Reviews and Ratings
I had a very small room at the corner, which looked very different, giving off a bad smell. However, it had necessary facilities such as a safe, tea & coffee, table, and chair. The room was totally uncomfortable, in poor condition, and not well-maintained.
My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant overall. The rooms, although lacking soundproof doors, were clean and in a great location with a river view. The service, despite some lapses in manners, was friendly and accommodating, especially for a family room. The location was strategic, near popular attractions and the city center. The dining experience was a bit pricey but offered decent options. The facilities were sufficient for a comfortable stay.
The hotel offers a good location near the city center and park, with reasonable room facilities. However, the dining choices for breakfast were limited. The strategic location near the famous Kula Cake is a plus, but the view from the ground floor dining area was not impressive.
The hotel has friendly and helpful service, but the rooms feel rejected due to windows and air-conditioning issues. The location is great near attractions, but accessing the area during the rainy season can be tricky. Dining options are limited, and the facilities are decent.
The hotel has nice room amenities like a fridge, kettle, and toiletries. However, the room faces another building despite what the staff said, and there was a cigarette smell when turning on the air conditioning.
The hotel is strategically located in the middle of Pekan Kuantan, near the Kuantan Riverfront and 188 Tower, making it convenient for exploring the city and enjoying nearby attractions. The rooms are clean and spacious for two people, albeit a bit congested at times. The service was satisfactory, though some improvements in friendliness were needed. The dining options were sufficient, offering a choice of fried rice or noodles as the main course. The location is ideal for those with a car for transportation and looking to explore the local food scene, particularly near Satay Uncle Bard and Kula Cakes. Overall, the hotel offers a great location and value for money, with some room for service enhancements.
Although I had some concerns with the room's cleanliness and air conditioning system, the hotel's strategic location in the center of the city was a major plus point. The dining experience didn't meet my expectations, but the friendly service and convenient facilities added some value to my stay.
I had a pleasant stay at the hotel with a fantastic view of Sungai Kuantan from my room, even though I requested a non-smoking room. The room was incredibly spacious, although it did not directly face the river. The service from the next shift was commendable and very helpful, despite some members not being overly friendly. The hotel's location was strategic and convenient, especially with free parking available, but having a car is advisable for getting around. Unfortunately, the dining experience was disappointing, with the 'mee goreng mamak' not meeting expectations. On the bright side, the facilities were impressive, adding to the overall value of my stay.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were not the best, feeling like staying in a store room with bags of dirty linen around, but the view through the river of Sungai Kuantan was quite nice. The service was helpful overall, although there were some issues like staff chewing gum. The location was convenient, right at the center of the city, with the ECM nearby. The dining was not worth the price, especially breakfast, but the grilled and boiled fish were decent.
The hotel is conveniently located near many shops and attractions, making it suitable for various needs. The rooms are very basic and not too cozy from a western standpoint, but the location is a definite plus.
The hotel offers a great view of the river from rooms on every floor, although they are installed quite high to reach. While facing the road, the rooms provide a unique perspective of the surroundings. The service was very helpful, with a huge parking lot and affordability, although some staff members were not as informative. The location is perfect, directly opposite the hotel, near the lift area, and close to Kuantan Tower. The dining experience was generally good, with nice and value-for-money options, although the breakfast buffet had limited choices. The facilities were satisfactory, catering to various needs.
The hotel is conveniently located in downtown Pekan Kuantan, offering easy access to local attractions and great food spots. The rooms were spacious but a bit warm, possibly due to the air conditioning unit not being very powerful. The service was friendly overall, but some improvements in staff friendliness at the front desk would enhance the guest experience. Dining provided tasty options with a decent variety, although some dishes were overly salty. The location, with its scenic view of the river and proximity to key landmarks, added to the charm of the stay.
The hotel's location near Sg Pahang and recreational park is strategic, but cleanliness needs improvement. While being near popular spots like Teruntum Tower and mural walls is convenient, the difficult access during the rainy season is a drawback. The dining options are decent but lack variety, and the lack of a view of the river from the ground floor is a downside.
The hotel has a great location, near many restaurants and malls. The rooms are spacious and nice for three guests, although they have a bit of a musty smell and are slightly dark. The service, especially the night shift staff, could be friendlier. The location is convenient for exploring the city, with easy access to cafes and restaurants. The dining experience offers limited breakfast options but is good for the price. Overall, a decent stay with some room for improvement.
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. On the bright side, the rooms were comfortable and ideal for families with kids like mine; however, the issue of price fluctuation between peak and off-peak times was a bit confusing. The service was mostly good, with staff being courteous and responsive to requests, but the concern about bird flu prevention was a bit off-putting. The location was convenient, being in the city center and easily accessible to many places, but the disappointment came from the water pressure in the shower and the unstable WiFi connection. Dining offered a decent experience with a view of Kuantan, although the need to visit the cafe for meals made it less appealing. Overall, the facilities were adequate for a comfortable stay.
