About

Hotel China Town Inn - Kuala Lumpur

Hotel China Town Inn - Kuala Lumpur sits on Jalan Petaling, the heart of Kuala Lumpur's Chinatown market. It's a 2-star property with 70 rooms, keeping things straightforward: free Wi-Fi in rooms, flat-screen TVs, and a choice of sleeping configurations from economy double rooms to superior triples.

The location is the main draw. Pasar Seni train station and the bus station are within easy walking distance, and the colourful Petaling Street market is right outside. Guests arriving by car can use private parking nearby, though the market bustle can make it tricky to find once the stalls are in full swing.

Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Hard to find when the market is busy — The entrance can be difficult to spot once the Petaling Street market is in full swing, so give yourself extra time to locate it on arrival.
  • Surcharge for credit card payments — Paying by credit card incurs an additional charge, so factor that into your budget if you don't have cash or a local card.
  • No air conditioning in standard and economy rooms — Standard and economy rooms don't have AC — only the deluxe, superior, and one reviewer's suite do. Interior standard rooms may rely on fans and the building's natural coolness.
  • Pets not allowed — If you're travelling with a pet, this isn't the place. The hotel doesn't permit animals on the property.
