Top 5-Star Hotels in Ayer Keroh

PROs 1) Room considered as new and clean 2) Housekeeping team very responsive and quick too (kudos to them) 3) Food choices for breakfast were OK CONs 1) Location was too remote and far from any eateries. 2) View from room was just an eyesore especially the one facing to Metra Square 3) Parking space looked unclean and spooky It is a good hotel but for me I will not book again in the near future (sorry for the sincere comment)

I spent a night here after my talk in a nearby hospital. It is located at the business area of Ayer Keroh, which on the contrary, is not very busy. As it is one of the tallest building around, finding the hotel is not difficult. As the title suggest, it is a basic no frills hotel. The lobby is small and well lit. The room is clean and functional. It was well worth for the price. The issue is since it is fairly cheap, the hotel seems to be choice of the rowdy Mainland Chinese tourists. The breakfast was where they displayed their disorderliness.

From the sweltering heat of the lobby to sp**** staffing, everything says “we only wish we are a 5-star but...”. Mudzaffar looks like they are a hotel training academy specialising in aiming at generating as many as guest complaints as they can possibly get. What they actually do with the complaints is anyone’s guess: probably classify them under OSA. These are the training areas that we experienced: 1. Air-conditioning in lobby not functioning. Probably for vocational trainees under find the cause. Or for finance officers on how to brutally reduce cost. 2. Inadequate staff to handle concierge. Designed for managers who can see the effects 3. Shops not opened. For time management trainees to see relationship between opening hours and revenue 4. Toilet with no hand drying facilities. For maintenance staff is and why the floor and door knobs are wet 5. Late check in: Staff learning to admit guests strictly at 3pm check in time despite hotel near empty on Sunday at 2:00pm 6. Slip shod construction. Meant for building students to see how to frustrate a 5-star claim 7. Room: 2 pillows for a double bed. Not even one extra in the cupboard. TV no reception until a few hours passed by. Room painted, no wall paper. Shower water pressure low. They give only one key card. All for trainees to evaluate the savings made. 8. Upon reaching the room there were 4 plates left by previous guest by the door. When we came back from dinner at 9pm, they were still there. Called reception and they casually replied “we will send someone to clear them” unperturbed by what happened. That off the cuff reply proves training works at this Academy. In all the Mudzaffar Hotel Training Academy is highly recommended for those who are into the academics. Not for a real hotel guest with out of norm expectations of staying in a hotel for comfort and rest.

Near to MITC Melaka, thus very convenient if you have an event there. Cleanliness can be improved but with the price that they offered, it's a good bargain not to be missed. Located at the heart of Ayer Keroh. Nowadays they collect a deposit of RM50 (refundable) and local tax of RM2 (non refundable).

Above average hotel but each room is studio sized and has proper pressured hot and cold water baths. Amenities otherwise are rather basic so you’ll have to go out to get food even if you plan to stay in to rest. Room is spacious. It's like a loft apartment. Have bathtub and shower. Food is good. Appropriate amount of food selection. Location is not lively enough. Its new place. Parking is okay. Not really suitable for older or OKU people. During peak hours, taking elevator is a nightmare. Only 2 small elevator.

The room is still relatively large, but a bit old. There is no elevator and the stairs are narrow. Simple accommodation is no problem!
