Thistle Johor Bahru

City center of Johor Bahru Johor Bahru|2km from Taman Merdeka Musical Fountain
Room Number: 1128, 1129 Pros: - nice sea view - comfortable bed - separate bathtub and shower area - Huge pool (feels like a resort, with slide for children so very family friendly) - decent size gym - breakfast buffet had decent variety and taste (very value for money given cost of room) - staff were friendly and proactive Cons - Room shows serious signs of ageing. Even though could see that it was refurbished, things still look like they are falling apart - not sure if it’s just my room, but tv channels come and go. Sometimes it’s working and sometimes it’s not. Limited channels as well. - pillow was way too soft - My King size bed was actually two super single beds put together. - Only bath towels provided and it was very worn. No other towels provided. - Not really baby friendly as there hotel does not have baby shower tub. Thankfully room comes with a bath tub - sound insulation pretty bad. Could hear sounds from the corridor

First of all, the hotel is brand new. The hotel is very close to the JB city centre yet located in a very quiet surroundings. Secured indoor parking. The 2 Bedroom Suite is definitely worth every penny...extremely generous in space, a very functional kitchen, spacious dining area and living room. Would definitely come back with family & kids as they have a nice kids pool at level 5 with nice view of Johor straits & also Singapore!

Straits View Hotel JB

Danga Bay Johor Bahru|2.02km from Taman Merdeka Musical Fountain
The rooms are large and simple in interior but very clean. You can see the strait from your room, so you can relax. No toothbrush is provided. You can rent a hair dryer. The staff are very kind and polite. It seemed that time was flowing slowly and I was able to spend it comfortably. Since the reclamation work of the strait in front of the hotel has begun, I wonder if high-rise condominiums and shopping malls will be built and this view will change.

Olive Hotel

Larkin Johor Bahru|2.29km from Taman Merdeka Musical Fountain
As noted on reviews on other websites it is common to see tiny roaches in the rooms. I was hesitant to ask them to spray the room because I did not want to sleep with insect poison in the room. Reception staff is very friendly. The hotel is small, but noisy both day and night. It seems that you can hear everything that the staff and other guests say and do. Just a few minutes walk to Larkin and to many restaurants. Location is great. It is ok for a night or two. Downstairs is noisier, but very weak wifi upstairs

The staffs are helpful. The room was okay. The bed and the pillows were comfortable. There are free toiletries but no toothbrush. But for me it was acceptable. The hotel has a lot of parking spaces. The cleanliness of the shower area need to be improved.

with a fee of RM 42++ in line with today's prices.. a strategic location, the hotel is close to many facilities such as restaurants. the hotel is safe to occupy because the entrance has an access card. the facilities provided in the hotel are ok. there is a place to iron clothes, there is a water filter, there is a shower heater. the price of the room is in line with the price. I took a budget room only but it is comfortable even though the toilet is outside the room but the toilet is maintained clean and fragrant

Run by elderly couple. Actual place is older and more run down than pictures. But honestly for the price, it was acceptable. Slept like a baby. Recommend for non fussy solo people. Indian Briyani shop outside serves delicious tosai.

Easy to book, seamless check in/out process for one-night stay We stayed in the Executive King unit. Very spacious and well equipped amenities (kitchen with fridge and kettle), many electrical sockets. Especially love the bidet with wash, dry, and seat warmer features! It looks like the electrical sockets and bathroom have been renovated recently. However the wardrobes in the kitchen and bathroom aren't so clean on the insides. The soundproofing is not so good, so can hear people in the corridor, rain, and traffic on the motorway outside loudly. Ok if you're a heavy sleeper, but probably will not suit light sleepers looking to get a good rest. No comments on the rest of the hotel amenities, restaurant etc. as it was closed for renovation at the time of our stay. We enjoyed a quiet, easy walk on the road through Kampong Muhd Amin to the restaurants and cafes located along Jalan Kolam Ayer (near Kolam Ayer Mosque). Overall ok as a basic accommodation for short stay on a budget

More about Johor Bahru

Introduction to Johor

Johor, Malaysia's southernmost state, known for its vibrant cities, pristine nature, and unique cultural heritage. Just a causeway away from Singapore, Johor offers a rich tapestry of experiences, from exciting theme parks and historic sites to delectable local cuisine. As one of the fastest-growing states in Malaysia, Johor is a reflection of modern progression whilst preserving its cultural roots.

Tips about Travelling to Johor

Senai International Airport serves as the main gateway to Johor, with direct flights from various parts of Asia. For travellers from Singapore, the Causeway Link bus service offers a convenient way to cross the border.

Malaysia's official currency, the Ringgit, is used in Johor, with credit cards accepted in most establishments. Bahasa Malaysia is the official language, but English is widely spoken, particularly in urban and tourist areas.

Always check with the nearest Malaysian embassy or consulate for visa requirements. Many countries are granted visa-free entry for tourism purposes.

Johor is a predominantly Muslim state; thus, modest attire is recommended, particularly when visiting religious or cultural sites.

Popular Attractions in Johor

Johor is home to the famous Legoland Malaysia Resort, a must-visit for families. For a slice of history, the Johor Bahru Old Chinese Temple and Sultan Abu Bakar State Mosque offer a fascinating look into the state's diverse religious practices. Nature lovers will enjoy the beauty of Endau-Rompin National Park, while foodies should not miss exploring Johor Bahru's street food scene.

Weather and Best Time to Visit

Johor experiences a tropical rainforest climate, with temperatures ranging from 23°C to 32°C all year round. The monsoon season from November to February brings more rain, making the driest period from June to August the most favourable time to visit. Lightweight clothing, a raincoat or umbrella, and comfortable shoes are recommended for your visit.

Choosing the Right Hotel in Johor

Choosing a hotel in Johor depends on your needs. For proximity to attractions, consider staying at Legoland Malaysia Hotel. Food enthusiasts might prefer a stay at Amari Johor Bahru, situated near famous eateries.

To stay near the airport, consider Le Grandeur Palm Resort Johor. For a touch of luxury, the DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Johor Bahru offers upscale accommodation.
