What guests think

At Z HOTEL, guests consistently highlight a central, walkable location near CIQ, malls, and night markets, generally clean and spacious rooms, and friendly, helpful staff, with several appreciating strong security measures like keycard-access lifts and visible CCTV.

Recurring downsides are night-time noise from nearby streets and markets and weak soundproofing. Some guests note maintenance or comfort issues such as firm pillows or beds, occasional dusty or worn fixtures, and air-conditioning that is not consistently cold; Wi-Fi reliability also varies. Overall, expect a convenient base with roomy interiors, best for travellers who can tolerate city noise.

窓からはシンガポールが見えます。ホテルは広々としていて、アメニティなど、とてもオシャレです。スタッフさんもフレンドリーで、朝食や夕食を食べるお店を聞くと、親切に教えてくれました。ジョホールバルからシンガポールへの移動のための宿泊でしたが、とても快適でした。

This was my first time staying in Z-Hotel. You will feel safe with their CCTV and need card to excess in the lift. The staffs are extremely Friendly with smiling face. If you need supper just next to it. There are few coffee shops serving nice foods. Hotel room are spacious with nice aircon. Will be back here again.

The location was just 5mins away from City Square Mall and checking in was a breeze. Security was was good. You need a card to enter the hotel as well as activate the lift. I saw the staff cleaning the lift twice on 2 days I was there. I had a free upgrade and the room was very big. The aircon and ceiling fan help cool the room down. The wifi was strong and everything worked. The towels were clean. The bathroom was a little worn down but was generally clean. I would stay again if I was there

For the price paid for , expected it to be better. It’s more like a service apartment, no restaurant and room service too. For late check in, no food is available within the hotel, however, there are local eateries around. There is also a night market 2 minutes away (not sure if it’s there for good or just a certain period). Overall, not too bad :)

There was a power outage for an hour in the morning and no information was communicated to the guests. Lifts were not working during the power outage which made it difficult for guests staying on higher floors to leave the hotel. No compensation was offered. Air-conditioning is not well maintained and does not function well which could explain the need for ceiling fans in the rooms. Carpeted floors are not clean. Room and shower amenities are basic but suffices. All said, one can argue it is acceptable for the price point of this property.

The room is spacious however, the necessities like the tissue box was dusty. The provided disposable coffee stirrer was stained as well. As for the toilet, shower area was quite small and squeezy. The main toilet door has white stains.

Very nice & modern hotel with a pretty comfy bed ! However the toilet had a few flies and was abit rusty. The aircon isn’t that cold but there’s a fan to make up for it. Amenities such as dental kit and shower gel were provided which is great 👌 Lastly, at night it can be very noisy due to poor soundproofing. There’s a police station opposite and the siren kept ringing non stop 😔😔

This is a clean hotel, with a comfy bed in a top location. We’d never been to Johor Bahru before, but were told the Meldrum Walk Street Foods and the Bazar JB were cool to see. Because of the potential for rain, we wanted to be super close. This location was great! We could walk to all the sites. The staff were very friendly, giving great suggestions.

This hotel was near the night market which was great. My friend and I both had itchy skin though, not sure if because bed linen wasn't clean. Our floor was supposed to be a non-smoking floor but in the morning, we could smell tobacco drifting in from the doorway area. Overall comfortable and satisfactory stay.
