| 3.0 star rating | we are planning to go on a retreat every month, nearest to singapore. i like the room and swimming pool. my husband and son enjoyed the swim and stay. | bad experience at the lobby during check in. the staff accidentally charged the deposit of RM200 into my debit card. he said it will be refunded within 7days but is unsure if the admin charges charged will be waived off. he said he will check and call me or look for me in the hotel room to inform. he did not. after being stuck in 4hrs of traffic from causeway, and bad check in experience at abt 5pm, we got up to the room for a rest. i could not log into the free wifi. called the frontdesk and he asked me to get away from the window since their wifi is affected by signals from singapore. he also said he will check and call my room back. he did not. i went around the room, and could only connect to wifi while in the toilet. i had to check emails and messages every hour in the toilet instead of the comfort of my hotel bed and the company of my husband and son. i am so disappointed. a meetup with the manager during checkout, she said she cant do anything to help because i did not book directly through the hotel. i am so pissed....! looks like im in the hunt for a different hotel and direct booking. | ina sultan | 02 April 2013 |

| 4.0 star rating | Not bad, we came with low expectations I guess, so we were pleasantly surprised by everything. Bed and bathroom was clean and comfy. | Breakfast was fair - they had roti canai and curry which was good, the other food were just average, nothing stood out. Hotel location was not walkable to anywhere. Cab or drive to nearest mall is City Square which had many variety of food. | Sharmaine | 27 November 2013 |
| 4.5 star rating | I paid for a seaview room..... which can see beautiful sun-set. Breakfast buffet is good. Swimming pool is rather big. I like to take high tea at the Lobby Lounge.... at certain time, there's even a pianist playing. | Jess | 27 November 2013 | |

| 4.5 star rating | Very good for especially the unexpected shuttle for some top locations.Also the staff is nice and helpful all the times | Insufficient in providing the face towel | BCheng | 23 April 2014 |
| 4.0 star rating | generally clean, deluxe twin room is large and clean. | The cleaning staff uses t he hand towels and bath towels to clean the wash basins and the bathroom floors. it's very unhygenic! i am sure the cleaning staff can afford to buy microfiber cleaning cloth for cleaning the room. | Anonymous | 12 August 2014 |
| Breakfast is a good spread. | I am very displeased to discover a deluxe "sea facing" room doesn't come with a mini bar! For a highly rated hotel......No hand towels....no toothbrush...... | Mikomul | 26 December 2014 | |
| 3.0 star rating | Staff very friendly and genuine, helpful too. | the sink in my room 801 was peeling - so the upkeep of the hotel needs looking into. No toothbrush. Check in is pretty late at 3pm and even then the room was not ready - had to wait for 45 mins before we got the room. | Solange | 23 February 2015 |
| 4.0 star rating | Good buffet spread | Should have kids pool | Lina | 11 February 2015 |
| 3.0 star rating | While sleeping, my 2 year old daughter was bitten by an insect just right next to her eye and causing it to go swollen overnight. And because of that we have to rushed her to the hospital to check if there's any infection in her eye. I have a strong feeling it comes in the blankets and the covers from the bed. it all depends on the cleanliness of the bedsheet or whatsoever. Because the same situation happened to a kid sleeping over and had a swollen eye infection the next day. | nurul | 23 February 2015 | |
