Hotels near Parkson, Johor Bahru

I was pleasantly surprised to come across The Point Boutique Hotel while scrolling Agoda for accommodation for a 2D1N staycation in JB. It turned out to be even better than expected. The staff were friendly, professional, thoughtful and made us feel at home and welcome. Special mention to Devi and Geo who assisted us throughout our stay. The lobby immediately gave a feel of serenity and cleanliness, professionalism. We took a family room with one queen bed and one single bed. The layout of the room made it feel like a mini studio - it did not feel squeezy at all. I appreciated the unique furnishings and little but important details. For instance: 1) room window could be opened for ventilation. 2) window blinds were clean and could be adjusted. 3) bathroom was large and well organised. It had an air fan to keep the air flowing and floor dry. Bathroom also had a window which helped with ventilation. 4) Loved the rain shower. Water pressure and temperature were adjustable. Though there was no shower curtain, the layout of the bathroom ensured that other areas would not get wet at all. The tiles of the bathroom were the non slip kind as well so that was great as I was traveling with my dad in his early 70s. They also provided very thick hotel standard bathroom floor mat and bathing towels. 5) Toiletries were on point, neat and sufficient. Toothbrush was sealed. Appreciated them putting glass cups in the bathroom for usage. My only complaint was that the toothpaste was a bit too mild tasting and not very effective. 6) The bed was big and comfortable. There were also bed side lights which operated by sensor system- very nice touch and modern. The bedside also had power sockets for easy charging of phone. This was very thoughtful and attentive. 7) Water kettle, bottled water, tea/coffee sachets are all wonderful thoughtful amenities. Painting in room also modern, tasteful, classy. 8) Mirrors in room and towel rack are also attentive and well thought through touches !

A nice place to stay with nearby facilities - restaurants a lot and, KK Speedmart just beside the hotel, available parking in front of the hotel.

Easy to book, seamless check in/out process for one-night stay We stayed in the Executive King unit. Very spacious and well equipped amenities (kitchen with fridge and kettle), many electrical sockets. Especially love the bidet with wash, dry, and seat warmer features! It looks like the electrical sockets and bathroom have been renovated recently. However the wardrobes in the kitchen and bathroom aren't so clean on the insides. The soundproofing is not so good, so can hear people in the corridor, rain, and traffic on the motorway outside loudly. Ok if you're a heavy sleeper, but probably will not suit light sleepers looking to get a good rest. No comments on the rest of the hotel amenities, restaurant etc. as it was closed for renovation at the time of our stay. We enjoyed a quiet, easy walk on the road through Kampong Muhd Amin to the restaurants and cafes located along Jalan Kolam Ayer (near Kolam Ayer Mosque). Overall ok as a basic accommodation for short stay on a budget

First of all, the hotel is brand new. The hotel is very close to the JB city centre yet located in a very quiet surroundings. Secured indoor parking. The 2 Bedroom Suite is definitely worth every penny...extremely generous in space, a very functional kitchen, spacious dining area and living room. Would definitely come back with family & kids as they have a nice kids pool at level 5 with nice view of Johor straits & also Singapore!

we stayed 3 days 2 nights. overall is ok. We take the buffet package for net RM35 2 persons too. the facilities are good. kid enjoy the pool a lot. Just the room may need arrange some deep clean at the hidden corner.

The location of the hotel was relatively pleasant - close to eateries, convenience stores, pharmacies, and only a 20-minute drive from JPO. The hotel team's service was not too bad. They were friendly, as helpful as they can be given that they needed to make do with the product they were working in, and responsive. Though, there was one of them who was a trainee that didn't have any sense of being helpful whatsoever during my check-in. I booked a family room (x1 queen bed + x1 single) and a deluxe double (x1 queen bed) for the long weekend. Both rooms smelled funky, like it hasn't been occupied for a while. The windows were dusty, there were minor dirt stains around the edges of the sink head, the sink and the corners of the mirrors and not to mention the clog in the shower's outlet. The 'table' that was provided had black dirt stains at its slits and nooks. The double deluxe room that my parents were in apparently didn't have a window even. Not too sure if it was because we were there for a public holiday weekend, but I would expect my room to be made up with amenities like the shower gel and shampoo topped up for a 3D2N stay. Though, we were brought some when we called the reception. The air-conditioning in my room was very noisy, but at this point I was lucky that it was working and wasn't leaking. The banging of doors in the mornings were unbearable. It sounded like someone decided to open the room doors and left them to close by themselves on purpose. Oh, did I mention the WiFi? Well, it was pretty much non-existent. We tried to connect to a few of them a few times and it either says ”unable to connect” or ”incorrect password” and I'm sure it was the right password because they got it printed on their keycards. We made a call to the reception, and they were helpful with getting the connection to stabilize again and made sure to call me once it has. But it didn't last long. When they say free parking, they're not wrong. The fact that the hotel is made up of shop lots, parking is minimal in front of the hotel and it usually gets packed at breakfast and during dinner time. So I'd suggest either walking around that area or taking a Grab if you'd need to go a little further away from the hotel or risk losing your spot. In summary: 1. Not-to-bad location. Eateries nearby, convenient. 2. Hotel team is helpful 3. Rooms were horrendous 4. Definitely NOT returning.

The overall condition is good; everything has met my expectations for a standard hotel room. However, there is one thing that I'm unsatisfied with: I booked a room for three adults, but the amenities provided are only for two people (two pairs of slippers, two toothbrushes, two towels, etc.). There's no telephone number to call the front desk, so I went down personally to inform them about the situation. The staff promised to send the missing items to our room later, but no one came at all.

Consistent with brand standards, bulk-size amenities are provided here at the Holiday Inn Johor Bahru City Centre and while I do appreciate the positive impact these initiatives have on the environment, the body wash bottles located by the shower area were empty when I checked-in to the room. The opaque bottles definitely make it hard for housekeeping to check whether a top-up is required so this is quite certainly a pain point for everyone. Affordable and modern rooms in a great location make Holiday Inn Johor Bahru City Centre a great choice for travellers from Singapore without private transport.

Everyone in my group loved it. My kids loved it so much. Clean, spacious. We arrived late but they were very accommodating with the set up of the extra bed. My only gripe was there's no extra key card so while the kids were resting in the room, I had to ask for assistance from front desk to help me get into my room. N I ran alot of errands 😂 but the staff were very nice. Aircon wasn't very cold for a new hotel wish we could have increase the speed of the ceiling fan.

I will always stay in this hotel whenever travelling to Johore Bahru. The room rate is quite economical and no changes for the past few years. The room facility has improved even the room rate remain unchanged. i have discovered that the hotel room already been put a refrigerator and the bathroom also has a glass to segregate the shower area when I stay there recently. As for hotel exterior, they have installed a mini fountain to beautify the area. Overall, satisfy to stay at this hotel.
