Hotels near Surau Al-Hafiz, Johor Bahru

Love the people at the front desk, they are always so happy and friendly. Check-in took a bit longer than usual but the staff were very apologetic. I stayed in the Urban room at level 12 facing the highway and river. To my surprise it was rather quiet I can’t really hear the traffic. Morning breakfast at level 6 was pretty crowded. The next morning I just went down earlier and it was great. The girls at breakfast were always happy to welcome us… keep it up 👍

For a solo traveller, this space is small but good enough. Clean. They have hair dryer, toothbrush, towel and hangers. Hot n cold water, strong fixed showerhead. Very friendly receptionist. Would be good to provide slippers. And pillow can be better! Nearby nasi lemak hantu, starter cafe, waffle delight and mamalicious kueh are good!

It was fine for a day. There’s a lot of eateries af that stretch. Also theres malls nearby, super convenient. Also theres free snacks at the lobby and you can replenish your water too.

Quite a nice and cozy stay. Be warned that the link way bridge from CIQ to princess cove is unfinished, there’s no lift so my friend and I had to lug our luggage down and then up 3 sets of staircases at the construction area. It was very tiring. Also the room had cockroaches when we arrived but my friend was able to catch and kill them. The bathroom does feel grimy after a few days so I would have appreciated an option to pay extra for cleaning. However, the location was great. There’s a pool and gym, though the mall is unfinished it has Jaya Grocer, so my friend and I could cook in the apartment etc. though I’d recommended washing everything before use because there were some grimy stuff on the utensils. Grab rides are quite affordable to other places like cafes too, and there’s security guards. So all in all quite worth for the price.

Everyone in my group loved it. My kids loved it so much. Clean, spacious. We arrived late but they were very accommodating with the set up of the extra bed. My only gripe was there's no extra key card so while the kids were resting in the room, I had to ask for assistance from front desk to help me get into my room. N I ran alot of errands 😂 but the staff were very nice. Aircon wasn't very cold for a new hotel wish we could have increase the speed of the ceiling fan.

My always go to hotel at jb. Convenient location, clean room , comfortable bed. This time round they even upgraded me to executive room. As always this hotel makes us feel safe. And the hotel staffs are friendly and kind. Will come back again when I’m staying in jb.

Nothing to complaint about the location. Plenty of beauty services and food. Counter service is normal. Nothing to complaint nor praise. We bookes the premier room on level 27 in Tower 1. The lift take forever to come and due to that it is always crowded. The sink in the room is choked. Just a simple brush teeth session would cause the water level to keep rising to the brim of the sink. Wall paper is peeling on the bed head. Desk phone is covered with dust. Lots of patches on the room wall below the tv. Just wondering if it is so hard to fix all these unsightly areas to allow guest to have a very comfortable stay? We didnt bother to call the hotel to fix the sink since we are staying 1night. But cleaner would have noticed it during cleaning. There is also menses stain on the bedsheet. Is tiny spot but very noticeable on a white sheet. The table leg is spoilt. I am not sure if I would be back again. Maybe or maybe not.

You can walk to CIQ but takes around 8-10 minutes. Not covered. There's a swimming pool but according to my kids, it's very cold swimming in it, not sure if it's the current weather. So they are not ecstatic about it unlike other hotels we have been thru. The pool is not that clean either. But the gym is top notch. Breakfast top as well. The room is great and warm cookies were provided during check in. The hotel team gave my daughter a small cake for her birthday upon request. Kudos! Free AC charger (I got around 2.7kW) for EV car (6hrs) The good stuff definitely overshadows the minor weaknesses.

This was a staycation and we booked an executive twin with ‘2 large single beds’ as advertised, but the room was very small, so were the beds. Although rather well-appointed in terms of furnishings, there just isn’t quite enough space for 2 adults and a pre-teen child to roam. The tv is also smaller usual. There is no breakfast provided but the street that the hotel is located at has some options, but not where I would go for breakfast. The Mount Austin theme park is nearby, but if that’s where you’re heading, I’d assume you would like more space and comfort to chill out after an entire day of play.

I really nice spacious room, we stayed in 307, which is a one-bed room apartment, please note there are smaller rooms. this is really good if you are staying for a few days, large living room with an induction cooker, toaster, microwave, and fridge. They also included plates and bowls. for cooking equipment and glassware, you will need to contact housekeeping, i stayed only 2 nights so i didn't bother. one big pet peeve was that the dish provided was too big for the microwave, so please heat up your food in the containers before plating them. Both the microwave and fridge worked well, it made ice in around 2 to 3 hours. the shower was great, with constant temperature and good water pressure. the bedroom lacked a TV only the TV was in the living room, so that was a bummer, the room was also a bit noisy as i think there is a family of birds living in the air-con compressor so if you are a light sleeper, you want to give this a miss. The road outside can also get noisy at all hours. The nightlife is interesting, with quite a few bars and restaurants, and lots of motorized scooter rental stores, this does have quite a big issue with me, with alot of teens and kids zooming up and down the harbor at night, it does get dangerous for families with smaller kids. The selling point of this place is its proximity to Legoland, unfortunately, it is a tad hard to get a Grabcar (a rideshare service like Uber) because at the moment the area is not as busy as it was pre-covid. i see families waiting 30mins to an hour to get a car. If you drive, there is an underground carpark (complimentary). The most disappointing was the breakfast, not enough food, and they were unable to cope with the number of people. they struggled to fill coffee pots, juice dispensers, cut fruits, and bread. once something came out, it was gone in minutes. Overall, I would recommend this place for families, just skip the breakfast and make something in the room.
