"There is no disposable slipper, no mineral water and no toiletries so have to prepare ourselves. Hotel location is the best with a lot eateries and shopping area around and plenty of seating areas to rest your foot. Overall is a good place to stay."

"Our stay at The Lakehouse was lovely, and very memorable. It's position, the excellent service provided by the staff and the relaxing, early 20th century feel of the place, was wonderful, and we were sad to leave."

"Very well-maintained property with friendly staff. Room was nicely decorated and clean. Our room was facing the main road so it was noisy at times. Breakfast is really nice and it is made to order."

"The Smokehouse retains its old world charm. The staff are wonderful, the rooms original and the gardens lovely. Expect old fashioned as that’s the whole point! Easy walk or 5 minute taxi to the local town, 300m to night markets and an easy walk to the nearest village. We walked to the hiking trails and golf course. "

What every 5-star hotel should be like. Service goes above and beyond, and the rooms are clean and beautifully appointed, with high ceilings. The view is stunning, and we spent a lot of our time in the room just looking out over the city. The standout was Diwali: at midnight, hundreds of separate fireworks displays went off across the city, and we could watch them all from above.

Stayed 2 nights at this amazing retreat in Ipoh with my wife, in an overwater villa. The meditation cave and steam cave helped to ease away tension but we found the hotspring dipping pools were absolutely the best for relaxation, particularly the private spa in our villa. Jeff's cellar was a revelation - how do I get one!
The staff were great, very attentive and knowledgeable about all aspects of the retreat. Meals at Pomelo are beautifully presented and delicious so well done to the chefs and...

The staff were very helpful, and when realising our flight was at midnight, we extended our stay for an extra day and the process was so easy (just a call to reception). the flights and early online check made the process a whole lot easier

Japamala is a beautiful resort that relaxes your soul. It is where the tropical jungle meets the beach. The weather is hot but you can cool off in the sea or one of the lovely pools. The food is suprisingly good for such an isolated location. The best thing about Japamala are the people who work there who are so happy, kind and accomodating. We felt totally recharged after five days there and intend on returning.

Great property, location, but mainly the service attitude of all staff. Being coeliac, they went the extra mile with GF breakfast, afternoon tea and dinner. We even got a travel food pack. Can't rate them high enough.

Recently refurbished and presents nicely with quality fixtures and fittings. Still an old building so AC is not the quietest. Good value for the quality.

The food we found wasn’t as nice as some of the small restaurants we found in the village. The beds were very hard. We unfortunately are not hard bed people. The staff were all very pleasant and the resort location was the best with lots to do

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Hotel De'La Ferns - Room 302. From our room we had a view over the highlands and at the end of the corridor we could see one of the English bungalows - Hillbrow House. The hotel was nicely located about a 10 minute walk to Tanah Rata along a footpath. The manager and staff were very friendly and helpful. The breakfast selection provided plenty of variety and the dinner menu was excellent. We also enjoyed the Teh Tarik and scones one afternoon. I can...

Nicely located at the top of Genting Highlands.
There are some convenient shops at the ground floor if you crave late-night snacks.
We stayed on tower 3. Microwave stopped working and in no time, they replaced it as soon as we reported. There are some construction happening closeby, which can be noisy at times, we were so tired that it didn't even bother us at all.

The property surroundings are very nice, staff friendly. The uphill walk to the food outlets can be a little challenging for the slightly unfit, but the coming back home is great., A short GRAB ride to the Genting highlands, to enjoy the beautiful surroundings and scenery. A peaceful place to relax
