Excellent! [Highly Recommended] AC Hotel Ipoh – A Comfortable Choice You'll Love After Staying!
My recent trip to Ipoh included a stay at AC Hotel by Marriott Ipoh, and the overall experience was so satisfying that I just had to share it!
✅ Super Convenient Location
Right in the heart of Ipoh, very close to the airport (seriously, it's close!). It's quick to get to Lost World, Old Town, and all the major food areas. There's also an AEON Mall nearby, perfect for late-night snacks and shopping.
✅ Comfortable and Clean Rooms
The room size was decent, the bed was very comfortable, and you could choose your pillow (just call room service for different firmness options). The bathroom was clean, water pressure was good, and the overall design was simple yet tasteful.
✅ Attentive Service
The front desk and staff were all very friendly, and check-in/out was efficient. I even checked in smoothly in the early morning, and they helped arrange a parking spot.
✅ Practical Facilities
There's a gym, a swimming pool (not huge, but good enough for relaxing), and a lounge for a drink. The buffet breakfast offers a good selection, especially the Nasi Lemak and Kaya Toast – delicious!
✅ Great Value for Money
For a Marriott brand hotel, the price is reasonable and often cheaper than comparable hotels in Kuala Lumpur. It's suitable for both business and family travel.
📌 A Small Tip
The hotel doesn't have its own large parking lot, but there's a paid parking lot right next door (the hotel has a partnership, so remember to ask about discounts). Also, the soundproofing in the rooms is just average, so I'd recommend staying on a higher floor.
💬 Summary:
Clean, convenient, great service, and fair prices – I'll definitely choose AC Hotel again on my next visit to Ipoh!
The location is great, the front desk staff are very friendly, and there is an elevator to go upstairs. Mineral water and bread are provided for the guests. The room space is quite adequate, and the bed is very comfortable—I slept very well. The only downside is that my room was quite close to the elevator, and the soundproofing isn't great. I often heard the sound of the elevator doors opening and closing in the morning while I was sleeping. Everything else was excellent.
The hotel's exterior is new and fresh, and the room is bright and comfortable with a modern, 'cyber' design. The toilet in the bathroom is state-of-the-art, and the in-room electronic system is very convenient to use. The lobby staff were all smiles, attentive, and friendly. The hotel is located near the city center, less than a ten-minute drive away, which is very convenient. For Ipoh, Malaysia, this hotel is definitely a five-star experience. Highly recommended!
We stayed one night at Bedrock Hotel Ipoh and had a very pleasant experience. The room was very nice and huge, with plenty of space and everything we needed. It was clean, comfortable and quiet.
The staff were super friendly and welcoming, which made the stay even better. The location is convenient for exploring Ipoh and the Old Town area.
The only small downside was the breakfast, which was just so-so. It was fine, but not the highlight of the stay.
Overall, everything else was perfect and we would definitely stay here again.
I booked a 3 bedroom suite horizon view and they upgraded me to one with lake view which was great! The unit has a nice view of the limestone hills and the lake which is surrounding the hotel.
Suite is clean and everything functions well. There’s a water filter machine providing hot and cold water which is a great sustainable element, not using plastic water bottles in their suites.
Breakfast buffet spread is also good with both western and local style dishes.
Booked a room here to stay close to family in the area, and it was exactly what I needed. It’s a straightforward hotel with all the essential amenities. The room was clean, the room service was prompt, and the reception team was exceptionally friendly and helpful. Great choice if you’re looking for a hassle-free, ”basics done right” experience.
It was an alright stay. Bathroom is really spacious, bedroom is weirdly shaped due to being a corner unit but acceptable. Basic bathroom amenities are there, limited TV channels. Lift and the entire of 2nd floor and room did smell of cigarettes when I checked in, and it was a bit off putting. I try not to look too much into the details such as peeling wallpapers and A/C that doesn't work as regularly as it should (sometimes cold, most of the time just OK despite no changes in the temperature settings).
Location was superb. It's a short drive to pretty much everywhere I need to access during my business trip, so that's a plus. For it's price, I can't complain much. But if I'm particular, topping up a little bit more could get me a more recently renovated hotel (C***tel) with equally accessible location.
The place is near to the port. The staff are helpful and friendly. The breakfast option very less. The room is very spacious like suite but the cleanliness need to improve. The pool is big and clean.
Location: The hotel is quite far from the city and food areas. If you plan to dine outside, you will need to drive about 20 km to Sri Manjung, where AEON Mall, restaurants, and a
McDonald’s are located. The nearest petrol station is also in that area.
Cleanliness: Excellent. Everything is clean and well maintained.
Service: Top notch and very attentive. Especially during the breakfast buffet over the long weekend, the turnaround time was efficient and well managed.
Facilities: As advertised and meet expectations. The Room very spacious for two person. The Makan Kitchen is currently being expanded.
Overall: A very comfortable stay at DoubleTree by Hilton Damai Laut.
Our first visit to the resort. A wonderful place to celebrate our anniversary. A quiet place to relax and enjoy without noisy children running around. Not too many guest which is very good. Don't feel crowded. Service is good. Buggy service is fast response. Best is the private pool and hotspring water.
Fine dinning is wonderful inside a cave. Breakfast is good. Freshly cooked only when you order and is unlimited. Only issue is location which you need to get transport if going outside. Sunway is building a big shopping mall just outside but only ready in 2028. You also get complimentary entry to Sunworld theme park if you join and follow the trekking from resort to back of Sunworld. A short walk through the forest. Will definitely come back again.

Great
We had a lovely stay at DoubleTree by Hilton Damai Laut 🤍 The resort is peaceful and surrounded by nature perfect for a short family getaway to unwind from city life. The rooms were spacious, clean and comfortable, and waking up to the greenery and sea view was truly refreshing. What we enjoyed most was how kid-friendly the resort is. The kids had so much fun with the pools and outdoor spaces, and we could actually relax knowing they were happy and occupied. Breakfast was good with a decent variety, and the staff were consistently warm, polite, and helpful throughout our stay. Overall, it was a relaxing and enjoyable experience for both adults and kids. A great choice for families looking for a calm beach resort vibe. We’ll definitely consider coming back
Service was excellent. The resort was really beautiful and peaceful. You really feel like you're not even in Malaysia at all! The breakfast was really good! Had a wide selection of western and local delights. And it's ala carte buffet so they cook it whenever you order! Drinks are complimentary in your room. Jeff cellar was amazing but do note there's a dress code and it's set meal and dining will take 2.5hrs. Surprising I was not bitten by any mosquitoes. But the spring water in the room was not hot enough... the pool was a little dirty which I feel can be improved... overall though a very nice experience and will definitely come back again!
Staying in Pangkor Laut Resort was truly memorable. The resort was well-maintained and beautifully landscaped. The combination of luxury and nature was what drew me to come here and spend a short weekend getaway. It offers a serene environment to relax on a private island and even take on a little adventure such as tracking through a rainforest. Overall I find Pangkor Laut Resort, a great place to unwind, destress and enjoy nature. If you are looking for extreme sports, crowds and a place to stimulate your senses, Pangkor Laut Resort is not for you. And that is why I love my stay here, nothing but a piece of paradise, calm surroundings and pampering oneself.
We stayed here 8 years ago, when the hotel was formerly named The Shyuen. AC Marriot really takes it to the next level, when contemporary and modern meets as one. I am going to rate it based on the category: Room (5/5) The room size is neat, not too big, not too small. Comfortable for our little family. Hotel Lobby (4/5) Feeling relaxed and contented. It's just a bit awkward when there are too many stairs to go up and down a lot. Maybe. Facilities (3/5) The pool was great. The gym was also good. Loved the site of the penthouse and pavilion with the decorating landscape of the garden wedding theme. Some of the facilities are also not yet open due to being under construction. Parking (4/5) It can be quite challenging, especially reaching the turning ramp to the basement level. Hospitality (3/5) There are pros and cons here. Praised to Ms. Jagjeet for attending us throughout the pre checkin process. I called her to confirm and request the two rooms to be side by side, and also got windows. She briefed us smoothly. Only that time when we reached the hotel for checked in. Ms Yi Ying attended us at the counter. She said the deposit amounted to RM400 to be paid by card and continued saying the deposit would be returned directly after checking out the hotel. But after checking out, they say they would have to wait for 7 to 14 days period. We called the manager and they said to comeback to us soon.
The hotel was very convenient to those who have family coz have food court next to the hotel and also a shopping mall opposite. 10 - 15 mins drive to Lake Garden.
Charming Boutique Stay in the Heart of Ipoh. A lovely boutique hotel beautifully furnished and centrally located in Ipoh. We especially enjoyed the cozy lobby and its charming Art Deco touches. Rooms are limited, so it’s best to book early, particularly during holidays and festive seasons. We stayed in a duplex room, which was spacious, clean, and very comfortable. The room was well-equipped with thoughtful amenities, including a hair dryer, slippers, a filtered water dispenser, a Nespresso coffee machine, and disposable toiletries—more than what you’d typically expect from many hotels. Breakfast was very decent, with made-to-order options such as Western dishes or local nasi lemak. There are also plenty of local coffee shops and eateries nearby if you’d like to explore other breakfast choices. The hotel’s location is a major plus. It’s within walking distance of popular Ipoh attractions like Concubine Lane, Memory Lane Market, and Mural Art’s Lane, as well as the famous Lao Wang beansprout chicken. There are also numerous food options around, and it’s just across from Palo 101, a trendy spot popular with youngsters and a regular venue for New Year’s countdown celebrations. We enjoyed our stay. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a comfortable and stylish stay in Ipoh.
