Matahari Lodge

Centrally located in the hub of activities of Kuala Lumpur. Private rooms only, for a quiet night's sleep. No dorms, so you do not have to put up with snoring strangers. Ideal if you are on transit or have little time to spend in KL.

Close to attractions like Central Market(across the street!), Hindu and Chinese temples, Little India, Masjid Jamek etc. Puduraya bus terminal (for intercity bus) is 15 mins walk away. Catch the KL hop-on hop-off in front of the hostel for a city tour.

Clean and comfortable rooms (all shared toilets), perfect for that much needed privacy. Meet other travelers for some tips in our TV and reading lounge. Enjoy your morning free coffee and toasts in the outdoor balcony garden or the pantry. CCTV monitored premises for your safety.
