"Check in is quite disaster at first when such a big hotel do not use numbering check in such as Genting Resort and Marina Bay Sand. Lucky for me, they manage to put me check in at their Business Lounge after make a small complain during the Q. Not just that, they also go beyond my expectation an offered me complimentary room upgrade located one of their highest floor and with great views of Johore Bahru city and the neighborhood Singapore. The room is very spacious and up to the international standard. Wish they were part of IHG Alliance hotel :-) Definitely will come back and recommended to all my business associate. "

"Stayed at Amari for one night with my partner and I must say the hotel's location is fantastic and ideal for a short trip across the Causeway. It is just a short walk from the Johor Bahru checkpoint and across the road from two popular shopping malls — City Square and Komtar JBCC. In terms of customer service, we had a pleasant check-in experience and received a free upgrade to a junior suite (we had originally booked an executive club king room). The room was spacious, comfortable and clean, nothing to complain about at all. The "pillow menu" we found at our bedside table was a nice welcome touch as well although we did not utilise it. Breakfast buffet selection was also quite varied and we enjoyed it very much. We did not manage to try the rest of the dining options at Amari given our short stay. While Amari's rates are certainly more expensive than the average hotel in Johor Bahru, I'd say it's worth the splurge especially if you're looking for a nice place for a quick getaway."

"The staffs were very helpful and friendly. The rooms and corridor has been newly renovated. The rooms are spacious, bed are comfy, room facilities are well arranged, toiletries are sufficient. This hotel deserves more than a three stars rating. Location is extremely good. The hotel are surrounded by most of the favourite/popular shopping centres and hawkers in Johor Bahru. Such as the tebrau hawker and KSL shopping mall just behind, pelangi just up a little, and a night hawker selling really delicious local food just across the road. All these places are within walking distance. Breakfast spread are considered good and atas (for the price you paying) with Egg station. I greatly recommend this hotel to everyone. Looking forward to my next visit. CONS: Shower heater abit slow in heating up the water. I have to let the water run for 15 minutes before I could step in. TV channels abit bland with local channels. Can be improved by adding some Movie Channels like Fox or HBO or Thrill. "

"first come to Johor Bahru, it's not easy to find Citrus Hotel, the taxi driver did'nt know jalan Station.. but finally we found it, next to Johor Bahru City Square.. No need taxi to get there, just walking from Johor Bahru Check Point and walk by JB Sentral, we can reach Citrus Hotel easily.. The room is nice, clean and good view, the table is quiet small, can not put many things on it but, it's ok for me... I think the breakfast is good, with different menu every day.. Around the hotel we can find Johor Bahru City Square, big mall with many branded shops, Pasar Malam which sell many things and cheap foods, food court and also near to Terminal Kotaraja II, very easy looking for transportation to Spore I will stay in this hotel when I come to Johor Bahru.."

"This was the first time we've stayed in the hotel and I would certainly say that it won't be our last! Although the price of the room is a bit on the high side (compared to nearby hotels), I think the overall feel and room condition were value-for-money. The staffs were very friendly and it was really nice of them to allocate us to the highest floor (Level 23) even though they could not secure a double-bed room for us. We also tried the infinity pool at Level 25 and it was great! The pool was clean and the view was great! Lastly to add, the availability of Thai Odyssey (one of the value-for-money thai massage in JB) within the hotel and the close proximity to KSL Mall were icing to the cake. We will definitely recommend Holiday Villa Johor Bahru City Centre to our friends and family who are intending to stay in JB! Thank you for the great experience!"
