    “Great stay and promising vibes ”

    Great Stay at Promenade Hotel! I recently stayed at Elopura Hotel, and it was a great experience. The room was comfortable and clean, providing a cozy atmosphere for a relaxing stay. The rates were affordable, making it excellent value for money. What I loved most is the convenient location — it’s close to shopping malls and various interesting attractions, making it easy to explore the area. Whether you’re there for business or leisure, Elopura Hotel is a solid choice. Highly recommended!

    “Birthday trip”

    I recently stayed and had a wonderful experience. The location was perfect, and the staff were incredibly welcoming and accommodating. The room was spacious, clean, and comfortable, making our stay very enjoyable. One highlight was the excellent customer service. They were always ready to assist with any request. I would also like to note that it would be great if the hotel could consider offering earlier check-in options, especially for families traveling with young children. We would have appreciated being able to check in earlier to settle in more comfortably. Overall, I highly recommend this hotel and would definitely return on my next visit!

    “Weekend Staycation”

    Our second time staying here. It was still a lovely experience. Pros: - Easy and fast check-in & check out. - No deposit money (unlike some hotels requirement even though I already paid via Agoda). - Free ample parking space (just verify at concierge for each time that you leave the premises). - Friendly, helpful & super nice staffs. - Massive variety of breakfast spread. - Clean and comfy bed. - Lovely, amazing view of the ocean from our room. - Room was equipped with toiletries, bedroom slippers, bathrobes, mini fridge, digital safe box, coffee/tea/ sugar/cream sachets, hairdryer, iron & ironing board and a big TV. - Hotel had a swimming pool and a charming man-made pond. - Location was walking distance to a few halal restaurants, 24/7 mini mart and a local tour guide office. - 5- 7 mins walk to Centrepoint mall. Cons: - Air-conditioner was cool but we wish it was cooler. - Breakfast was quite hectic (probably due to the fact that it was weekend & there was a huge formal gathering the night we had checked in).

    Dear Ms Fauziah, thank you for your valuable feedback and comments. We have passed on all your lovely compliments to all concerned and they are extremely excited by it all. On your room air-conditioning, our engineering team has immediately rectified the issue. And yes, the hotel was busy that week leading to the cafe being a little crowded at times and for that we do apologize. Ms Fauziah, we hope to have the opportunity to be of service to you again in the near future.

    “Very good”

    Very strategic location. Just a walking distance to food stalls (Anjung) for dinner. About 600+m to the markets selling crafts, dry goods & night markets. Have stayed in this hotel before but many years ago. The hotel did some refurbishments. Was there during the school & CNY Holiday so there were many local & international tourists staying there. The staffs were pleasant & helpful. The room was spacious & clean. Buffet breakfast was ok with many varieties to choose but the hot drink machine, had to queue for a while. F&B should look into this... Stayed 3 nights & we rented a car. Parking at the basement & able to validate the parking ticket. Overall, satisfied.
