Find hotels in ZON Mall and Department Store

Integrated with shopping mall is the greatest advantage of this hotel, supported by alot of restaurants, tesco hypermarket and department store .Prepared for the worst that check in and out were long (as commented by some people) but that not happened. Kids also happy in the dinosaur pool which just opened in July13, 50% disc for hotel guest. International breakfast is also available and guest got 20% disc. Cabs were also easy to be accessed. Negative point for the triple superior room that we took was considered not spacious.

The hotel is walking distance away from the City Square shopping mall and the customs to Singapore, which was the main reason why we booked a stay there. But the walk from the shopping mall to the hotel isn't smooth, especially at night. Staff members were polite, but when the WiFi broke down, they couldn't give any proper assurance about how they will try their best to fix it. Well, I'm just being picky here and I don't mind staying there again actually. In terms of cleanliness and decor, some travellers have made complaints, but I think it's quite decent to be honest.

Location - in front of Komtar and JBCC. Lots of eateries, department stores and shops. Room - big enough with 4 small kids (under 9 years old). Highlights; - welcome drinks during check-ins - booklet for kids to claim stamps and claim their ice-cream while parents do the check-ins - delicious Asian (mainly Thai and Vietnam cuisine) restaurant, Amaya at the Lobby. Order and they will deliver to your room. - Hotel manager and staff very attentive and full of smiles. My go-to hotel for my many visits to JB after this !

having stayed in about 3 other hotels in jb city, i must say new york hotel is really best so far. rooms are nicely decorated, clean and cosy. bed is nice. breakfast buffet spread is quite good with local cuisine as well as western. previous hotels i stayed merely had just rice and noodles for breakfast. pricing is quite affordable for the standard. location is good as it is really near to ksl city mall and not too far off city square. parking is complimentary up to 2 parking tickets per room at least for my triple delux room, not certain for the others.

Worth every cent paid for the hotel! We put up in the Executive Straits View room and we were awed by everything about the hotel. Their service start from the door. Friendly welcome. Great front office staff.. clean rooms with crisp and fresh smelling bedsheets. And a view overlooking Singapore. Best stay over in JB. Good spread of buffet for breakfast though they could improve slightly here. There is a Continental spread as well as Local dishes like nasi lemak and mee hoon. They had bacon but that was beef. Maybe they could change it to Turkey Bacon so that everyone could have it but it doesnt really bother. Its slightly away from the heart of town so if you're there on weekends they have a shuttle service to and fro City Square Mall and J.P.O. Taxis are easy. Just ask the concierge and they will get it for you at no extra charge. I don't know about others but if I go to JB for a vacation again my hotel is decided. Thistle JB.

My kiddos were disappointed when they saw the exterior of the hotel which looks quite old and worn. But I thought that it’s fine and comforted them that the price was really low at $59.95 for a superior room plus it was just a one night stay. However, the moment we alighted from the car, we were pleasantly surprised. A polite and friendly bellboy immediately helped us with our luggage and guided us to the check-in counter. As we entered the front door, the interior of the hotel was a huge contrast from the exterior and it looked really clean, nice and well-maintained. We felt reassured that the rooms will definitely be great as well! From far as we were walking towards the check-in counter, the frontline staff greeted us with a huge warm smile and the best part was, he upgraded us for free to an Executive Club room. The bellboy guided us to our room. As expected, the room was wonderful! It was clean, had a large sleeping area with huge toilet and bathtub, and came with all the necessary amenities. The in-house food order is available 24 hours (a plus point for my greedy family!). We ordered a plate of Hokkien mee for supper which costs MYR33.00. In comparison to other 3-4 star hotels, I’d say the price is reasonable. We took 6 Carlsberg beers at lobby lounge which costs around MYR138.00. It’s located just right beside Holiday Plaza, and a 5-10mins walk to KSL mall, which is bearable if it’s not raining. Lots of small shops and eateries around the area. My kiddos were quite reluctant when we had to check-out and even said we should come back here. In fact, this review has been largely based on their review as we have tried a few hotels around KSL city mall and this is the first they actually requested for return. That goes to show how pleased they (+me) were.

The hotel is situated near JBCIQ. Very near shopping malls and bus stations. There are convenience store & restaurants infront of the hotel. We booked a room in the 26th floor so we had access to the Executive Lounge. My booking did not include breakfast,but in the Executive Lounge there's a small breakfast buffet, free drinks the whole day and cocktails (dinner for us because they also have rice) from 6-8pm. So it's really worth your money. You can walk from JBCIQ to the hotel, around 15minutes, the only problem is the on-going construction of the road at the back of Komtar mall, there's no pedestrian lane or a stop light, and so you are forced to ride a taxi for your safety-only RM8. Everything in the hotel is great, and unlike in other hotels, the staff here do not wait for you to give them a tip. And after a tiring day at Legoland, Doubletree made our stay in johor relaxing. We'll definitely stay here again if ever we visit johor.

Stayed for a night in their one bedroom, it was beyond my expectation and far best stay so far in Johor Bahru. Apartment is newly opened. The parking was quite safe and I can assure that - especially for Singaporeans who have second thoughts on parking their motorbikes in Johor Bahru. The security guards were very attentive, seen them doing round checks in the premises. The check in was swift and the rooms are really clean and comfortable. Check in time was at 3pm but we checked in way earlier around 2pm. Was issued a room key however it was not really ready when we were outside our room. Waited for 10 minutes to be in the room but it is fine for me. Location is good for solo travellers too as the hotel was just a walking distance to Komtar JBCC and City Square. There’s 7-11 convenient store just right at the hotel lobby in case you need to get something urgently. Now, the cons about the apartment was the parking you have to pay on your own. (It comes with a price I guess) And the major turn off - their housekeeper was very rude. Knocked the door several times at 10:45AM to tell us to check out when we clearly knew the check out time was 12PM. Leave that alone, the housekeeper repeatedly knocked the door again at 12PM SHARP. How intense was that. I dont remember requesting the front desk to get someone for my wake up call. She was also rude when we asked the other housekeeper to confirm the check out time. She gave us her unpleasant death stare and walked away when the other housekeeper was apologizing on her behalf. Very rude and unprofessional. I hope the management can look into this matter. Other than that, theres nothing much to point out. Will still give the 5 star rating!

I remember when I want to book this hotel and my mom said don't trust the photo because we might get different and worse than the pictures displayed. But little did we know that the hotel is actually pretty good. The room is spacious, very clean, nice view, friendly staff and the room smells so good when we enter. You can park your car outside the hotel with a guard on the watch. Also there is 7-11 store beside the hotel in case you wanna grab anything in the middle of the night. I will definitely come back here when I visit JB.

I travel to JB once a month for a short getaway, n GBW is the perfect hotel for me in terms of: 1) The rooms are big n spacious; even for the lowest category room, Deluxe. My fav is the studio room (and executive - HUGE!) 2) Room rates are very reasonably priced (for their spacious rooms) 3) The hotel staff are very friendly and patient and are always there to assist. 4) The hotel lobby (next to the recep desk) has a convenience store! Drinks, snacks, toiletries/basic necessities, common medications (panadol, meds for stomach upset, backache patch, etc.), cigarettes (smokers are in luck! ;) Lol!), etc.. 5) Location is pretty close to CIQ 1 and city square mall - Book a grab car n it takes like about 5 mins or less, provided no heavy traffic. The rooms i stayed previously, are clean, but furnitures are pretty dated already - it doesnt bother me much though. Because i'd rather stay in an accomodation with dated furnitures (but clean rooms), than with new furnitures but in a shoebox-sized hotel room -- Yea, size matters afterall! (at least to me so long rooms are clean). I read a few (guest) reviews of complaints; nitpicking about old furnitures + this n that. For short stay nitpickers on short stays, prepare to fork out much more for higher room rates if GBW were to do so. Overall, will i book n stay in this hotel (yet) again? Of course! :) (i extended my stay of 2 more nights this trip... Im comfortable here n dont wish to go home yet. Haha!) Cheerios, Guest ms A (room 1714 n 151X) PS: My so-dear fellow s'porean mates, dont so fussy lah.. If rates high, complain; Room a bit dirty, complain; Check-in a bit slow, complain; Breakfast spread, (also) complain! Kiasi, kiasu n simi pun kia. Wa kia boh lui nia. So, we just chill a lil n take a breather hor. :)

Staffs here are really friendly and efficient, especially the male Indian staff! He always try to engage guests with small talks which is a really nice gesture :). Check in and check out process was also a breeze and staffs never fail to greet you with a smile. Belllo is also strategically located in JB Sentral. It'll only take about 5 minutes by foot to City Square Mall and Bazar Karat. There are also lots of famous cafes and shisha places around the vicinity. Do try out Restoran Ya Wang for their herbal duck! Was also pleasantly surprised to see a security guard guarding the hotel lobby. You know you'll be safe in the hotel when the front door is always locked and guarded. The security guard will also check with you your room number for safety purposes. For the price that I've paid, I must say that I'm impressed by the room. Bed was really comfortable, wifi signals were good, room was kept clean and shower pressure was strong. Hot showers, towels, dental kits, shower caps, bottled waters, safe box and kettle was provided. The deluxe room had a window that faces the corridor, but no big deal as it can be easily covered with the black out curtain. My only complaint of the room is that the soundproofing is quite bad to the extent that I was woken up several times by other guests along the corridor. Light sleepers do take note! Other than that, I'm more than pleased about this hotel. Even though it's rated a 3 stars hotel, my experience with Belllo felt more like a 4 stars. Would surely return to Belllo (and book better room) the next time I come to JB. Thanks Belllo!

it was busy day when I came as it's two days before deepavali festive. So, front office received so many guest check-in and I have to wait for about 30 minutes. The staff received my Agoda's booking without any problem and finally gave me the room I ordered. The room is quite tight but it meets our basic needs. It's clean, air-con worked well and despite providing limited channel, they have Nickleodeon for my son. If you opt to stay at Citrus, just make sure that you book room with window, especially if you're claustrophobic. The only major downside is there's no water kettle. Bathroom is also clean and suiting our basic needs. The hotel provided amenities (soap, shower gel, teethbrush and toothpaste). I book room with breakfast and they served good breakfast. There are always flakes and milk, bread with toaster and salad. They changed the buffet everyday. The best thing from Citrus is its location. It's just across of JB Sentral. So, once you finished immigration process all you have to do is find exit way to City Square Mall and find Jalan Station. You can find countless street food hawkers at night around the hotel. Or, if you prefer cafe or restaurant you can find at City Square Mall across the hotel. If you pick Citrus, always make sure that you book room with window

I am quite familiar with the estate where the hotel is in but had never wanted to stay in it. But my opinion has changed completely. Despite the 1990s facade and seemingly off-site location, the interior is very premium and the room is very clean, outperforming it's status as a 4 star hotel. The room is plush, and huge. The bathroom came with a clean large bathtub, and a powerful shower with hot water in good supply. Some flaking of the chrome piece on the bathtub knob is seen but not disturbing. Otherwise, it's in a very good condition. It even comes with a rubber headrest for relaxing in the tub. WiFi is strong although I wished the aircon could cope better with the large room. From my high nonsmoking floor, I realized how near it is to walk to the nearby ksl mall and holiday plaza. The hotel is also 15 mins walk to the pelangi plaza, which is the only area you can find early morning supper nearby. For 15 mins walk, you can also walk to the nearby sri tebrau food centre. The location is very good. The swimming pool was a let down. It's very small and you have to walk through the conference rooms floor in swimming trunks, and then down a dark stairway to get to it. There is no one giving out pool towels too. Overall, a very good stay for the location, comfort and price.

Had a great stay here for one night with good breakfast spread but dont expect big buffet style. Though this a 3-star hotel but the room is exceptionally clean and new. Bathroom water pressure is good and no old hotel feeling in this not brand new buidling. It is very conveniently located mins away from KSL Shopping Mall and behind the hotel there's a local flavour open-air food court at night selling non-halal satay and BBQ seafood/etc, if u can take the heat and sweat, daytime most stalls are closed. Will surely be back here again. Pls note this is a strictly non-smoking hotel.

Stayed one night whilst visiting JB. I am a seasoned traveller, always going for quality but at the same time not breaking the bank to have it. For the money I paid, this was excellent. Clean rooms, excellent rain shower bathroom, friendly and diligent staff. Best of all, really nice coffee at breakfast along with the standard nasi lemak and other western food like sausage and halal hams (only in Malaysia). Would stay here again if the price doesn't change. Would rate it excellent 3 star hotel or a decent 4 stars.

Drove to johor for a short trip with my Sister and boyfriend during the second day of Chinese new year. At first we are unsure how to navigate there. After using google map, the place was quite alright. It's near Zon, a coast by the strait full of seafood restaurants and there's a shopping centre. Great location for supper or to stroll after a meal. Overlooking across the strait is Singapore. We had an authentic Korean food for supper there! Anyway, the rooms are spacious and clean. The food tastes good too at a reasonable price. We ordered Their signature fried rice for RM 20 (without any service charge or tax as we paid cash). We booked 2 rooms as we thought the room to be small. But upon checkin, we realize that the standard room can accommodate 3 people as inside has a sofa with orange cushion. I find overall the hotel is value for money. Will stay there again the next time we go, and this time with just booking one room.

Was a good experience staying in this hotel, yet the Zon shopping mall was so run down and department stall business is closing down.Food is easy to find along Jalan Stulang Was a good experience staying in this hotel, yet the Zon shopping mall was so run down and department stall business is closing down.Food is easy to find along Jalan Stulang Laut, the most famous is otak-otak.Just not very convenient when come out the hotel area,must,passby the custom(Duty free zon).

Staffs is helpful, room is clean! Walkable distance to shopping mall and check Point! My daughter’s bolster is left behind and we only realised it the following night. Contacted the hotel staffs through Facebook messenger late in the night and got an instant reply. Review came late, not something expensive but very precious to my daughter and I’m very thankful for their help!

Hotel CIQ is located in the city. Just a walking distance to City Square Mall, Kota Raya Bus Station and Malaysia Immigration. Those who want to travel to Singapore but prefer to stay in Johor Bharu, Hotel CIQ is one of the good budget hotels. The staffs in CIQ are friendly and willing to help. The room condition is clean and comfortable. Air-conditioner and toilet are functioning well. Toilet, bed sheets and towels are clean. The room is appropriately equipped with safety box for travelers,electronic kettle, water jar, and cups for coffee making. Two coffee and tea sachets are provided too for each day. You may boil water and cool it down before keep in the jar. There are shops too just opposite the hotel. Travelers can easily access to the grocery stores for basic necessities such as mineral water, soap, shampoo, snacks and etc. There are chinese restaurants too open from late noon till midnight with affordable price for varieties of fried noodles. There is a restaurant with minor decoration and clean ( a lil bit like Taiwan style), which open in the morning until 3pm, serves very nice curry fish head. Worth to try! The vicinity of the hotel does look a bit dark as the street is brighten only with yellow lights. For single travelers, you might need to practice more cautions but if you go in a group, it is safer.

Pro- overall is great, plus point is there’s an old uncle will sitting outside wait for you to lock the lobby door for security purpose, so make sure you don’t too late to come back. Facility wise: water dispenser at the lobby, room small and tidy, window is big and good sunlight, got all basic needs like travel size shampoo & shower gel, hairdryer, hot water function well, air-cond function well, TV function well. Location wise: very near KSL mall and the famous KK lok lok. Got parking in front of the hotel and very easy to find. Con- small insect like ant and small cockroach give us a shock & luckily we successfully to kill it coz the size is small. Bedsheet and pillow got yellow stained, heavy smoke smell when we first enter into the room, corner of the room got water stained look like did not maintain well. Conclusion: worth to stay for a night here. Overall still acceptable but the cleanliness need to improve seriously.

We stayed at this hotel for 1 night and booked for a family room. The room was very clean. This family room doesn’t have any windows, so you might need to inform them earlier if you need a room with windows. Staffs are so nice and helpful. There was even a ‘mini grocery store’ at the lobby - which my kids love it! It is one of the best value hotel i have stayed. Thank you 😁

Want something a little vintage feel and yes this hotel does, a great place for function : wedding, family gathering, business meeting etc. Staff was nice and helpful. Room is so fantastic with its old classy theme style, yet there seem to be something weird with the toilet/shower, the water seems to be on & off, well, its a old hotel anyways. Great place for staycation with nearby mall and food street. Good view especially with causeway link between Singapore and johor. Nevertheless, its a cosy classy vintage place to stay.

I spent 30 (thirty) days at this hotel and I felt like home. Very polite and helpfull staff. Taking a taxi is a matter of walking about 100m to a main road and wait for no longer than three minutes and a free taxi will drive by :). About 4-500 m is Danga City Mall with UO store. The KSL bus has a stop next to the mall and costs one MYR to CIQ and JB Sentral. Taxi cost less than 10 MYR. The hotel was refurbished and has new tiles in the rooms and bathrooms which is very clean. After nine days at Grand Bluewave Hotel ***** (ultra noisy air conditioner and neighbour rooms with direct view at me in bed) and 31 days at Berjaya Waterfront **** (changed four times the room due to no hot water or air conditioned) I found Golden Court the best value for money by far. The included breakfast is very handy.

great place to get away from town, yet easily accessible with paid shuttle bus to jb icq. very good international spread, seldom found in malaysia hotel. next to a ksl city shopping mall and opposite is the aging holiday plaza. lots of eateries. so, eat and eat. negative : 1) near to ktvs and discotech, booming away at night to wee hours. can be heard in the quite bedroom. boom you to sleep.

Room is fairly small but clean. Bathroom is also satisfactorily clean. Generally comfortable. Location is great. Very near to new shopping JB City Center is just next block 5 mins walking distance. Also near to the duty free The Zon shopping mall. Food is ample especially Indian & Chinese as well as Malay too. At night there are food stalls along the ally behind the hotel. Varieties of local food of your choice open till late night. Convenient stores ample. Saturday night the place is so alive with hundreds of stalls selling all kind of stuff , like up-town. This is just across the road from the hotel. Parking places also convenient for daily basis, good if you are going to Singapore, you can park your car conveniently. There are few parking area near the Police Station , 5 mins walking. Charges about RM 10 per day. I think that is very reasonable. This is really value for money stay, I will return here for stay next time.

It was a very pleasant stay for us at the hotel. The location is superb! As every location we want to visit are nearby (we travelled by car). I was worried at first when other travellers commented about train sound but to my surprise, there was none that disturbed our sleep. The room is clean and the bathroom looks new. The free breakfast is almost the same & served next door. However, the area of the hotel is quite lonely even in the daylight so, for female and family travellers be aware and try to park nearer to the hotel. Danga City Mall is in the walking distance from the hotel. The rest of the city can be reached in around 20mins max (again, we had car). The staffs are friendly and always with a smile. The renovation is still ongoing hence there are paint stench in the lift and corridor. Altogether, it was a wonderful stay and definitely enhanced our entire trip as we saved A LOT on time.
