Dear Friends,
Have a question? Below are some of the most frequently asked questions
that we receive and our responses. If you have a question that's
not covered please, by all means, drop us an e-mail
and we'll be happy to answer.
Thank you.
Is the Rate Quoted per
Room or per Person?
All rates are quoted on a per room basis with two persons occupying
the room.
We wrote to KualaLumpurHotels.com
but have not received a reply. Why?
We do our best to reply to all legitimate e-mail inquiries within
an hour or so. However, if you have not received a reply it is more
than likely due to one of the following causes :
- Incorrect E-mail Address: More often than not,
the e-mail address that was provided to us was not correct. Please
check that your e-mail address is correct and resend.
- Incorrect Date: We sort e-mail by date and if
the date on your e-mail server or computer is wrong we may not be
aware that you have sent us an e-mail.
- Not Received: Not often, but every once in a
while we simply do not receive your e-mail
- Other: Some e-mail servers, most notably AOL
and Earthlink have spam filters in place that do not deliver "unauthorised"
e-mail without prior approval - please check and make sure that
your e-mail server will accept e-mail from stay@kualalumpurhotels.com.
And finally, without a confirmed reservation, we do not provide
contact details for any hotel and ignore such requests.
How does the reservation system
work with KualaLumpurHotels.com?
First, after you have found a hotel to your liking, click on the
reservation form fill in all the blank
fields and submit. KualaLumpurHotels.com's
reservation staff will check with your requested hotel for availability.
If room/(s) is/(are) available we will advise you, via e-mail, that
a booking has been made in your name. Likewise, if no room is available
we will advise you of that and suggest alternative accommodations.
All hotels require a deposit or credit card to confirm the booking
(to cut down on bogus reservations). We do not 'bait and
switch' - hotels that are fully booked are posted in advance
(click
here to view).
As such in order to confirm your booking you will need to forward
your
credit card information within 48 hours - We will provide
you with the location of our secure server or, if you prefer, you
may e-mail or fax this information to our office. If we do not receive
your credit card details within 48 hours, the reservation is canceled.
Please be advised that KualaLumpurHotels.com
will not charge any amount to your credit
card. We only pass this information onto the hotel. Once we have
the credit card information we will e-mail to you the hotel's confirmation
number or code.
At that time you are subject to the hotel's cancellation policy
(usually 48 hours prior to arrival or one night's stay is charged
to your account by the hotel). However each hotel
has its own cancellation policy, which is posted on the hotel's
reservation form. Read this information carefully.
If you have any changes to your booking you must advise us accordingly.
We confirm all cancellations with the hotels.
All rates are in Malaysian
Ringgit. Can you quote in other currency?
Sorry, no. The rates are quoted by the hotels and, for any number
of reasons, are in Malaysian Ringgit - it is not up to KualaLumpur
Hotels.com.
Some hotels are 'Preferred
Hotels' - what does this mean?
Since starting KualaLumpurHotels.com in 2000, we have made countless
site inspections at hotels all throughout Kuala Lumpur We have conducted
quarterly rate surveys and have received a fair amount of feedback
from our clients - so much so - that we feel confident in pointing
out which hotels provide the most value for money in any given price
range.
Preferred hotels are those hotels where the management has, over
the years, demonstrated an effort to offer superior value for money
in terms of facilities, customer service, friendliness and cleanliness.
What about my privacy, what
do you do with the information you collect?
We value your privacy as much as we treasure ours.
When we contact a hotel to confirm a booking we only provide to
the hotel that information which the hotel would normally obtain
during check-in or registration. We do not use any of the information
you have given us for any other purposes nor do we sell, rent or
give your information to any 3rd parties. We never have and we have
no plans to do so. For more information please click
here
Do I need a visa to travel
to Malaysia?
For many countries yes. For more information please click
here.
However things have a way of changing and it is best to get more
complete, up to date information at the nearest Malaysian Embassy.
Is there any fee to cancel
a reservation made with KualaLumpurHotels .com?
No. As long as you abide by the hotel's cancellation policy (usually
24 to 72 hours advance notice; fyi, each hotel's policy is different
and the hotel's policy will be written on the hotel's reservation
page) there is never a fee to change or cancel your reservation
with KualaLumpurHotels.com.
Can you help me change reservations
I made with another company?
Sorry, no. Inasmuch as we cannot verify the authenticity of the
requesting party we cannot take responsibility to forward any commercial
communications whatsoever. You will need to contact the travel agent,
hotel or reservation service that made the reservation in the first
place. |

Just what is the #1 FAQ ?
Q. We work for XYZ
Airline or ABC Travel Agency - can we get an airline or travel agency
discount ?
A. In most cases hotels will give a discount for
airline employees - the amount of the discount varies from hotel
to hotel but it is important to know that the discount is based
on the hotel's published rate.
As such in most cases the airline discount will most likely be less
than KualaLumpur Hotels.com's special discount rates - (read you
will probably pay more). That said, since we have no way of verifying
who works for what airline we are not able to process airline discount
requests. You will need to apply for your discount when checking
in.
Regarding travel agent discounts - If you really do work for a travel
agency you certainly don't need KualaLumpur Hotels.com to apply
for a travel agent discount. |
