NiCE Malaysia Singapore Express Bus (Plusliner)
Telephone: +65 2565755(Singapore) | 03 22721586(KL) 04 2277370(Penang)
NiCE 1 - Price: SG$49: Fourteen daily departures
(first one at 7.30am, last one at 9.30pm)
NiCE 2 - SG$55: Five daily departures (8.00am, 9.30am, 3.00pm, 5.00pm, 6.30pm) and additional one at 1.00pm from Fridays to Sundays.
Pick-up point: All pick-ups from Copthorne Orchid Hotel (214 Dunearn Road, Singapore) arrive at the Old Railway Station , Kuala Lumpur
Even at a premium price of S$49, the trip is more than value for your money. Boarding from Copthone Orchid hotel along Bukit Timah, the coach ride of about 5 hours takes you across the Second Link and along the N-S highway, only stopping by Ayer Keroh rest place for 15 mins to give your body a welcome stretch. The entire trip’s pampered with complimentary food, refreshments and movie onboard. The alighting point at the former KTM station is well connected to many parts of KL, a far cry from the usual Puduraya Bus Terminal with heavy traffic congestion and polluted fumes. For the best deal, buy single return tickets from both side to enjoy the savings, and consider forking out RM10 extra and upgrade to NICE 2 (semi-double deck), the only Business Class travel on the road.

Is NICE pick up and drop off at the times square and pasar rakyat too. Like to suggest whether the management of NICE Express would like to consider it.
Dont quite understand NICE 2 with SD55 and Premium SD49. Is NICE EXPRESS goes to Johor Bahru beside Singapore?.
Thank you.
You can drop off at the Malaysia Immigration, it is city area. Just beside the KTM station / City sq shopping center.
It is a good opportunity for NICE Bus to advertise on their good satety records since its inception. Nowadays passenger prefered safety than to speedy. All the Best!!
Would like to know whether u have direct bus to Hatyai from KL
How to book a ticket ? your phoneline is not working. get through from Telecom, your line still not working(03-22723634,03-22721586). Aeroline can easily book on line ???
Wah! Even has tv on every single seat!
Can i know where is the pick up point should i wish to drop off at Copthorne Orchid Hotel ?
I recently planned a trip back to Penang from KL on 21 December, Friday.
Thinking of paying a bit extra for a Super VIP bus, i.e. to avoid the crowd at Pudu, and to have a bus which would stick to the departing schedule, I have chosen the seemed-to-be promising Bus services which depart from Old Railway station, for the first time, and I vowed that it would be the last time too.
I paid RM58 for a 815pm ticket. I reached at 730pm, and waited patiently and optimistically for my ride. However, there was no bus in sight until 9pm. There was no explanation given by the guy at the counter of the waiting area, but I found out from one of the ladies there that the scheduled bus at 815pm is postponed and combined with 9pm ride.
At 905pm, upon boarding the bus, I personally asked the in-charge person at the bus door that if I could still sit at my designated seat? And he confirmed with a loud ‘yes’. Soon enough, we were in the situation of having 2 persons with the same seat numbers. When confronted the in-charge again, he just shrugged and said “this is a 9pm bus, whoever is with the 815pm has to go down the bus and wait til the 9pm passengers settled down, and whatever seats left would be yours(the 815pm passengers). What is the rationale of prioritizing the 9pm passengers when the 815pm passengers have been waiting since 7 plus? One lady was not happy with the treatment and wanted her money back. To my surprise, the in charge just shrugged it off and told the lady to get off the bus.
Honestly, by paying a RM58 per ticket (the most expensive among all others), I would expect a certain level of commitment in delivery of services. But this company has failed me and others. Please consider taking other buses (cheaper but much better services).
“NICE” sepatutnya yang cantik,,,,tapi nice yg ada ni failed..memalukan tolong la dato’ turun la padang tengok la so sad..makanan lagi-lagi roti,roti, dengan air kotak yang rasenya meloyakan tu,,,,ermmm,,,,, wake-up la,,,,,perkhimatan failed
kami pelanggan…ada hak nak pilih lain company kalau terus macam ni tak ke mana la “hidup segan mati tak mau jer lah”,,,,wassalam,,,
Wah! I just thot of taking this brand bus “NICE” in front of the old KTM Railway Station from KL to Penang on 1 Jan 2008. When I stayed at the Heritage Station Hotel on 14 Dec 2007, I even saw some of the buses look modern and nice, never expect that someone did comment recently on the state of the bus. What a shame!!!
We arrd @KL 7pm and booked a tix to spore for 8 Jan 2008 since there was NO 3pm bus we booked 3 tixs for 4pm departure on 8 Jan, after visiting our sick ailing relative in ICU we rushed to NICE bus station and to our shock it reflected “re-timed to 5pm” and saw a few unhappy customers complaining when checked with the staff told us to wait, when up and heard another story at 1 booking clerk saying the 4pm bus fully booked when told him i had the tixs for the 4pm, story changed that the bus fm spore broke down so our bus was delayed, told her that they had to find alternative plans and checked with her there were 3 buses parked outside and she claimed 2 buses were heading for penang which i found quite baffling and then a sincere honese clerk said due to insufficient pax they are trying to combine which infuriated me and requested to see the duty manager was told to wait, meantime other paxs starting making noise and all of a sudden we were told the bus 4057 is heading for spore @4pm the same bus that was suppose to depart from penang.
Slogan claims “reliable” but what an unpleasant incident that occured today, if we had juz kept quiet and swallowed what your staff claimed we would have been shortchanged and wasted an hour why put us thru such a trauma.We travelled from Spore to KL with only 3 passengers without a fuss on NICE bus. Please help to investigate and keep us posted before the image of NICE is tarnished.
that’s right, nice is extremely unreliable, their phone lines never work and when it does, nobody picks up. i also experienced the exact same thing as acps and ck, traveling from kl to singapore… the real funny thing is, when i bought my ticket i was told that it was fully sold out and i was the last passenger etc etc. on the day itself only 6 people were there and they moved half of us into the next bus and they other half had to wait for the one after that, which was 2 hours later than the bus we were supposed to be on! to me that’s absolutely absurd, if you can’t deliver, just say so, give us our money back and we’ll go somewhere else.
on my return trip from singapore to kl i took aeroline instead and it was a world of a difference! it left on time, booking was fuss free, the service was good and the driver and his assistant were extremely helpful with passengers bags and etc at immigration. i highly recommend aeroline as an alternative to those wishing to travel from kl to singapore, vice versa and i heard they recently started a kl to penang service as well, not sure if it’s frequent though…
We have travelled with the Nice 2 bus service perhaps 6 times now. KL to Singapore and return and similarly from KL to Penang return. Coming from Perth, Australia we found the service and trips to be very comfortable (the highways in Malaysia are exceptional!). Admittedly, the booking of the tickets can be quite frustrating and booking by phone is NOT recommended. On the whole though, the trips we relaxing and for us, quite punctual. We would certainly recommend the Nice 2 service.
Wah, I canno belief so many gud review of Nice bus one. Two week ago I book the 2pm bus from Singapore to Kul. When I arrive at 1.20 @ copthorne i see a Nice, and its almost empty! only 5 passenger leh! so i ask the auntie at the counter if i can go on the 1.30, she say no, is full. 5 min later, the bus leave, with only 5 passenger! i so insulted. you call service?! so then i wait for my 2pm bus one, then delay! they tell me, the bus i have to get on, is late from KL. But there were 2 bus waiting at Copthorne! why they no use one?!
Also, the phoneline in malaysia is not working! how to contact for info!? I recommend to other passnger, 2 use teh other service, such as aeroline.
I strongly urge Nice Management to provide qualtity food as refreshments. The last trip I travelled from Penang to Kl in the morning bus, turkey sandwich was stale. I informed the hostess, her reply was that it was still within the expiry date.
I believe all passengers did not consume this meal,after opening the package.
Please serve fresh and quality food. We paid for the meal, it is not FREE.
I’m looking for double decker bus ….anyone can give me the contact …company travel 2 days 1 night from KL to East cost ….also want to know the charges…
Apala kena dengan perkhidmatan NICE nie,… banyak kali call tapi asyik engage aje… Bila dapat line tak ada orang pula jawap….. gerammnya…
With so many many bus operators coming along the way, NICE buses should improve on their service standard. Its been a while I took this bus from Singapore to KL and plan to try again for my next trip to KL. After reading all these comments, I may not want to try at all.
I am thinking of taking NICE bus to KL and drop off at the old railway station so I called NICE EXPRESS yesterday. The phone line either is not working or they never pick up the call.
After serveral times of calling, a lady finally answer the phone. She speaks so fast and wanted to put down the phone as if she is very busy. When ask about the working hours, she told me that the working hours is from 7am to 9pm ,open daily.
That evening I meet my sister and we wanted to go down to Copthorne Orchid Hotel for booking but we are not not sure of the location so I decide to call NICE again at around 7pm and again nobody pick up the phone. I tried serveral times but still nobody picks up the phone. I thought their working hours is from 7am to 9pm ???
What is the staff at NICE doing ?
I started to wonder it NICE Coach really reliable and I have doubt in their service.
I don’t think I want to take this coach after reading all the comments above.
I would like to share my sincerely feedback with u, NICE. I love to travel to malaysia with NICE. The Employees are all very warm friendly and really helpful. Bus features are really NICE, where we have space to relax on our seats and accomodate less passsengers (consume less time to clear @ the 2 immigration) and considered just perfect. BUT, ITS UNWELL FUNCTIONING OF THE TVs, MAKE THE LONG TRIP VERY BORING! Schedules are perfect too, I could just hop the bus whenever I needed them, its always on available seats. Pricing SLIGHT HIGH with the undelicious and inappropriate meal! I REMEMBER WAS SERVED WITH A MCd MEAL OR FRIED MEE - THAT WAS LONG TIME AGO. Sales Counter are NICE over the counter, but never get response whenever I make a phone call! Somehow, not all are not perfect. I salute to your services, where we could do booking in advance, change the date within the period time and earn points if we are a member and could redeem a ticket at later stage; which I could not found in other services. I hope NICE could look into this teething problems and come out with a better service, since now there are alot arising competition services. You could add on new service time, but your service meal also should be better, where you could attract more passengers to your services. Then its really nice to be called NICE all the time.
I have been trying to get information about my 1st trip to Alor Star from KL.
The website: Nice, does not work and the Plusliner website is not up todate.
There is no bus from KL to Alor Star. Looked at the map and it shows Kulim as being closer than Sungai Petani - to Alor Star. Not so, if you look at a real map…..
Kulim is about the same distance from Butterworth to Alor Star. Anyway, tried ringing and all I get is a dead tone or no tone on all 3 lines and then finally, after a day trying, I get a recorded message to ring 03-2272-1586. Tried that and no one wants to answer the phone. Twice it rang out on me. Very frustrating!
Nice does not seem to be as nice. Will look at other companies - Aeroline seems to be good - to those who commented earlier, thanks for the feedback.
