2-Star Hotels in Johor, Malaysia

Warm and Homey, Clean and Comfortable: Though not a luxury hotel, this guesthouse clearly shows thoughtful touches everywhere. The front desk staff were friendly and welcoming, always happy to provide local information and assistance. The rooms are simply yet warmly decorated, incredibly clean and tidy, with soft, comfortable bedding ensuring a good night's sleep. While the bathroom facilities aren't particularly spacious, the hot water is plentiful, water pressure is stable, and everything is very well-maintained and clean, putting one at ease. Overall, it creates a 'home away from home' relaxing atmosphere, with attention to detail evident in prioritizing guest comfort. Thoughtful Amenities, Great Value for Money: The guesthouse offers strong and stable free Wi-Fi, which is crucial for guests needing to stay connected or handle business. The most pleasant surprise is its excellent value for money. For such clean accommodation and attentive service, the room rate is incredibly reasonable, making it definitely the top choice for budget-conscious or convenience-prioritizing savvy travelers staying in Johor Bahru.

Clean hotel with clean room. Good hairdryer, dries hair quickly. Good tv and comfortable bed. Many eateries all around the hotel vicinity, there’s also a laundry shop near the hotel. Massage shops also just next door. Easy check in and check out. Eco hotel because the toiletries are in permanent bottles so zero waste on toiletries that way. Toothbrush and coffee available at the reception to take if needed. There’s lift at hotel for easy floors access. However the toilet is really very small and the arrangement of toilet bowl and sink is quite uncomfortable, too tight a space. Also the shower head angle is very bad and difficult to adjust. Bad toilet experience due to the layout of toilet and facilities. Other than that, it’s quite a nice stay

Recently transitioned to the Swing & Pillows brand, with ongoing renovation that's now largely complete. The all-important Quality of Welcome, so rare in JB hotels, is outstanding. Kudos to Umar, Jason and the team. 👍🏼 😍. Check in is fast and efficient. Keypad code for entry to the property if reception unattended may seem obvious, but it's a big help with both security and quality of life for hotel guests. Rooms are truly spotless, towels and linens are new and fresh, the bathrooms functional and the showers 🚿 enjoyable. All these things are rareties that are not to be taken for granted with JB hotels in this price range. By the way, even the Single Room No Windows is fairly spacious and the aircon and WiFi (do select the 5GHz band) are very effective. An easy, and strong, recommendation from me. I've been visiting JB for over 15 years, lived in JB for over a year before Covid-19 and have been super critical of JB hotels (price, quality, service, cleanliness and security / safety concerns) over the years. Swing & Pillows @Johor Bahru is a successful transformation of an old property. Well done 👏🏼 💕.

So, the hotel stay? Let's just say it wasn't winning any ”Most Likely to Be Remembered Fondly” awards. The Wi-Fi signal was so weak, it made dial-up look like warp speed. The staff seemed to have attended the ”Charm School for Robots” – graduating with honors in monotone efficiency. As for entertainment, the cable was flatter than a week-old roti canai, and local TV might as well have been broadcasting from Mars, linguistically speaking. Thankfully, there was a 24-hour mamak for emergency mee goreng runs. A barbershop next door offered the hope of a pre-9 PM trim, assuming you could beat the early-bird special to receding hairlines. And a mamak convenience store stood guard, also clocking out at 9 PM sharp.

First time staying here (single room without window). Hotel is clean & comfortable, small room but just nice for one person solo stay, many foods, convenience stores, pharmacy nearby, very convenient. Got lift & parking in front of hotel , friendly receptionist.  Just that room can hear outside sound clearly especially night time if got people talking you can hear, room no hair dryer. Other than this, all satisfied .  Will stay again.

ImpInitially hesitant about this hotel based on reviews, but our 1st night changed our mind — we ended up staying another nigh on 4th! Not flashy, but for the budget, the room cleanliness was top-notch, especially the bedsheets & pillows — super clean & comfy 👍 Azul, the staff we met on night 2, was awesome & made us feel welcome 🙏 Appreciated his help with our requests! Rate was a big plus compared to nearby hotels. Definitely coming back 😊

sorry tak amik gmbr surrounding but so far puas hati berbaloi byr murah walaupun bilik kecik sikit but issokey murah kan

First off, the location is quite remote for Johor as a whole, mainly because the Persiaran Laksamana area is newly developed. However, it's very close to Puteri Harbour International Ferry Terminal, which makes it ideal for travelers arriving by ferry. Note that the detailed map location on Trip.com is incorrect. The correct address should be Almas Suites, Persiaran Laksamana, 79100 Iskandar Puteri, Johor Darul Ta'zim. Due to this location, if you plan on frequently traveling to and from JB, you'll need to factor in potentially high transportation costs (more travel time and higher Grab fares). If you opt for a high-floor room, you'll generally have a good experience with a nice view from the open balcony. However, the balconies are quite close to each other, so you might catch a glimpse of what your neighbors are up to! 😉 No rooms provide toothbrushes or toothpaste, and you'll need to bring your own shampoo and shower gel. If you choose to eat in the room, you'll quickly discover it attracts tiny ants. It's best to dine at restaurants outside and then return to the room to relax. During your stay, no room service is provided as it operates as a self-service apartment.

Show on the app said some room have window , so I requested for window room but get the room without windows , feelings stuffy when go in to the room , No free public parking on weekdays, as what the trip.com mentioned public parking is free ...
