Lovely interior”

We love the hotel lobby decoration. Good place to take a few candid shots. Room is very spacious, like very. Bathroom is very spacious and clean too. Theres ample free parking spot in front of the hotel. They request a deposit of rm100 when checkin and will return to you during checkout, which is ok for us. Location wise is ok, a few km to city center.Nothing bad to comment about with the price we paid. Definitely will come back again next time if i visit ipoh again.

Nice quiet place. Hotel has a cafe linked to it. Rooms are clean. AC adequate. Bathrooms big and clean. Staff are friendly. Decor is unique. Lots of restaurants around the hotel though none were open for breakfast. There's parking in front of the hotel but none of it was exclusive to the hotel so you might have to go looking. Location wise, it's actually quite near to town centre. Enjoyed my experience.

The staff is very helpful as we need to store some meat in the freezer, they are kind enough to help us out. Overall the place is strategically located, with nearby eateries such as local kopitiam and fast food restaurants. The parking is ample and we will definitely come back again if we travel to ipoh!

A Stone's Throw Away From Serenity”

If you're a Chinese temple nerd like myself, this hotel sits right beside all the famous temples of Ipoh. You would still need your car to drive around due to the busy traffic, but the sights are all within 5-10 mins. The hotel is well decorated and gives off an urban minimalist feel that even my two old folks can appreciate. We had a towel boo boo in our room, but the staffs quickly rectified the issue. All in all, a hassle-free one night stay at Merton. Would 100% recommend to any other travelers who want to stay away from the busier parts of the city.

Fast and friendly front desk ”

I originally booked for a night here. But then after I checked into my room, I decided to extend for another night. So I booked one more night in Agoda, informed the front desk about it, and they told me no need to move to another room, so its pretty convenient to me. The evening shift morning front desk guy is so soft spoken and so professional mannered. I am so satisfied by your customer service. Will come again. As for the room, all good for me.

the hotel is very pretty and the location is just nice...outside the jam area. This is not near the tourist spot. Since we have a car, we find the location convenient for us as we dont need to compete for parking and it;s not in the busy area so we arw still able to relax. The hotel setting is so nice and welcoming. We worn that big smile on our faces as soon as we entered the reception area eventhough we were so exhausted from our trip
