4-Star Hotels in Pahang, Malaysia

This was our second stay at the hotel, and the experience was just okay. The kids’ pool and city view were nice, but the service was poor. We had a frightening experience when we were stuck in the lift for 25–30 minutes. The lift seems old and not well maintained. I hope the hotel takes this seriously and ensures guest safety so others do not face the same situation. We also requested a small anniversary gesture—a heart towel design on the bed—a week before check-in, but it was not arranged due to a lack of staff. This was disappointing, as the request was made well in advance.

Positives - Fast check in & out process - 24/7 gym access - Surau is available - Excellent breakfast* - Strategic location - Decent swimming pool *I've been to many hotels, from basic to super luxurious & it's hard to find any that serve a decent Nasi Lemak but here (although not great) still i'd say is the best among other hotels that i've stayed at previously Negative - Just one. The qibla direction within the room is hidden. If any muslim guests are wondering where it is, it's in the drawer at the door where the laundry bag & stuffs are at (this is the first time EVER that i find it situated at such an awkward place 😆) This seems trivial but please consider putting it where it's easily visible (like the rest of the hotels). Because i've spent quite some time searching for it, only to find it when i was already about to check out from the hotel. Luckily i prayed at the surau during my stay. Overall 9/10

Perfect stay. I’ll be returning for sure. The room was spotless, the staff were welcoming, food was good and every detail made my stay comfortable.

They moved towards sustainability road hence they will not provide free mineral water bottles, toothbrushes and slippers in the room. You will need to request it if you really need it. Room is pretty basic, cleanliness is average. Breakfast provided is not the buffet type, it’s the set dine at the coffee shop. If you want buffet, need to add RM7/person/day. Food is not specifically good.

Although the hotel is a bit old, it offers great value for money. The beach is beautiful, the environment is relaxing, and everything is clean and well maintained. I truly enjoyed my stay here and will definitely come back again!”

We had such a pleasant family getaway at Colmar Tropicale with our two little ones. The whole experience was smooth and enjoyable from the moment we checked in. The staff were friendly and helpful, especially when it came to assisting us with bags and stroller access — something we truly appreciate as parents of two babies! The French-inspired village is beautiful and peaceful, perfect for slow family walks and photos. Our room was clean, spacious enough for the babies’ essentials, and comfortable for all of us. We also loved how calm the environment was, making nap times easy.

Situated in the heart of Pekan city, this hotel offers comfortable and ambience stay at affordable price. The room is equipped with iron, ironing board,bathtub, safe box, refrigator and working space (business table and chair). Outside facilities including swimming pools (adult, kids) and playground. Free parking is provided. Additional cost: RM 35 for breakfast buffet (adults)

Loved the stay, nice hotel, nice ambience, but hope i checked in earlier cause we ended up getting 2 single bed and not king bed because no available rooms anymore :((( breakfast buffet was okay, the spaghetti, cereal and porridge needs improvement, the others are delicious especially the homemade peanut butter, to die for!!! Loved it, wish I could take it home with me. Overall, it’s a nice stay.

I stayed 1 night at Grand Darul Makmur Hotel Kuantan during a business trip. The hotel and room size are quite spacious, which was comfortable. The room does look a little old, but overall still fine for a short stay. Breakfast buffet starts at 7am with plenty of food choices, though the taste was just average. By the way, even if you book and pay through Trip.com, you’ll still need to pay a small tax directly to the hotel — in my case, it was RM3. Overall, a decent stay for business purposes.

A very comfortable stay. The view from the room is absolutely beautiful (you can see the tide coming in and going out 😍). The room amenities are comprehensive and well-equipped 👍 10 stars.
