Hotels Near Masjid As-Solihin 2020 in Kuala Selangor

They call this a “homestay,” which almost deterred me from staying here. It’s actually a pleasant hotel that just lacks a 24 hour front desk — I think it’s staffed during daylight hours — and relies on an electronic kiosk for check in and check out. There’s no cafe or restaurant, but there are food vending machines in the lobby and restaurants nearby. You’ll want to come with your own transportation. That said, we had a very pleasant stay there, and if you don’t require hotel services, you will too. The hotel is located in one of the many concrete, box-like structures that you’ll see in the padi fields around Sekinchan. These used to be commercial nesting houses for the swiftlets whose saliva nests are used to make birds’ nest soup. Normally the swiftlets nest in caves in remote areas, which makes harvesting the nests difficult. But if you have plenty of swiftlets and no caves, as in Sekinchan, you can build an artificial cave and have a business. I guess that business didn’t thrive, and many of these bird nest houses have been repurposed into alternative uses like this one. The hotel is constructed entirely of concrete (floors, walls, ceilings). The rooms are adequate in size with a huge window providing an excellent view over the rice fields. The rooms are immaculate; air conditioning is good; and a station providing filtered drinking water is available next to the elevator on each floor to refill your water bottles. The kiosk-based check in and check out works well, but is inflexible. If you want to extend your stay you still have to use the kiosk to check out on your original date of departure and check in again. Even though you’re paying for the next day, the kiosk still will charge you a significant penalty if you don’t complete the check out by 12 o’clock check out time. This is weird and inconvenient (and the front desk staff don’t tell you these details), but if you know the rule you can easily manage it. The limited front desk staff speak only Chinese, with the exception of one older lady who frequently isn’t there but is reachable by phone. The hotel has a few set ups in the back (swing, heart-shaped seat and staircase to nowhere) to help you get Instagram-worthy photos on the spot. These seemed to be very popular with young couples staying there. There are several casual restaurants nearby, including a good Vietnamese restaurant just a couple of blocks away, plus lots of Chinese restaurants. (The population of Sekinchan is 80% Chinese.) I came here to photograph the abundant kingfishers that nest in the banks of the irrigation canals running through the rice fields. Padi Sentral was perfect for my needs — comfortable room, perfect location, inexpensive).

It is a nice place to stay and closer to the main attraction area. Front Desk service could be better and they need to be friendly to all the guest and to minimize talking to each other's. Room are spotless.

There were 4 bad spirits that kept on disturbing me in Room 1-1 while I was asleep. They kept on touching me until I couldn't sleep at all. When I could no longer tolerate, I woke up my husband and told him to bring his pillow and shift to our friend's room instead. In there the bad spirit still followed me so I barely sleep the entire night. On the following day, I made a complaint to the Front Desk and I was told that they are in fact aware of such bad spirits especially in Room 1-1. I was so upset and told them that they should not allow this to happen. They should at least conduct prayer to that room so that the bad spirits will leave and will be at peace; otherwise, they should not open the room for guests to occupy. Worst is, the bad spirit still followed me to Kuala Lumpur. The whole night I was not feeling well and could not sleep at all. On the following day, I was totally sick and was suffering from a terrible headache; that was the time that I called on my Sifu friend to come over to my office and have me checked. Upon conducting prayers, I felt a bit better already. On that night, I was already feeling well and was able to sleep peacefully. The sifu told me that the one who followed me was an old lady. I plea to the management of this hotel to offer more prayers to those poor spirits so they will be in peace.

The room was very clean and comfy to stay. Easy to check in and we dint have to wait for a longer time. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Near to Padi field and Redang Beach. Easy to find seafood restaurant nearby. Definitely will come again. Thank you for great hospitality.

We stayed here due to the close proximity to the local bus depot. We chose to catch public transport from KL and then walk the 5 minutes to this hotel. Reception staff were friendly. We had a few conversation issues but I don't speak any Malay and their English was good but not good enough to answer some of my questions. They helped out as much as they could. Our room was comfortable and clean. We booked without window which they confirmed with us on check in. Overall a good stay and would recommend for anyone else doing the fireflies and skymirror independently from expensive organised tours.

A good hotel to stay overnight for those who are looking for accommodation while waiting for their spouse to visit the hospital... is there a pool yet, you know...

The guy at the reception counter very helpful and productive. Whatever my complaints (dark hallway, empty hair and body gel's container etc) were settled by him. Totally satisfied with his manner and attitude. When he said he'll settle it then it was trully settled. Forgot to ask for his name but he was at the counter when I checked in around 3pm and he was still on duty when i came back from work aroind 10-11pm.

A bit far away from the city but near to pekan kuala selangor. suitable for people who wants to get away from city chaos. got near nice place to go as kopi sawah and roti canai pelangi. sekinchan also is just around the corner. Recommended for single travelers like me. place is safe and nice. clean but not that sound proof 🤣🤣

The room is unexpectedly spacious..You can comfortably pray in the room. Their room is also very clean. There are a lot of food eateries nearby and on Saturday nights there are food trucks nearby. Highly recommended for those parents sending their kids to UITM Puncak Alam

The room is clean and comfortable. Overall it is okay and nice. But the room I stayed is beside the road. So it will have some noise like car and motorbike, but okay too, acceptable. If for those who dislike the noise, I think you can choose room without window maybe 🤔
