I am very grateful to St Giles for accommodating to mh request for more vegan friendly food on Vesak Day so that I could also enjoy my breakfast happily. I’m so surprised that they really prepared a variety of vegan friendly food. St Giles is always my favourite choice for hotel stay. It’s feels safe with the security around and being linked to a mall it is so convenient, you can buy and eat anything at Mid Valley Southkey mall. Yesterday I saw more interesting F&B in the mall. Unfortunately although I request for a room with a good sunrise view, the window was dirty and the dressing table was not clean too, could see spots on it. Amenities wise, I think it is better now with shampoo and body wash installed. The fragrance in the room and the music from the TV were soothing. Thank you St Giles for another wonderful stay!

Arrived at this hotel and found a mall right downstairs 🏬. There's food, drinks, massages 💆🏻♀️, hair salons 💇🏻♀️, nail salons 💅🏻, and clothes and little trinkets too! Staying on the 20th floor offers great night views. The room was clean, hygienic, and comfortable. I'll definitely come again! 😍

I had a pleasant stay at this hotel. The staff were very friendly, professional, and efficient, which made the overall experience smooth and comfortable. The room was also very clean and well-maintained, and the location is highly accessible, making it convenient to get around.
The only downside was the waiting time at the lift lobby, which was quite long during my stay. It may have been due to a special event or peak period. Aside from that, everything else was excellent, and I would still recommend this hotel.

This hotel is located right on the Johor Strait, and from my room, I had a great view of the bridge connecting Malaysia and Singapore. Both the room and the bathroom were spacious and comfortable. The buffet breakfast was also excellent and plentiful. It's a grand hotel with a impressive feel, yet it's very well-managed. A tall young man at the front desk was particularly helpful; he even spoke Chinese, which made communication very smooth. Since the hotel is quite large, I wasn't sure where to park, and he personally escorted me to the parking lot behind the hotel. That was a really thoughtful gesture, and I'd like to express my gratitude to him here!

Had a great stay at Holiday Inn Johor Bahru City Centre for the 2nd time! Staff were friendly and the room was comfortable. Location is super convenient too.
One concern though - the lift access to guest floors felt a bit too open. Anyone can press the button and get up to the floors, even with the card reader being overridden. Feels like a safety risk, especially in a busy city centre hotel. Hope they look into beefing up security for guests' peace of mind.
Overall, would still recommend - but hope they address this!”

Great Stay with Beautiful Lighting
We had a wonderful weekend stay at this apartment. The place looks amazingly cool, especially with the LED lighting that gives the whole apartment a very modern and cozy vibe. The kids absolutely enjoyed the jacuzzi, which was definitely one of the highlights of our stay. Overall, everything was comfortable and we had a pleasant experience.
Just a few small suggestions that could make the stay even better. It would be helpful if extra plastic bags for rubbish could be provided. Also, some additional lighting at the makeup table would be great, as it is quite dark and we had to do our makeup using the toilet mirror instead.
Another suggestion would be to include some TV channels. When travelling with elderly family members, they usually prefer watching normal TV rather than Netflix. Providing a few extra towels would also be appreciated.
The sandals provided were fine, and the bidet is definitely a big plus point!
Overall, we enjoyed our stay and would still recommend this place.

Great location. Clean and functional. Has some nice touches like the stuff in the lobby. Comfortable bed. The room was stuffy and needs better ventilation and maybe dehumidifier and some scent. The check-in lady was super nice but the check-out one was not very friendly.

However 2 feedback
When we were checking in on a Sat eve at 5pm we were waiting for 6 rooms almost 45 mins and we were the only ones.
Not sure whats the delay caused by as i noyice the staff attending to us was looking at his screen for a long time.
Safety Proposal
While your toilet is spacious there is a high risk of falls esp for kids and elderly as yr toilet shower area does not have the safty gran bars to steady ourselves while imunder the shower and soaping on a slippery wet floor without friction.
The tiles should be layered with rought or fast drying texture for safety.
So either lace the tile surface or installl saftey bars or both.
Do review this urgently..No one should fall inside the toilet while bathing esp since its only the overhead rain shower and no handheld shower piece.
Hope this suggestion help to prevent accidental falls waiting to happen.
Decided to book last minute - initially cant book for family of 2A2C.
WhatsApp them, replies was….sluggish.
Finally manage to book and the room was…not like the initial ones. Previous booking it was really great. Room size room cleanliness.
The room we got was small but there’s multiple hairs on the carpet. Especially with kids, that was just a no no.
Call them via the phone provided, was put on hold and the line got cut off 🙂
Tried calling again, took quite a while before finally got connected.
Upgrade the room for RM80.
Whatever that was book on trip wasn’t as per advertised.
Second, it was drizzling. So we went downstairs to take a look at the swimming area. There’s no towels. Call the front desk ask if the swimming pool is open, they mention “I think it’s open”
Breakfast was subpar.

GGuest UserClean room. Friendly & helpful staff. Location not so convenient cos of the RTS construction. Swimming pool & other facilities on level 13 under renovation during our stay. Shower screen glass door faulty, cannot close completely, water flow out when we shower. Whole toilet floor wet. Floor tiles not the anti fall tiles. Breakfast was so so only. Lots of varieties but taste not there. I rather they focus on fewer dishes and taste good.

TTzeXuanOur stay at Sheraton Desaru Coast Resort was absolutely delightful. The hotel boasts a beautiful environment with a modern yet comfortable design. Our room was clean and spacious. While it's a bit of a walk from the beach, the price was truly a steal. The staff were friendly and professional, making us feel right at home. The breakfast selection was extensive and of good quality. Overall, the atmosphere was very relaxing, perfect for families or a short getaway.
GGuest UserIt was a fabulous short stay, the room was very spacious with a large bathroom too. There's lots of cupboard space for storage, bedding is great, soft duvet and pillows. The shower jet is strong, the walls and floor are very clean, the hotel just opened about half a year ago. Everything works. The location is far from the centre, no decent restaurants or shopping areas nearby unless taking a Grab or hotel shuttle to the city center. SKS shopping city attached to the hotel is known to be opening soon in May 2026. The staff are all very friendly and helpful. The breakfast is nice, with a large selection of very fresh food. The swimming pool is beautiful with lukewarm temperature even at evening.

KKennyOTMGreat location, but water supply was a real problem
Rating: ⭐⭐⭐ (3 stars)
Review:
Book 2 rooms at Here Hotel Johor Bahru. The location is excellent—right near Sutera Mall with lots of food options around. There are also Karaoke and escape room around the corner. Super convenient for a short trip and Love the nostalgic shophouses vibes!!!
However, the water supply was a major issue. The flow was weak and inconsistent, which made showering frustrating. For a hotel room, I expected basic amenities to work properly. Room was otherwise decent and clean, but the water problem really affected the stay.
Good for location, but need to manage expectation. But for its price, it is valued for money.
GGuest UserOverall, a great experience! I originally planned this trip as a getaway with my girlfriend, and since she loves ocean views, we chose this place. The room itself is very spacious, and the sink and toilet were very clean. It really felt like we were on an overseas vacation.

GGuest UserFacilities: The facilities are a bit old, which is understandable since the hotel itself is quite old.
Hygiene: Despite the hotel being old, it was very clean. The room had no strange smells, and the beach was also clean with no rubbish.
Environment: The environment was absolutely fantastic, haha! The beach is right outside, and when we went, there was hardly anyone around. It was incredibly relaxing, and we could see the sea right from our room.
Service: The staff were very welcoming. The buffet was decent; I especially loved the soft-boiled eggs. Although the air conditioning, hairdryer, and sink drainage were all broken on the first day of check-in, and they couldn't fix it overnight, they did move us to another room on the second day. Overall, I'd give it a 4 out of 5.
MMFYDFAThis was our second stay since 2015, and while the rooms are spacious, the resort now feels dated. I was particularly upset by the cleaning policy; our room had no ”Do Not Disturb” signage provided, and housekeeping entered to clean while we were out for breakfast without our request.
As I prefer to secure my personal belongings before anyone enters, this lack of privacy was very uncomfortable. The resort has good beach access, but they must provide door tags and respect guest boundaries. A neutral experience overall compared to our first visit.
GGuest UserWe had a wonderful couples getaway here. The breakfast spread was impressive with a great variety of local cuisine, perfect for both locals and foreign visitors.
The service was outstanding. My girlfriend has a dairy allergy, and the staff took great care of it. They informed all relevant team members, and during breakfast the chef personally guided us on which dishes were safe. Every staff member greeted us warmly wherever we went, and thoughtful touches like water and towels by the pool made the stay feel effortless.
The resort grounds are beautiful and well-maintained. The only minor downside was flies occasionally finding their way into the room, which could be annoying. But overall, an excellent stay. Highly recommended!
