Quick question for the Malaysia regulars — has anything changed in the last few months?

I was there in 2024 and had a great time but I've heard things are quieter than usual.

Worth going back or should I try somewhere new?

Cheers

Adding my experience from last month.

The scene has changed a bit since pre-COVID. Biggest change: more competition.

This is outdated info IMO. Things have changed since the pandemic. Current prices are about the same than what's described here.

Any restaurant recs for the daytime?

With respect, my experience was more mixed. But maybe I went at the wrong time.

Quick question — how was the hotel security?

Good info. I'd add that going during the week is much better — less crowded, better prices.

Not sure I agree about that area. I found the outskirts to be better value.

I'd also recommend downloading Grab before you go. Essential.

What was your total spend roughly? Trying to budget for mine.

Interesting take but I think you overpaid. Try going midweek next time.

This matches my experience. Malaysia is one of my favorites.
