Mutiara Hotel, Johor Bahru

my family and i were looking forward to a 2-night 3-day relaxing stay at mutiara hotel, johor bahru. the hotel was easy enough to get to by taxi - not too far away from the new immigration building. i must say we did have a great time eating at both the coffeeshop and the chinese restaurant which served a halal menu including a scrumptous peking duck! we were a little disappointed with the in-room furniture. it looked old. the swimming pool didn't look too inviting either. needless to say, my year-old daughter didn't spend any time there, unfortunately. but we were impressed with the unobtrusive service overall. the shopping center next to it is another story altogether - huge disappointment. not much to induce shoppers. i'd say, we'll probably be back sometime in the not too distant future. it comes recommended to those who do not have too high of an expectation.

i think it is really value for money since the hotel is maintained nicely. the staffs are helpful. Although the external area, is not that good, but i feel it is different from person to person. Nothing the hotel management can control like the plaza next to it,full with people that looks weird to me.

good
