Classic Inn, a place you can call a HOME in Malaysia. Classic Inn brings you cordial, comfort, cleanliness, and economy. Classic Inn is strategically located in the centre of Kuala Lumpur, which is known as Golden Triangle. Classic Inn is located just opposite to the Berjaya Times Square, one of the biggest malls with indoor roller coaster and amusement park. Classic Inn is only a few steps away from monorail station, and it is also near to several shopping malls and the famous Bintang Walk, where there are pubs and disco clubs. Classic Inn is set on a traditional era of the 50's ambience when colonial influences of architectural design and lifestyle predominate. This Classic Inn is renovated in colonial look as it is a prewar building with a modern fire protection facility and CCTV surveillance. Most of the rooms have window and come with private bathroom equipped with high-pressure hot showers. We also offer a 5 star quality King Koil bed with individual-controlled Air-Cond, colour TV for local channels & IDD telephone. In the morning we prepare 'cultural' breakfast for our beloved guest. We also provide laundry service. Wifi & Internet connection is also available 24hr. We have a lovely garden for our guest to enjoy our warm Malaysian Climate to invigorate their mind and soul throughout the day. A BBQ stove also built at the garden so that you can enjoy a BBQ party with gang of friends here. No comfort is complete without cleanliness. The management of Classic Inn is very particular in tidiness and cleanliness. In this regard, our housekeeping is always conducted in similar fashion of a 5 star hotel accommodation. We are always happy that our guests feel that Classic Inn is their second home.

Great location, the place was right behind Times Square, and only 5 mins away from Imbi monorail station. Rooms aren't the biggest around, but the beds are comfy and clean, toilets spotless. No complaints for the cleanliness. Highly recommended

The beds are comfortable. Although our room was tiny, it was modern and spotless. Nice Roti pancakes for breakfast. It depends what you want from your stay...is this place value for money? The answer depends on how vital a private bathroom is to you. We also stayed next door at the Equator Hostel (also featured on this website) which is half the price but only has shared bathrooms.close

The housekeeping was excellent & buffet breakfast generous. I thought the location was perfect, being so close to Imbi monorail station (just enter Times Square shopping plaza and proceed to the ground floor level, then use the exit door to the parking station - you can see the Classic Inn across the road). I had a very enjoyable visit and definitely hope to return. Thanks Mdm Ong!close

....as far as budget accom. in KL goes, this is about as good as it gets! Really homely, really clean. Only down side is there's not a lot of traditional Malaysian culture or people at here. But if they maintain this level of service, it's top ranking.

Cheerful, friendly and helpful front-desk staff, ever-ready with tips and assistance when needed. Value for money accommodation with full breakfast of bread with butter and kaya and fruits, and beverage of your choice plus a local special. I especially like and is now craving for the excellent thin, crispy roti-pata (an Indian seared flat-bread usually with a curry gravy by the side, a favourite breakfast and all day dish with the Malaysians and Singaporeans). Thank you Mdm Wong for the personal attention and an excellent staff from the chamber maid to the front desk guys. Has already recommended to an Aussie couples I met in the monorail and will return soon. Thank you Mdm Wong, for your personal attention and making me feel at home away from home.
