Kuala Lumpur/South of City Centre

12 Dang Wangi stations for the Kuala_Lumpur/Tuanku_Abdul_Rahman|Tuanku Abdul Rahman/Chow Kit neighborhoods and KJ|14 SBK|16 Pasar Seni or AG|7 SP|7 KJ|13 Masjid Jamek stations for Chinatown and the Central Markets and the Kuala_Lumpur/Central|Old City area. If near the Ampang and Sri Petaling LRT lines it is feasible to connect to KL Sentral by transferring to the Kelana Jaya line at Masjid Jamek.

Another option is to take the KL Monorail Kuala Lumpur Sentral station (Kuala Lumpur Monorail) (exterior), Kuala Lumpur.jpg, which terminates at KL Sentral monorailway station, about 200 m from the actual KL Sentral complex. To transfer from the monorailway station requires you to cross the Nu Sentral mall to reach the KL Sentral complex. The other monorailway station in this neighborhood is Tun Sambanthan station on the banks of the Klang River behind the shopping area of Brickfields.

The cheapest and arguably the less reliable option is the KTM Komuter service, with two lines passing through KL Sentral. Convenient to use if in the suburbs of Kuala Lumpur and from the western side of the Old city area at Bank Negara station and the moreish colonial-style old Kuala Lumpur station.

The Express Rail Link, with train services from Kuala Lumpur International Airport, has KLIA Ekspres and KLIA Transit services terminating at KL Sentral. Ekspres services run non-stop to KL Sentral whilst Transit services also stop at Salak Tinggi, Putrajaya/Cyberjaya and Bandar Tasik Selatan stations.

The MRT Sungai Buloh-Kajang Line which is the newest train system in Klang Valley has its stop in this neighborhood at SBK|15 Muzium Negara.

Mid Valley

The easiest way to get to Mid Valley is to catch a KTM Komuter train to KB|01 Mid Valley komuter station. The station is linked to the mall via a covered walkway with escalators. The other alternative is to catch an LRT to Bangsar station and transfer onto a Mid Valley free shuttle bus (which runs every half hour) or RapidKL bus No U87/U85/B105/B110 (which runs every 30-60 minutes during off-peak hours).

Muslim Friendly Hotels

Brickfields contains two extremes of lodging - sleazy hole-in-the+walls which only rent out rooms on an hourly basis (mostly in the old Brickfields area), and three of KL's best five-star hotels north of KL Sentral.

• Hotel Sentral - Nice and clean hotel with good online ratings.

• Hilton - This hotel which opened around 2005, is adjacent to the KL Sentral train station and the Le Meridien. The Hilton has rooms with open bathrooms and plasma TVs. Plenty of restaurants and an executive lounge on the 33rd floor. Furthermore there is a gym and maybe the most relaxing spa/pool complex of any hotel in KL. It is truly an oasis in the middle of chaos.

• Le Meridien - Adjacent to the KL Sentral train station. Opened in 2004, has a splendid lobby and modern rooms with views of the nearby gardens (or the roof of KL Sentral if you pick the wrong side). Shares spa and swimmingpool facilities with the Hilton next door.

• Aloft Kuala Lumpur Sentral - Consists of 482 rooms & suites, multiple meeting rooms, ballrooms, restaurants. It is a modern property 950 metres away from the Nu Sentral Mall.
