Business travel Hotels in Kedah, Malaysia

Star City hotel in Kedah is located near Menara Alor Star and in the middle of town. The receptionist staff is friendly even though we have a late check-in. The rooms are good. The hotel staff in the breakfast area are very efficient and friendly with a smile and the hotel overall is good only two things spoil the room The carpet has a smell and I realized someone came to open our door without knocking or bell before check-out time (12pm)..

An hotel to consider if you're planning a stay in Sungai Petani, Kedah, Malaysia. The rooms are well equipped and maintained. Clearness is ensured. The room is equipped with simple and needed amenities including the coffee making facilities. The front office staff too put an happy face while checking in and out. There is no private parking here by the hotel but one can always park at the local authorities parking along the road. The hotel puts up the parking coupons for you on their experience. Overall a great stay. Nandakumaran Balamuniandy Room 409

Stayed at this hotel for 1 night. I would consider this hotel as a budget hotel. For that category, this hotel is pretty good. Firstly, I like the location very much. It’s by the main street and just across the Lotus Hypermarket (formerly known as Tesco). There are many shops around it. In the evening, there are many stalls and food trucks that sell delicious street foods. You won’t go hungry here. The room size is decent and the bed and pillow are very comfortable. The room is clean. I would have given this at least a 4 star rating but I gave 3 star because of the following: - the shower water becomes stagnant because the flow was blocked or something. It took a long while before the water subsided. - getting a parking slot near the hotel during the day was quite a challenge because there are many popular shops there plus a major bank which customers took up most of the parking spaces. At night, the parking is quite empty. - that guy who was manning the front desk when I checked in was not friendly at all. Not sure what his problems were but being a customer facing staff, he should at least show a bit more pleasant personality. - there’s a sink right after you enter the room! It’s outside the bathroom. I don’t quite understand the logic of this room design. In summary, it’s decent hotel and the room rate is very reasonable esp if you book through their official website. There’s a supposedly 5-star hotel just next door. I have stayed there before. Given a choice, I would definitely stay at this Leverage Business hotel rather than the so-called 5 star hotel. It has it hits and misses but certainly value for money.

The Merilton Hotel is on some levels an OK basic Hotel however given the rates charged it is an utter disappointment. The entrance areas are scruffy which doesn't create a good first impression. On to the room, we booked what was described as a family suite. A liberal use of term, taking liberty with description would be apt. For a start there is a kettle and two mugs but no basics such as tea, coffee and creamer. Onto the TV it didn't work. A sofa bed, I assume this is the qualifier for family suite, is a bit of a broken wreck. Lean back and it folds out with a bang with the potential to cause injury. The bathroom is spacious and works well, if somewhat dark. Ironing, well it looks a bit Dickensian, please see picture for reference. It located in the corridor and is communal. Breakfast, both the room and what's on offer has to be seen to be believed, so I took a few pictures. Now onto the positives, yes there are a couple, the WiFi is very good. I was also impressed by the water refilling station in the corridor which dispensed free filtered water meaning bottles could be reused. The bed was very comfortable and the bed linen clean. That's it, as upon leaving there was a strong stench in the foyer of pee which invaded the nostrils. The question, would I return? An emphatic No on this one!
