Romantic Hotels in Johor, Malaysia

My wife and I had a wonderful stay at St. Giles Southkey Hotel. From check-in to check-out, everything was smooth and pleasant. The room was clean, comfortable, and well maintained, with a lovely atmosphere that made our stay relaxing and memorable. The staff were friendly and helpful, and the location is very convenient. It was truly a great experience for us as a couple. We will definitely come back again.

This is my 5th time staying in R&F and 5 different units. So far all the units are neat and clean. At times TV remote is not working but the maintenance side came very fast to change a new remote. I like it here because can find food easily downstairs. Also walking distance to City Square shopping mall. There is also a shuttle bus that brings us to the custom.

The stay was ok. Our 2nd time staying at this hotel. Except there is this 2 separation of tower 1 and tower 2. Tower 2 is abit far me. I didn't book hotel w breakfast. So we tried the buffet breakfast on our last day. Which is delicious! Just a few things to complain. Room is close to the water heating fan thing. It gets noisy. If other ppl were to use the toilet. We can hear the toilet pipe running, which is loud too. Aircon cannot self adjust. It only regulates when the room gets abit warm. Ofcz the room qr code gives an option to get someone to come n service. But personally I feel is inconvenient, especially when it happens at night. The first time we enter the room. I smell cigarette in the bathroom but very faint. If given an option to come stay again. Choose a room from tower 1. I cannot walk far.

I and my hubby stayed at 16 floor, sea view and city view. Nice view from my room. Everything is good. Except :  there is no power point at coffee service table. I have to bring the kettle to another power point to boil the water for coffee.  Air-conditioning has abit of noise when comes to low temperature and fan power. Could have bathrobe would be better.  Private bathroom, the glass door is not tight enough when close . Water will flow out and the whole toilet is “ flooded “.  There is no bathroom tissues. If provides would be very nice. No face towel, if can provide will be perfect .  Coffee bag is nice when make with half cup of water.  Staffs are very helpful and friendly.  Will come again if going JB. And I also recommend to my friends and relatives once I came back SG.  Hopefully, what I have mentioned above, next trip will see the difference.

Stayed at Holiday Villa Johor Bahru for a short visit. The room itself was acceptable and reasonably comfortable, though the carpet felt rather worn and could benefit from a deeper clean. The view from the room was pleasant and a definite highlight. Breakfast was very crowded during peak hours; however, the team did a commendable job replenishing the buffet swiftly. That said, the overall taste and selection were fairly average. It would be much appreciated if brewed coffee from a proper coffee machine were available instead of coffee from an urn. The hotel’s location is excellent and highly convenient, which remains its strongest advantage. Special mention to Khan and Sazzad for their excellent hospitality at the Reception.

I chose Opero Hotel Southkey for my recent trip to Johor Bahru, and I was very satisfied with the overall experience. It's a hotel with excellent value for money. 📍 The location is incredibly convenient: The hotel is right next to Mid Valley Southkey Mall, just a few minutes' walk downstairs. Eating, shopping, and buying things are completely hassle-free, making it perfect for short trips or weekend getaways. 🛏️ Room Experience: The room was clean, with a simple and modern design. The bed was very comfortable, and the soundproofing was good, so it was quiet at night. The bathroom had stable water pressure and plenty of hot water. The overall maintenance was excellent; it didn't feel like an old hotel at all. 🍽️ Full Marks for Lifestyle Convenience: * The mall offers a huge variety (restaurants, cafes, supermarkets, massage, beauty products – you name it). * It's super convenient for late-night snacks, coffee, or buying daily necessities. * No need to take a special taxi to the city center; you can still have a great time. 🚗 Transportation & Getting Around: * From Singapore, you can take a Grab directly after clearing CIQ. * The hotel has parking spaces, so it's convenient if you're driving. * Taking a taxi to the city center, KSL, or City Square is also a short ride. 💬 Service Experience: The front desk staff were friendly, and both check-in and check-out were smooth. Responses to questions were quick, which was reassuring. ✨ In summary: If you're looking for a clean, quiet, super convenient hotel near a mall in Johor Bahru, you really can't go wrong with Opero Hotel Southkey. The breakfast was delicious too. It's suitable for couples, friends, or short weekend stays. I'd definitely stay here again on my next visit to JB 👍

The environment here is beautiful, it's just a shame the swimming pool upstairs is a bit damaged. If that could be fixed, it would be absolutely perfect. The security is also very professional, with security guards patrolling 24 hours a day.

Sparkly clean and spacious room, the service crews are very attentive and friendly too. The bed was very comfortable as well. The only downside is the noise from the construction beside, it doesn't seem to end and it's obvious from our room.

Okay, Fives is definitely not a five-star hotel, but honestly, the location, price, and staff more than make up for it. Pros: Price is shiok — especially if you book a few weeks in advance. Your wallet confirm happy. Location solid — Yes, it’s a few hundred metres further than the big-name hotels, but still right opposite Komtar JBCC. Just cross the road and you’re there lor. Staff all very steady — Always cheerful and polite. Stayed here more than three times already, and every time feels like coming home (minus the nagging from mum). Facilities okay one — No pool, but got a big, comfy lobby where you can nua while waiting for your Grab. Best part? Got a huge convenience store inside the lobby that opens till 2am. Supper crisis solved lah. Cons: No pool lor. So if you wanna float around in a bikini, go somewhere else. Never tried the breakfast spread, so cannot comment. Maybe nice, maybe meh. Other notes: Rooms are small-small one, and while they look clean, maybe don’t go CSI mode and inspect too closely. Not a dealbreaker though — just manage your expectations. Verdict: If you’re in JB for one or two nights, and you just want a good location, great price, and no-frills stay, this one is perfect.

Our second stay in this hotel after 1.5 years. The hotel is still well maintained. The front desk staff were friendly and helpful. They will greet you every time when you pass by. The room has a sofa which you can request for extra bedsheet, blanket and pillow for a child to sleep so it is perfect for a family of 3. They provide basic amenities. Food varieties also reasonable and I saw some improvement. This time they invested a fresh orange juicer machine so that guest gets to drink fresh juice. Overall good, will come back again if they are able to maintain the affordable price.
