 per person. You will be lucky to pay RM 20 if you have good negotiation skills.
-
They fraudulently adjust the fare
Another reason why you need to avoid the basement level counter is because the staff manning the counter usually collude with taxi drivers to increase fare prices. If you have not used the KL Sentral for a long period of time, then you may think that fare has been adjusted. However, when you head upstairs to the coupon counter, you will realize that the fare has not changed
If you need a taxi upon arrival at the KL Sentral, then we advise that you avoid using the basement level counter. Instead, you should go straight to the coupon counter upstairs at the main building on the Hilton side. Here, you will be required to take an escalator to get the coupon counter and if they are not working, then you can use the stairs. Fare price at coupon counter is very affordable (RM13). When you choose this counter, then we guarantee you that you will not have any issues as it is usually the case with basement level counter.

How to get from KUALA LUMPUR AIRPORT to Bukit Bintang by Airport taxi
If you are looking for a comfortable and convenient transport option to travel from the airport to your hotel, the airport taxi is the best option for you. The good thing about the airport taxis is that they take you straight to your hotel. However, this comfort comes at a price meaning that you should be ready to dig deeper into your pocket especially if you have many suitcases. If you travel by taxi between midnight and 6 am, then an extra 50% will be added to the coupon fare. This is standard practice in Malaysia.
If you are on a tight budget, then you can choose a budget taxi. However, if you choose a cheap taxi, then you must be willing to sacrifice your comfort. Most budget taxis run on gas. This means that most of their boot space is occupied by a gas tank. Typically, a taxi can carry 3-4 passengers comfortably and two adults with luggage. However, that is not usually the case with budget taxis. If you have luggage, then you will be lucky if two adults will fit in a budget taxi. Some taxi drivers allow passengers to store their suitcase in the boot or on the front seat. However, if the suitcase is too big, then the driver will not allow you to put it on the front seat because of safety reasons. In other words, if you choose to travel on a budget taxi, then you should be ready to sacrifice your comfort. Budget taxis are only recommended if you are alone and don’t have a lot of luggage that consumes more space. On the other hand, premium taxis are more spacious and comfortable. However, their comfort comes at a price. If you are more than two and you have luggage, then we advise that you choose a premier taxi over a budget taxi. They are more comfortable and can carry more luggage.

How to get from KUALA LUMPUR AIRPORT to Bukit Bintang by train
The fastest option to get to the KL Sentral station from the airport is by train (KUALA LUMPUR AIRPORT Ekspres). It will only take you 28 minutes to get to KL Sentral from the airport at a cost of RM35 per person. KUALA LUMPUR AIRPORT transit is also available at the same price but it takes a longer time to arrive at the KL Sentral because it makes 3-4 stops along the way. Once you get to KL Sentral, you can take a coupon taxi (which is reliable and affordable) or use the monorail to get to your hotel. The good news is that the coupon counter is available at KUALA LUMPUR AIRPORT Eskpres arrival area.
In conclusion, the total cost of travel from the airport to your hotel depends on the means of transport that you choose, the number of people travelling, the time that you are traveling as well as the size of your luggage. However, in general, the bus is the cheapest. Train, on the other hand, is the fastest while the taxi is the most convenient form of transport.
