2-Star Hotels in Ipoh

It was clean and safe. Bed is clean, shower is clean, common area is clean. Just a couple things: 1) wish the compound was smoke/cigarette-free (it was a middle aged local man who smoked in the area next to the pantry, looks like one of you idk); 2) don’t expect to go to bed early 😂 you can go to bed early but theres a bar below so you hear the music, and I was in the female dorm on level 1, lotsa noise coming from the floors above. However, people generally go quiet after, I think the bar closes? Which is 1am. Not sure, I went to bed around 10pm and was in and out of sleep. Overall the place is great.

I love the interior and the colour .So clean and nice. Lovely.close to town area. The gym dont have air condition but using fans .Pool was good. .Easy to access

Cleanliness was below expectations as the bedsheets had stains. The location is good and convenient, close to the city area. Service was acceptable, but it was inconvenient that the hairdryer was not prepared in the room and had to be collected from the front desk. Amenities were decent with basic facilities provided, but it would be better if a refrigerator was included, in pantry also can but no. Overall, an average stay.

We travelled in a group of 3 female friends. I have to say I booked this place due to its industrial themed rooms. It's definitely nostalgic and rustic but the cleanliness is still very much up to standard. We even had a balcony and managed to catch a glimpse of fireworks in a distance. In the morning, we caught the sunrise as well. It's beautiful. The location is best! 👍🏼 it's just next to the famous Thean Chun Coffeeshop, where you get to eat shredded chicken noodles, popiah, asam laksa, Satay, char kway teow. Will definitely recommend this place to others. The only one thing is u will need a little patience when it comes to service. The staff left us standing aimlessly where she went up to the room.

Bed is very big, comfortable for 4 person family, aircond is cold, opposite aeon shopping mall

The hotel has a great location as it’s situated in Little India, making it very convenient for food, shopping, and transportation. The price is also quite affordable for the area. The staff were friendly and helpful, especially by allowing us to store our luggage after check-out. However, the downside is that the room is not very soundproof. We could hear other travellers talking and walking along the corridors during midnight, which was quite noisy. Another issue was that if the air-conditioning was turned off, there would be an unpleasant smell in the room. Overall, still a decent stay for the price and location, but the noise insulation and room ventilation could be improved.

Room 211. The parking in front of the hotel for cars and motorcycles is well-lit. I hope the basement parking's lighting can be upgraded to LEDs; it's currently quite dark and doesn't feel safe for solo women, especially when returning late at night, as there are many Bangladeshi workers around. The front desk feels more like an old-style guesthouse counter, with no proper lobby. Staff are okay. There's a RM50 deposit per room, but no record is kept; it's essentially a 'barter' system where you exchange the deposit for the TV and air-conditioner remotes. The lift works well for accessing the second and third floors. The hotel has been newly renovated and repainted, both exterior and interior. The walls and rooms are clean and freshly painted, the floors are clean, and there's hot and cold Coway filtered water available. An ironing board is provided outside the room. Inside the room, the pillows, mattress, sheets, sofa, and wardrobe are all new. The room itself is freshly painted, clean, and feels fresh. The floor is clean. The bathroom is also new and clean, with only slight signs of age on the wall tiles. There's a view of houses and a small hill. The hotel is located within 1-3 km of Ipoh city center. Being in a residential area, there are no eateries or convenience stores nearby. So, you'll need to order Foodpanda for food and Grab for transport, though it's only a 5-minute ride to town. The Panasonic air-conditioner, despite being new, cools very slowly; it took almost 3 hours to cool even half the room. I hope this can be fixed. I'm not sure if all rooms experience the same issue. The room is comfortable to stay in, though it's not soundproof. However, it's comfortable for sleeping. The hot water for showering is good. Excellent pest control. The door lock uses a sturdy access card. The TV channels are terrible and fuzzy; I hope they can install MyTV. Overall, the room is completely new, but I hope they fix the slow air-conditioning, improve the TV channels with MyTV, and upgrade the parking lights to LEDs. The front desk staff at Hotel Pinji should be more cheerful. I'm not sure if the Wi-Fi works well, but there is a password provided. If these issues are addressed, Hotel Pinji would undoubtedly be Ipoh's best budget hotel for various groups: bus tours, students, wedding guests, families visiting university/college/school students (especially when dorms are full), out-of-town workers, businessmen, local and international tourists, and bikers. Gym access costs RM6 for hotel guests. The room price is reasonable.

The location is strategic just near Ipoh Night Market, Aeon & McD , but the cleanliness not satisfied and the tv channel is limited but is quite good especially the staff was so friendly 👍🏻

I felt that this is the worst hotel i’ve ever been. I paid RM100 for such a small room. Not functioning aircond. The aircond keep on off after 30 mins or so. And I need to turn it on everytime. I was already so tired travelling from Selangor to Perak. Too tired to wake up from the bed and need to face such problem. The hotel services crew should have check every room air-conditioning function before sell it out to customer. I would have go to cheaper hotel with better environment and space. Just the receiptionist has been treat us well. Price wise, it doesn’t worth every penny. Uncomfortable room. And hear knocking on the wall from different room. And i can hear people outside talking. The location of the hotel is okay. Nearby to some tourist attraction spot. I hope the owner can compensate us for such uncomfortable stay. We sleep in sweat! Keep on waking up. The only reason we people want to stay hotel is to sleep comfortably and rest peacefully. And I couldn’t get both from this hotel. 😭😭😭😭😭😭

The room was clean and the aircond was very cool. Nice , love it 💋
