Grab's the other option, but it involves getting a wifi connection at the airport then finding the Grab pick-up .... and it's a fixed fare set to match the taxis.
If you are in full cost saving mode the cheapest $4 way to get to your hotel is the train to Putrajaya where you switch to the metro line to Ampang Park - then a brisk 15 minute walk into the embassy district and the Samadhi. (OK, add on an extra couple of dollars and cab it from Ampang Park
)
No, it isn't about the dollars
I was merely inquiring about which will be faster/easier (since I arrive at 9a on a week day).

They offer an airport transfer for US$60, probably way more expensive than taking a taxi?
