Average hotel with good size rooms. Need update
A reasonable hotel in the town centre with lots of restaurants and convenient stores nearby. Seems to do a lot of bus tour business. Room in bed are good but furnishings dated, and common areas are dingy.

My regular hotel stay in Ipoh.
Stayed here numerous times. There's free multistorey parking as well as open air one behind hotel. Stayed Junior Suite a few times and it's nice with a sitting room with sofas and a tv plus views of the distance mountains. Check-ins are a breeze. Rooms are clean with adequate lightings.

Ipoh Hotel
Fully renovated and good air conditioning.
Delicious breakfast- curry noodle and good range of continental and local options. However pillowcases too soft and may have to go for neck and head massage just 1 min walking distance.. ha ha

Breakfast included was good. Gym was in the basement, no AC - too hot and humid. Staff were nice.
