  • Location: Rating of 4.3 out of 5

    "I only have some reservations about the security of the area in general - all of the hostels/guesthouses on the street had padlocks on their gates which instantly makes you ask questions, not least because you have to attract attention from outside in order to have someone come and let you in." source Hostelworld

    "The staff are friendly and the location makes it walking distance to most places around the city. The area can look a little grubby but that is just part of KL." source Hostelworld

    "got bitten about 100 times very itchy and sore room tired needs repainting lounge area nice." source Hostelworld

    "This is more than made up for by the convenient location and wonderful staff." source Hostelworld

What some of our guests have said!'What can I say, this is my perfect home from home. You feel like you are staying with friends, I was only supposed to stay 2 days and ended up staying 2 weeks and coming back again, that has to say it all.'Carol, UKJust wonderful, nice, easy would be the best word. Just steady, friendly, familiar. The games of cards and the wide selection of movies and breakfast for the making even for pathetically late risers like myself. I've searched my mind and come up with no complaints and plenty of superlatives.'Simon, San Francisco, USA'Where to start? Travelers Palm is, beyond any questioning, the best place we stayed during our five weeks in Malaysia. Not so much because of the very central location, or the clean rooms, hot shower and abundance of free coffee, tea and mosquito spray. Much more was it the great and welcoming atmosphere, that made you feel a bit like home.'Tea&Simon, DenmarkThe travellers palm is an awesome place to stay. Suzy is up there with the most friendly people you will ever meet. I reccomend The Travellers Palm to anyone visiting KL, whether for a night or a month.Jeff Ozog, AustraliaI had an overnight stopover in KL and booked Travellers Palm off the website.I arrived late and was a bit worried my room would be gone. Suzy was there to welcome me by name and show me the room which was what I expected in a basic hostel, outside bathroom but beautiful clean towels air con and big bed. Suzy works very hard to make the hostel as welcoming as any I have stayed in anywhere in the world.She encourages guests to chat and share experiences in a delightful outside courtyard. My plane left at midnight the following night so after a day of looking at KL I returned to pick up my luggage and Suzy told me my room was not taken yet so I could use it (free) and shower and change. when I was ready to leave she told me as it was the end of Ramadan she was cooking for everyone but I was leaving early so she had prepared a meal for me specially. These sort of experiences where you feel like a friend not a customer are priceless when traveling and make this probably the best hostel experience of my life. -Bill-Australia.SIMPLE BREAKFAST 7am - 11amHOT/COLD WATER DISPENCER 24hrsAIR-CON ROOMS 8pm - 8amTOWELS provided without extra chargesHOT/COLD SHOWER 24hrsLINEN provided without extra chargesLUGGAGE STORAGE Rm2/daySAFETY LOCKERS Rm2/dayTRAVEL INFO 9am-9pmAIRPORT PICK-UP (chargeable) to notify 24hrs before.LAUNDRY SERVICE Rm10/load of 5kgReception Operation hour - 0900am to 0200amCheck in time - 1300hrs Guests may arrive earlier(after 9am) and leave their luggage at the hostel but access to rooms will not be granted until after 1300hrs.Checkout time - 1200Noon or a full rate will be applied.Guests are expected to check-in within 4hours of their flight/bus/train or other mode of transportation of their ETA(estimate time arrival).
