Kuala Pilah (Negeri Sembilan Malay: Kolo Pilah), or simply Pilah, is a town in Kuala Pilah District, Negeri Sembilan, Malaysia. It is 36 km from the state capital Seremban and 101 km from Kuala Lumpur.

Kuala Pilah is stuated at the upstream section of the Muar River on the eastern slopes of the Titiwangsa Mountains. It is an old valley town with many of the prewar Chinese shophouses still fronting the main streets surrounded by traditional Malay kampung houses built on stilts nestled among extensive rice fields. It has a sizeable Chinese community that has existed since the mining days during the early British rule. This community today engages in trading and providing essential services such as workshops, hairdressing and traditional coffee shops called kopitiams.

The town is especially busy on weekends due to the flood of folks returning from Kuala Lumpur, usually to visit their parents or to tend to their family plots, where around the area is mostly Malays that migrated to Kuala Lumpur in search of better prospects and 'the bright lights'. The town is quite empty at night as most of the shops close as early as 7 p.m. daily. But early mornings are busy as workers and residents were staying nearby going to work at government offices such as hospitals, district offices and schools.

There are not many food stalls around, most are limited to the junction between Kuala Pilah and Bahau. The town used to have a movie theatre, but it was closed due to the introduction of video and internet cafes that sprouted during the 1990s. Those internet cafes are still going strong today.

The town is where one can also find the old Kuala Pilah Rest House, which was built by the government during the British occupation. In the early years, rest houses were the only available hotels and where everyone from businessmen to travellers stayed. It still serves this purpose today, albeit in a diminished capacity due to the availability of alternative accommodations.

Currently, P129 Kuala Pilah is represented in the Dewan Rakyat of the Malaysian Parliament by Dato' Haji Adnan Abu Hassan of UMNO, a component party of Barisan Nasional, which forms a major portion of the current government coalition.

In turn, Kuala Pilah provides five seats to the Negeri Sembilan State Legislative Assembly, namely:

Four state seats are currently held by UMNO save for downtown Kuala Pilah, which is held by PKR.
