Escape to Colmar Tropicale: A European Getaway Just 45 Minutes Drive from Kuala Lumpur
#weekendgetaways #malaysia
I highly recommend visiting Colmar Tropicale for a weekend getaway. We stayed overnight in one of their charming vintage rooms, which offered a cozy and nostalgic atmosphere. Staying overnight also gave us the chance to explore and enjoy this beautiful place when it was less crowded, allowing us to fully appreciate the tranquil surroundings.
The colorful half-timbered buildings and cobblestone streets really capture the essence of Colmar, France, making it feel like you've stepped into a European village.
We were particularly enchanted by the Japanese garden, a serene retreat within the resort, where you can rent a kimono at a minimal cost for an added cultural experience. The garden’s peaceful ambiance, combined with the picturesque views, made for a perfect spot to unwind. With Colmar Tropicale just a short drive from Kuala Lumpur, it’s an ideal place to relax and recharge without straying far from the city.

Colmar Tropicale - French village
I believe many have already been here. The first time I visited this place it was like being abroad. The cool and comfortable weather makes me really like this place.
French-style atmosphere with a beautiful panorama in the background makes this place is one of the highland destinations that you must visit in Malaysia.
Tips 💡
If you want to take nice photos without many people in the background, wake up early, stroll along the building and enjoy the scenic beauty of this place.

Breathe in up on the Hill of Tinggi
#hotelreview
It was my very first visit to Colmar Tropicale, Bukit Tinggi. It was not very cold but the weather was just fine. The hotel concept is based on French village and I loved the exterior of the hotel.
Although the hotel was a bit run down, i did enjoy the feeling staying up on the hill with a bit of European theme. Room was big and spacious. a verandah overlooking other themed hotel was nice, shower with a bath tub and most importantly, there was a Starbucks at the lobby.

The Chateau Spa & Wellness Resort
This place was amazing!! We were treated like a vip, the staff welcome us with a friendly smile and they sat us on a vip lounge while waiting for our room to be ready. They even gave us a tour around the hotel; swimming pool, available restaurants etc. before we enter our room. The service & hospitality was beyond expectation. The food at La Vie and the breakfast was great. Colmar Tropicale was just a short walk away from the hotel. The atmosphere, landscape and view at this place was everything!!

The Waterway Villa
We had 2D1N booked for Bali Villa Corner Suit which can fit for 12 people (add beds). We had no regret to come here, best natural retreat ever, love the fresh air, surround by natural green trees. The environment is super relaxing, comfort and clean. We love to spend our family quality time by chit and chilling. It is good have no wifi in the room, no tv and limited mobile data coverage there, that’s why we spent time with family, not phone. Kids can play at the poolside and riverside nearby, adult can do some jungle trekking, hiking and karaoke. Afternoon tea, dinner and breakfast foods are good and satisfy. We definitely will come back again in future.

Bukit Tinggi Colmar Tropicale
It was a short but sweet getaway with the wife and baby. Lots of wildlife can be seen, including monkeys from our balcony, swans, rabbits and even parrots.
Ample parking in basement available for hotel guests.
Dining choices were fairly limited, with only 2 proper dining choices.
Breakfast was mostly a Malaysian affair with Nasi Lemak, various pastries, Sausages and fruits.
Come early if you are looking a larger table.

short getaway to Bukit Tinggi
After attended my nephew wedding at Bentong, I decided to bring my family to this beautiful place known as Colmar Tropicale.
The weather was lovely eventhough it’s a bit cloudy but we managed to arrive the place peacefully.
Noticed there is few local and foreign tourists loitering around. Some souvenir and conveniece shops are easily to found.
The building here is almost slightly same as what they have in most countries in Europe. At first I thought the place will be freezing as hell but surprisingly it is not.
You can simply wear any outfit as long as you feel comfortable.
I really recommend this place for a quick short trip.

French Village in Malaysia
This is Colmar Tropicale a French Village in Bukit Tinggi Malaysia. It’s up in a hill and a very lovely picturesque place. There were some renovations for upgrades going. Weather is awesome here. Breezy and chill. My go to place when I need some time on my own. They charge an entrance fee of RM14 per adult and children up to 12 yo RM7.00. A little winding road but fun. Food wise - anything and everything is available from breakfast to super. On Saturdays there’s a night market too and some live shows, if I’m not mistaken. A must visit place if you’ve never been here. It’s only a 15-20 mins drive from the foothill. Enjoy!!! #CelebrateWithTrip #bukittinggi #colmartropicale #malaysia #daytrips

French Themed stay @ Malaysia
#celebratewithtrip
If you are near genting highlands but am looking for an alternative accommodation, do consider Colmar Tropicale, Berjaya Hills, which is around 1.5-2 hours drive away.
It is a french themed resort exterior wise which makes it good for photos.
Interior wise it is big and spacious - bed, sofa bathtub etc all included which makes it almost like a holiday house.
Experience the french culture in malaysia now =) Good for those who have not been to france before for an initial experience
