What our guests says about facilities

The hotel offers amenities for your comfortable stay and unforgettable experiences

Comfortable Rooms

I stayed in a splendid room that genuinely surprised me with its cleanliness and comfort. The bed was very thick, and the pillows firm, which made my sleep incredibly rejuvenating. For less than SGD 50 a night, the value is unbeatable! Definitely a return visit is on my cards.

Food Options Galore

The dining options at the KSL Hotel were wonderful! I enjoyed a variety of delicious meals, and being right next to KSL Mall meant I had plenty of choices. The food was reasonably priced and very satisfying after a long day of exploring.

Stella

United Kingdom, February 2025

6.8/10

This hotel offers a decent stay in Johor Bahru, featuring comfortable beds and a good variety for breakfast. Despite its somewhat outdated feel and limited TV channels, the peaceful atmosphere sets it apart. However, customer service could use some improvement and I faced issues with the Wi-Fi and room amenities during my stay.

Rooms

7.0

The rooms were comfortable with a nice view, though a bit dated and could potentially be noisy if there are children in neighboring rooms.

Service

5.0

While some staff showed great service, the concierge could be more courteous, and overall, the service felt lacking in terms of customer care.

Location

The hotel is well-situated above KSL Mall, making it convenient for shopping. However, the layout was a bit tricky to navigate initially.

Breakfast was quite good with various options, providing a pleasant start to the day.

7.4/10

I had a mixed experience during my stay at this hotel. While it's conveniently connected to a shopping center and offers a variety of amenities, the rooms are definitely showing their age and need significant maintenance. The service is inconsistent, and I encountered issues with the water supply and housekeeping. However, the hotel does offer good breakfast options and access to a children's water park, making it a family-friendly spot.

Rooms

6.0

The room I stayed in was decent but definitely in need of some TLC. It was clean, but I noticed issues like flooding in the shower and peeling wallpaper that detracted from the overall comfort.

Service

While some staff members were helpful, overall, there seemed to be a lack of coordination, especially during peak check-in times. It would be beneficial for the hotel to have more receptionists available during busy hours.

Location

9.0

The hotel's location is fantastic, with direct access to a shopping mall that has various dining options. It's very convenient for a weekend getaway.

Dining

8.0

Breakfast had a good spread of both Western and local dishes, which was a highlight of my stay. However, it would have been nice to see some variety over the days.

Facilities

7.0

The hotel boasts several facilities like the children's water park and easy shopping access, which are great for families. Yet, they could do with some updates.

I had a primarily good experience at this hotel, with efficient check-in and helpful staff. The kids loved the water park, and having a mall right below was a big plus for convenience. However, the parking situation was quite chaotic during peak hours, and the maintenance of certain areas, like the pool, could use improvement.

The water park was a hit with my kids, but part of it was under maintenance, which was disappointing. Overall, the amenities were quite enjoyable, though.

I was really excited to stay at this resort spa, as I had many fond memories from my previous visits. Unfortunately, my latest experience was underwhelming due to lackluster service and some maintenance issues. While the location remains exceptional, especially with shopping nearby, I feel the hotel has slipped in terms of hospitality and upkeep.

Rooms

The rooms were adequately spacious but did not feel well-maintained during my visit. The wardrobe had faults which diminished my overall experience.

The service was disappointing this time around. The front desk staff were not welcoming, which made my arrival feel uninviting.

The facilities like the gym and pool are still enjoyable, but I did notice some maintenance issues that could use attention.

7.0/10

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. On the one hand, the location is incredibly convenient as it's directly connected to a shopping mall, which made it easy to find food and entertainment. The rooms were generally clean and spacious, with a comfortable bed. However, the service was lacking at times, especially when I faced issues with the air conditioning. The pricing was also a slight concern for what I received, particularly with some amenities being quite basic.

Rooms

7.0

The rooms were clean and spacious, but the views weren't great, overlooking some hotel's ventilation systems. It would have been nice to have disposable toiletries available. Overall, I would rate the rooms at a solid 7.

Service

6.0

While some staff were helpful, there were times when my requests weren't met promptly. I expected a bit more given the hotel's level. I would give the service a 6.

Location

9.0

Being right above a shopping mall is fantastic for convenience, making it a ideal spot for quick meals or shopping. I'd rate the location a 9.

Dining

7.0

The hotel dining options were decent, with a variety to choose from, but the quality didn't quite match up to my expectations. I would give the dining experience a 7.

Facilities

6.0

The facilities were basic but functional. I didn't feel the overall experience matched the price point. I would rate the facilities a 6.
