Sheraton Johor Bahru

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing hotel, super big and clean. A mall beside. Perfect"

Shama Suasana Johor Bahru

8/10 Good

"We booked this hotel primarily for it’s access to self-service laundry machines. The machines were broken and there was no communication from the hotel. I found out when I enquired at check-in. When I asked when will it be fixed, the front desk said to check the next morning. I understand that machines break down, but what was unacceptable was that when I called the next morning to check on the status of the machines, the person responding to my inquiry said “I don’t know. I haven’t checked.” This person didn’t offer to check or to call back to let me know. When I personally walked down to the front desk to ask when the laundry machines would be fixed, they looked baffled and didn’t know that the machines were broken. One person offered a feeble response by saying the machines aren’t maintained by the hotel. This is a service advertised by your hotel. It’s not right to say the machines are someone else’s responsibility. The hotel guests isn’t the one responsible for tracking down who maintains the laundry machines. This issue put a damper on our stay in an otherwise really nice place."

Holiday Inn Express & Suites Johor Bahru by IHG

8/10 Good

"The hotel is about 10 to 15min walk from City Square and easy to get to. Initially, we did not know how to get there, so took a bus from JB Sentral, #J10 and drop about 350 meters from it. Staff guided us to go to the 3rd floor carpark and turn right towards Public Bank, City Square is just after it."
