Traveling to Malaysia? Find Mersing hotels

it's more or less a resort as commonly described. it has a good position and a great view (i think it's the best sleeping alternative in the neighborhood, compared to the mersing in-town hotels). there are several bungalows (some of them being newer) and a main building with 1 floor. unfortunately we went in a rainy period and the feeling was desolating. everything was wet and the bungalows were humid and smelly. we wanted to change our reservation for the newer ones (which were more expensive) and they asked us to pay the difference which i found very normal. but when we finally opted for a regular room on the upper floor of the main building (which was at least dry, but more cheaper) they were not happy with returning the money. at the end they offered us 2 meals instead of the price difference, which i also found to be ok as the food was good. the rooms are not in the best condition and the furniture is quite old. they are relatively clean. the staff were very friendly and helpful. from the balcony you have a great view but unfortunately you can't take a swim in the sea as the water is muddy, due to the river that is flowing nearby. i think the better option is to take the ferry from mersing to the closest islands. we didn't as it was raining all over the clock and there was no available schedule. for an alternative you have a small pool in the garden. as i think it's common for malaysia, you can drive and park the car in front of your bungalow. although the conditions were far from being the best the overall experience was very interesting as we could see a lot of wild monkeys in the trees, exotic birds flying by and a lot of lizzards from the smaller ones to a big 1.5 m one. it was a safari-like experience.

Me and my 14 year old son arrvived after midnight to Timotel by bus from Kuala Lumpur on a Sunday night. We had reserved the rooms via Agoda the previuos evening. We were immediately greeted and got our keys to the room right away. Suddenly my son noticed he had forgotten his phone in the bus... The friendly and helpful lady in the reception drow us with her own car back to the station right away and helped us leave messages to the bus company to notify them we need to get back into the bus early morning at the latest to retrieve the phone. She then organized a driver for us for the morning to drive us and our luggage via the bus station (where we fortunately found the phone still on the seat in the bus) to the harbour. There the driver made sure we were at the right check in gate for our ferry to Tioman. Unfortunately all shipping traffic was cancelled some half an hour later because of severe winds and dangerously high waves (grade 3). The forecast said bad weather for the next 3 days so we decided to leave Mersing again by bus. As there were no buses until late afternoon we spent most of the rest of the day in the lobby of Timotel where they once again took good care of us. Wifi worked fine too. I highly recommed Timotel for anyone needing to spend the night in Mersing brfore going to Tioman Island.

Convenient location. Few minutes walking distance to mersing jetty. There are Chinese restaurant and fruit shop downstairs. Supermarket is just few minutes away. The hotel provides information about Tioman ferry schedule and provides transport to send customers to jetty at according time. Although it is a short distance, we felt it was vry helpful because we needed to arrived the jetty at 5am. Maybe other hotels in Mersing provide similar transportation, i am not sure.

Went with family and another friend and her family. We travelled from JB,almost two hours drive, some heavy traffic along the way. Follow the road to Mersing, till we reached the sign board and turned to right and entered to a narrow country road, another 25 km before we reached this hotel and seaside.The scenery is quite nice along the narrow country road, a lot of natural things like trees and hills. The hotel look very new and clean, the staff welcomed us and answered our questions posted. Not many customers that night because it was the Hari Raya eve. We had barbecue just outside our hotel room, a few cats were with us. Had a good rest that night, room condition very good, up to our expectation. Thinking of seeing sun rise the next day; unfortunately, it was a cloudy morning, only partial sunrise we saw. Children played at the seaside and swimming pool and we checked out at noon. I think I will visit this place again, basically, it is very relax, clean and nice...

A typical basic rural Asian hotel. Nothing fancy, though there is a swimming pool. Located about a mile outside Mersing Centre it is on the edge of town and very quiet. A good choice if you need to spend a night in Mersing because your transport arrangements do not tie in with the ferry times to Tioman. The taxi fare to the jetty was 10 or 12 Ringgits. In town taxis can be difficult to find, certainly later in the evening. It is always worth checking the bus station as some taxis wait there. Or make sure you have a phone number for a cab. I would certainly use the hotel again if needed when travelling to Tioman.

We stopped here for one night on the way to Tioman and on the way back. This newly renovated hotel (I think it used to be called the Mersing Hotel) provided us with very clean rooms, comfy beds, air con, and wifi. Our room was a little on the smaller side (we booked a twin), but we still managed to fit our travel cot in. No breakfast is provided, but there are a few places nearby you could pick something up (the bus station has a few places that were very cheap). They also have a fridge where you could store your food drinks near reception, as well as free hot and cold drinking water. They provided a free shuttle to the ferry, which included the driver coming inside and guiding us through the registration and parks tax counters at the ferry station. We were lucky enough to spot the driver again when we got off the ferry on our return trip, so were able to get a lift back to the hotel. I highly recommend this place if you are making a stop in Mersing on your travels.

The unit is new furnished and spacious. The bedroom, bedsheet, bathroom, towels all are very clean (this is really my concern while booking a place). We spent most of the time in living room since we were traveling in group and it was great place to chill and chat after island hopping. The host, Mandy was really warm and helpful. She provided everything we needed and recommended some places to visit in Mersing. After all, I really love this place! It worth the price and I could not find any better place to stay in Mersing! But since this place is still new, you have to scroll down the hotel list to find it.

i have stayed for 3 nights in this resort, it has "kampong"/traditional malay village style bungalow. the staff are very friendly and attentive on everything we need. the food is simply awesome (we took the full board package). the beach is good, there is small fishes around, and soft sands, the only backdraw is sandflies, which bite once in a while. beach activities need to rely on next door resort (i.e. d'coconut, mirage), but i heard from few stayer, aseania is the best in the area comparing the 3 resorts. overall, we enjoyed the stay in this hotel, even my wife and daughter already asking to return. i will consider returning for my future trips.

The rooms are clean and bug free, which is saying a lot in the port town of Mersing. The prices are reasonable and the street traffic is not so loud at night. Nice perk: Beers sold downstairs so you can sit at a table overlooking the street while on your laptop with free Wi-Fi and look up things to do in Tioman, which of course is the only reason you would overnight in Mersing. Basic but decent accommodation if you're stuck for a night in Mersing like I was. Location is hard to miss when you arrive in Mersing, and everything is less than a 10 minutes walk away.

. It was clean and spacious. The host had orientated us on the facilities and warned us about the two rooms over at the side that was along side the road, stating that it would be noisy. This house was situated at a shophouse and required four flights of stairs. So if you have an elderly, you may want to consider the climb for the elderly. There is free Wi-Fi provided by the host. The Mersing ferry terminal is just about 10-15mins walk away. There are various restaurants around the house. One downside was the aircon in two of the rooms which had hot air despite on cool mode. Otherwise it was splendid staying for a day.

We arrived at the Mersing Jetty terminal from Tioman island at about 1 pm ON 15th September,2014 and we are to catch Transsional Bus for Kula Lumpur (KL)from Bus terminal at 10 am on the next day.We walked from the Jetty terminal with luggage as every taxi driver said is is too near.On our arrival at the hotel we were given the Room B-2.Hotel has no lift facility and hotel staff asked us to carry luggage by ourself to the room. How ever on much request one staff carried luggage to the room.Hotel has free WIFI.Taxi fare from hotel to Mersing Bus terminal is 10RM.In the Bus terminal we find a big Vegitable market and Non Veg Market.There is one 2RM shop near the hotel which is intresting.In the shop you will find every thing on 2RM each.However in the entire night we find noice from the road.In front of the hotel there is a Seven Eleven shop opens for 24 hours.Mersing is a very good place, we liked it

House electrical sockets are mostly with built-in-USB, so one don't have to worry if you left your charger behind, just make sure you have your cable with you. Living hall was especially comfortable with the ceiling lighting. Towels are all clean and bathroom as well clean and comfortable. If you are in a group and plan to stay in a hotel, I shall highly recommend this home stay instead. Happy Holiday~!
