What a lovely hotel, staff were absolutely fantastic and so hello and friendly, early check in appreciated and our special request for a high floor noted and. Loved the pool and views and also the fact they have a water refill station to save on single use plastics and also the refillable toiletries (not single use small ones) excellent hotel in a good position. Highly recommended

Taiping is a blessed relief after the speed of KL. The pool is relaxing and it is only a 10 minute walk to the Taiping Gardens. I will definitely be back.

The hotel is overall good. It’s conveniently located and attached to a mall. The staff were very friendly and helpful. It’s just not clean to the standard I’m used to. Stains on the couch. Mouldy bathroom sink. Coffee station probably hasn’t ever been clean. Coffee stains everywhere. I had to clean the coffee station before I could use it. The bed was clean. I booked two rooms. One for my parents and one for myself. Both cost the same but both were not identical. One was smaller than the other. I was told they were both in the same category but that they were not the same. ?? Eventually they reassigned my parents to the same bigger room as mine.

A decent hotel. Rooms and bathroom were generous size however safe was non functional and couldn’t be fixed. although they offered to leave one on the floor for us this was not satisfactory. Grout in shower requires bleach but otherwise clean. One towel and one doona cover had a rip/hole so some upgrading is required. Overall quite adequate and centrally located and the staff were extremely friendly and helpful.

Spacious, well-appointed room but doona would be more suited to Arctic conditions, which may explain the air-con being set to 16 degrees. Even when adjusted to 25 deg., it was still too cold - a bit ridiculous for the Tropics and not very environmentally-friendly.
