Overview

Dinner in Chinatown--head for the street hawkers, just across a small street from the huge Chinese seafood restaurants. I recommend ordering claypot rice and barbecue stingray/seafood.

Swiss-Garden Hotel Kuala Lumpur

Hotel | "Swiss Garden"

I have stayed in various hotels in Kuala Lumpur, including Federal, Swiss Garden, Bintang Warisan, Shangri-La, and the Renaissance, but my favourite is still Swiss Garden. It is located not far from the Puduraya Bus Station, but is thankfully quiet. The rooms are nice, clean, and spacious - perfect after a day out. Prices are not really expensive--check out the travel sites for deals. I always go for www.travelasia.com. For the more budget conscious, there's Bintang Warisan and the Federal Hotel, both right in the heart of the Bukit Bintang area of shopping, pubs, and other nightlife.
