Find Hotels in Pantai Remis, Malaysia

Pantai Remis is a small town within an hour's slow drive from Lumut and Sitiawan. Lam Seng Hotel is one of two family-owned hotels in this town. The staff at this hotel do an excellent job housekeeping and they are very kind, graceful hosts to their guests. The power went off across the whole of Pantai Remis one afternoon during my stay. The front office staff called me on the phone and addressed me by name (only the better 5-star hotels bother to do this, these days) to let me know power was down. When I went downstairs to wait in the lobby for power to be restored, the same staff turned on the aircon to keep me cool (they had a genset to power the lobby and some lights). My room was simply furnished but spotless. Sheets on the comfortable bed were changed every day (I stayed three nights). It came with ASTRO service to a few channels including Aljazeera, HBO and several Indian-language channels. The hotel is easy to spot from the main road. There is a big signboard on the roof that is lighted at night. After entering Pantai Remis town proceed along the main road to the main town mosque with a tall minaret; across the road is the smallish Magistrate Court, and beside the courthouse is the hotel -- the perfect abode for lawyers if you have an appearance to make here. My basic double room had an open shower in the bathroom which meant the whole bathroom floor gets wet after each shower; the deluxe rooms have bathtubs which I assume means you will still have a dry floor after your shower. My room was also equipped with a hot-water kettle but the hotel does not provide satchels of beverages, so you will have to bring your own "3-in-1". There is a parking lot in front of the hotel that also fronts a short row of terrace houses. This lot is patrolled by a pack of feral dogs at night. Lam Seng Hotel is the perfect spot for a restful night if you ever find yourself having to spend a night in tranquil Pantai Remis.
