Clean, quiet and great for a short get away. Perfect for solo traveler, business trip, families and couples who wants some quiet holiday.

We recently stayed at St. Giles Southkey Johor Bahru for four nights. The hotel is very popular, largely because it is directly connected to Mid Valley Southkey Mall, making shopping and dining extremely convenient. Breakfast can get quite busy and crowded, especially during peak hours. However, if you prefer a quieter experience, it’s better to go during the last 45 minutes before breakfast closes. The staff were efficient in replenishing food items promptly, even when demand was high. There were five coffee machines available, which helped to manage the crowd well and kept waiting times reasonable. The overall buffet spread was average—not exceptional, but sufficient. Housekeeping was satisfactory, with rooms maintained to a decent standard throughout the stay. One downside is the check-in time, which is after 3pm. This is slightly later than the typical industry standard in Malaysia and may be inconvenient for some travelers. Overall, it’s a solid and convenient hotel choice.

Helpful and kind front desk receptionists. Requested for the highest floor away from lift and traffic noises so they really gave me a nice unit facing city view, but the neighbour next door was quite noisy but that’s ok didn’t affect me much. Room was spacious but not clean, found strands on hair on the floor and in the bathroom. The bathroom floor wasn’t cleaned properly too. As someone who is a cleanliness freak, it really affected my stay. TV has both local and singaporean channels and can also connect to Netflix, but the wifi was quite weak and slow but the maintenance came to fix that. Room amenities such as floor slippers, towels and dental kits were provided, however I found a small stain on the bath towel but that’s ok as there was a spare. The Airbnb is close to many nearby eateries and within walking distance to KSL, which was what I appreciated. Overall, I had a pleasant stay and peaceful sleep. Will revisit again on my day off! Kudos to the front desk staff for excellent guest services! 😍

Enjoy this for a short stay with family and young toddlers. Stated check in at 3pm but when we checked in, room already available, probably it was a Friday. Staff are friendly & polite, with good service. We booked without breakfast because keen to try the foods around but I believe the breakfast also worth it if book together just around RM60 more for 3 pax.  Gym is big with almost everything in it! They have pool for adults to play, but no entry below 16 year old.  The only minus points is the Dino Waterpark within the hotel requires additional payment at RM20 per pax for those above 3 year old. It is not expensive but we thought everything were inclusive.  Location wise really convenient as you can get almost everything downstairs - even the groceries in Lotus supermarket!

I was very satisfied with my stay this time! I originally booked a queen room, but to my surprise and delight, the hotel thoughtfully upgraded me to two rooms for free. It was a wonderful surprise and truly touched me. The rooms were clean and tidy, and the space was very comfortable. The overall atmosphere was relaxing. The staff's service attitude was excellent, and they handled things efficiently, making the entire check-in process very smooth. This experience exceeded my expectations. I will definitely come back again if I have the chance and will also recommend it to my friends!

Mixed Experience – Good Service Recovery but Initial Handling Could Be Better I recently stayed at Holiday Villa Johor Bahru City Centre and had a mixed experience. For the first two nights, we suspected the room was not properly cleaned as both my husband and I experienced continuous sneezing throughout the stay. I reported this to the front desk after the first night, but no action was taken or escalated. Unfortunately, we had to endure a second uncomfortable night before I raised the issue again to the duty manager. I must commend the duty manager for her prompt and decisive action — she arranged an immediate room change, which made a significant difference. This level of service recovery was appreciated. However, it is unclear why the initial concern was not escalated earlier by the front desk, which could have prevented unnecessary discomfort. On a positive note, when I fell sick during the stay, the front desk staff were thoughtful enough to send porridge and warm water to my room — a kind gesture that I truly appreciated. The hotel’s location is very convenient, and the breakfast selection varies daily, which is a plus. A special mention to the egg station staff — they were consistently friendly and attentive, handling every request with a smile even during busy periods. Check-out was smooth and efficient. Overall, while there were some lapses in initial handling, the service recovery and certain staff members’ efforts stood out.

Overall the room is clean but dont expect the room is big. The only things surprised me is the breakfast , taste all is nice and more things to choose . If for short trip in JB , I will choose this hotel again because of price reasonable and service is good , staffs are all friendly.

This hotel is located in the heart of Johor Bahru, just a few minutes' walk from the customs checkpoint and the train station. There are plenty of restaurants and malls nearby, and Jonker Street is also very close. The room facilities are complete, and the large window offers an expansive view. The cleanliness is also good. However, prices in Johor Bahru are quite high for Malaysia. A hotel of this caliber without breakfast would likely be cheaper in other cities.

Hotel service and staff is excellent! Very spacious room with lesser crowd compared with st Giles at mid valley southkey. Only downside during my stay was that the jacuzzi was under maintenance and hence unable to use. Good gym equipment and nice afternoon tea menu! Definitely will visit again!

We arrived at 1pm and the unit was ready for check in which was awesome. During inspection of the unit found the flooring in the living room was broken and it would move if u stepped on it. This was simply covered by a carpet. Took a video and sent to their whatsapp but was not acknowledged. Then came the common toilet right beside the living room. Firstly had a very foul smell, the shower wasnt draining well and the bidet was broken and made my pants all wet when i turned it on. The smell got worse throughout our stay and we just choose not to use the common toilet at all. They only give 1 access card but u can request one more from the lobby. But makesure ask them if the card can be used for carpark entrance. After check out we left our bags at the lobby and was chrged rm10/bag for storage while we went last minute shopping. Oh also u cant access the mall after 10pm. So if youre taking a cab makesure u drop off at the residents instead of mall entrance
