Ipoh Dataran Ipoh Hotels

"The iconic Syuen Hotel of Ipoh is now AC Hotel. Managed by Marriott and owned by YTL, the hotel has been tastefully refurbished and the hotel retains it charms and plus points of having the hotel located so near the heart of Ipoh. "

"Clean room, noisy hallway as renovation was going on. No restaurant in the hotel."

"The room was very clean and had been recently painted - this was obvious due to the paint splashes on the floor and net curtains. It is also single glazing so even on the 11th floor outside noises can be heard. There is also no international power points or USB ports in the room but the staff were very helpful in getting an adapter for the room. The location is in a residential area so grab / taxi is needed to get to Ipoh’s points of interest. "

"Fantastic hotel. The decor was great and the staff were friendly."

"The hotel seems to be designed for couple getaways. As a solo business traveler I felt awkward and was given a room right by the check-in counter. The biggest issue I faced was at checkout when 4-5 staff descended on the room to 'check' it and a couple minutes later a young man came out waving the white bed-sheet showing me a blue marker stain! I travel a lot and I don't remember ever taking a marker to bed! They were trying to extract an extorted 'tip' I guess because as soon as I took a serious tone with the man at the desk and mentioned I will recount all this in a review, they started apologizing for the 'confusion.' Also, there was another room next to mine near the entrance lobby and there was a couple staying there. I could hear them talk late into the night, the soundproofing leaves much to be desired."

" In need of refurb"

"The room is spacious snd clean , the staff is excellent and helpful ."

"First room we were given the beds were unmade and there was still trash in the garbage bin. The bathroom had cockroaches in it and it wasn't given a clean vibe at all. We were then given a different room. However this room was having mold on the walls, as well as a smell of mold. We then left the hotel cancelling our stay, and the manager said if wishing for a refund go through Expedia through which I did, however management decided not to refund the situation and time we had wasted, and instead offered us a complimentary room, which we did not take."

"The bathroom was very tired with mouldy wallpaper and needed renovating. Bed was comfy and bedroom was spacious. Good air con and WiFi. The spa facilities were OK but Ivthought there was a swimming pool and actually it was only jacuzzi and plunge pool. Bit dark, again in need of a bit of a makeover. Steam and sauna too. Have to pay extra to use. Breakfast could do with more veggie options and some of the food had gone cold (buffet). Excellent location and lovely staff. "
