Hostels in Pahang, Malaysia

Decent size bed a bit hard but clean. Had to rent a towel for 5RMB and not good quality. Decent shower pressure. Good location close to bus station. Don’t rent motorbike here you can find cheaper elsewhere and for better rates.

I was very satisfied with my stay at Tanjung Inn Cherating. The location is excellent, with plenty of cafés and shops within walking distance, and the property connects directly to the beach. The only downside is that the hotel is on higher ground, so getting to the beach means walking up and down a sandy path without proper stairs. Service was generally good, and I found WhatsApp to be the fastest way to reach staff — when I reported a plumbing issue, it was fixed immediately after I texted. Amenities are thoughtful, like the mosquito repellent provided in the room, though the water dispenser was broken and housekeeping doesn’t clean daily or replenish water unless requested. Despite these small inconveniences, the atmosphere is peaceful, the surroundings are charming, and it feels like a great place to slow down and enjoy Cherating. Overall, it was a pleasant stay, and I would happily return.

The soundproofing is quite poor, and noise from outside can be easily heard, which made it difficult to sleep. The bathroom door also felt somewhat lacking in privacy and security, as silhouettes can be seen through it. The listing stated that air conditioning was provided, but in reality there was none. Instead, there was only a small fan beside the bed. The fan speed could not be adjusted, it could only oscillate up and down, and the cable tended to come loose and required readjustment. Showering was a little uncomfortable because the floor drain was located directly beneath the showerhead. There was also an unpleasant odor in the room. The host may wish to consider providing an air freshener to improve the overall experience

Honest review: I think this place is worth the money if you aren't so spoilt for hotel stays or resorts where you pay the money for the experience of the stay. Instead here you pay for the stay and to sleep; that's it. There's everything you need for you to get by to stay for the night/s you stay.  I stayed for one day here and only came back to the hotel at night and slept. Some guests complained the bed is overall a little thin as well as the pillow but I didn't notice any issues with this and was able to sleep well snd feel refreshed in the morning. The toilet and shower facilities are good although you need to bring your own toiletries. Overall would definitely book this place and come back to cameron highlands again!

Although the building is old and looks a bit rundown from the outside, the interior is clean and comfortable. The front desk staff are very friendly, and there's a KK Mart and a few Indian shops on the ground floor. It's about a 10-minute drive to Genting Resort, and a Grab taxi costs less than RM10 during off-peak hours, usually around RM15. The view is expansive, the air is fresh, and it's not stuffy.

The overall stay was pleasant, but there were a few issues. Unfortunately, the unit next door was undergoing renovation, which was quite disruptive to my rest. Additionally, the laundry detergent scent on the bedsheets was a bit overwhelming, and the water heater wasn't getting hot enough. Other than these points, everything else was fine.

for simple stay is ok…. Dust alot… need to inprove…. Others ok….

Had a comfortable sleep, and there was a cheap and worthwhile motorbike rental available. Will definitely come back again!

The hostel is good for a short getaway, suitable for a group of friends who want to have bonding sessions. Location is okay. Only basic amenities provided. No towel, no shampoo at the upper floor toilet.

Very good location, that you can have your meal settled after hiking directly at the hotel. The boss very helpful that helps us arrange the trip well.
