Getting there
From central Kuala Lumpur, walk about 10 minutes to Raja Chulan Monorail station. Ride three stops to Hang Tuah station, which sits next to Bukit Bintang City Centre. On foot the trip from the central area takes about 20 minutes through Bukit Bintang. A Grab ride takes 5 to 10 minutes, longer at rush hour.
Where to stay
Cormar Suites Kuala Lumpur makes a central base for SeaShorts Film Festival 2026: After Image. The newly renovated 4-star hotel is about 15 minutes’ walk from the Petronas Twin Towers, with Bukit Bintang’s food streets close by. Its studio, one-bedroom and two-bedroom suites are larger than a standard hotel room, with comfortable beds, a full kitchenette and a bathtub, and there is a rooftop pool and Parry Road Cafe downstairs for breakfast before the event.
How to get there from the city centre, what is nearby and the full event details are on the SeaShorts Film Festival 2026: After Image guide. Event dates fill hotels fast: book direct with Cormar Suites for the best available rate, and confirm times and entry rules with the organiser before you go.
