2-Star Hotels in Johor, Malaysia

Definitely will book here again to stay, the staff is very helpful and good, we are arrive on 1pm, although I asked her can we check in early, she said that 2pm only can check in, but she helping us to proceed check in after 10minutes, really appreciate her. Anyway the location very good and I like to room.

Stayed at Atelier Hotel Abiad Johor Bahru and had a pleasant experience. The room was clean, modern, and comfortable, with good air-conditioning and strong Wi-Fi. The hotel is conveniently located near many eateries and shops, making it easy to find food and daily necessities. Staff were friendly and helpful during check-in and check-out. Overall, it’s a good choice for a short stay in JB with reasonable pricing. Would consider staying again.

The quality of this chain varies wildly, some are terrible, others are pretty good! This one is newly opened, so the facilities are brand new, but the soundproofing is really poor! The bathroom design is excellent though.

The location is excellent. Near supermarket and restauranta. So convenient and close to everything I needed, The room was clean but its quite small. Friendly staff and you can do your self check in. So easy. Considering the very reasonable rate, this hotel offers great value for money.

This hotel is great, conveniently located near R&F and the JB immigration office, as well as JB Station. It's also easy to find food nearby. However, the hotel's current name isn't yet discoverable on maps. So, if you're using Grab or setting your destination, you'll need to use the old hotel name: Fives Hotel Meldrum. That name is accurate on location maps. If you search for the current hotel name, the address isn't correct. So, please use the old hotel name, Fives Hotel Meldrum. Hopefully, the name and address will be updated to match soon, to make it easier to find.

EXTENDED my stay one more night. Is real good stay😊😊 Location is👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼 - easy access to foods and shopping and massage.

iBilik (”bilik” means ”room”) Hotel, part of Swing & Pillows, is hands down unquestionably the best value for money place to stay in Johor Bahru. It's also one of the cleanest. Umar is the personal embodiment of ”hospitality” and is a shining light and example in Visit Malaysia 🇲🇾 Year 2026. Even the single rooms are big enough for solo travellers with luggage and shopping. Beds are clean and the rooms have everything you need. WiFi is fast and stable. Aircon is very effective. Shower has hot water. Water cooler plus iron and ironing board available on each floor. What more do you need for a few days stay? Highly recommended.

The room was very clean, and the owner's design was thoughtful. They even had an electric mosquito repellent device outside the room (though I still recommend bringing an extra one, as I did encounter some mosquitoes). You can tell if the bathroom is occupied by the light. If you're taking a taxi, the location might feel a bit remote, but there's actually a gas station with a convenience store just a short walk away. Considering the low price, this is truly excellent. However, there are a few things to note: doing laundry costs 7 MYR per cycle, and air conditioning is 13 MYR per day. Also, since the entire building is single-story, there's still a possibility of encountering small insects like ants in the room.

The room was tiny and looked nothing like the pictures. There weren't even any hangers. The location is very remote, with absolutely no shops or restaurants nearby. It's a long walk from the back of the train station. I'd recommend staying at a hotel closer to the train station exit, as that area is very lively with plenty of dining options. The Arulmigu Sri Rajakaliamman Glass Temple and Johor Ancient Temple are there, and it's just another ten-minute walk to Jalan Tan Hiok Nee. Remember to choose a hotel in the opposite direction from this one for a more vibrant area – it's only a five-minute walk from the station. This hotel was a bit overpriced. I later switched to another hotel that was much larger and cheaper, though they didn't provide bottled water.
