The best hospitality ”
I plan to bring my parents for a short vacation for their anniversary. That's how I came across bala chalet and decided to explore it. First I was a bit reluctant because the revuew was so so only however I decided to give a try. Here is my personal experience at bala chalet: 1. We booked 2 rooms deluxe n superior, bother room were very clean and spaces. Only a minor part is the old mattress in the superior room. I'm suggesting to change it for the guests to have a comfortable sleep. 2. They catered to all our needs and made us feel relax through out our stay. Mr Bala the owner of the chalet personally checking with the guests to ensure they feel comfortable and well treated. 3. We had our dinner and breakfast in the chalet, the food was pricy but it was worth trying. Especially breakfast nasi lemak was delicious Overall we had a pleasant stay at bala's chalet

Comfy stay in beautiful abode!”
My family was so happy with the stay! I came here with my child, my parents and siblings. The room itself is on the ground floor and have direct access to the garden. We spent time having tea in the garden, the children get to walk freely to enjoy the nature and the colonial design sure is something that my family love the most and complement with having a relaxing holiday in Cameron! BTW, one have to know when to avoid the jammed and crowd areas in Cameron to fully enjoy your holiday. Always check where to go and when is the high peak time ya.

Dreamy and peaceful.”
Been to CH countless times but staying at this hotel hit different. Every corner of it is instagrammable. Cool and peaceful. Friendly and efficient staffs. The place and room are well kept and very clean. I stayed in deluxe room and it took us a set of steep stairs to the room. Not suitable for the elderly. If you want to come with the elderly you might need to choose the family room (or ask the staff first). The parking is quite limited (because it's situated on a hill). So it's quite challenging for those less experienced with driving (and parking hehe). Overall I love everything about this place. Will definitely come again in the future!

Nice Place”
An olde worlde type of place that is actually old!! Introduce yourself to Mr Bala, he will take time to explain about the history of the building and his time there. I have read many complaints about Wi-Fi etc. From my point of view, if I am on holiday Wi-Fi is not high on my list of priorities. A nice., clean place centrally located and rich in history. What is not to like!! Go, I am sure you will enjoy.

Charming, clean and amazing staff! ”
I went to Cameron Highlands for a long stay of 10 days. Bala's felt like a home away from home. The location is perfect, quiet up on a hill but nearby everything. (even walking distance to Tanah Rata: 15 min.) The owners live on site so you can expect a friendly conversation from time to time. The staff is lovely and very professional. The surroundings are serene and well kept. The place was super clean. The only thing to remeber is, Cameron Highlands gets quite chilly and there is no heat inside the rooms so remember to pack layers!

Our best stay yet”
We extended another night on the property, sheets are clean, toilet spotless, towels provided are clean too. Rooms are big and the executive suite is in front of the garden which is amazingly well kept. They have chickens roaming around which makes us feel super close to nature. Mr Bala is very nice, going around making small talks with the guests (my dad is an avid antique collector & he appreciates the antique furnitures and decorations that Mr Bala has kept very well) and the staffs are very welcoming. We had dinner and hi tea at the property too. Fish & chips could have been bigger but no other complaints for any other meal. They even lit up the fireplace and helped us get warmed while having dinner since it was very cold at night because it rained. Amazing stay, I would say. Definitely coming back! :)

It's a Blissful Cottage!”
Bala's Chalet is not a hotel, it is a colonial cottage which is more of a home style. So first thing, we need to be aware on what to expect. I had a fantastic stay. Interior and exterior was awesome. The natural creepers and Rangoon were superb, the property is clean, receptionist and staff were friendly and food was good. We had no complaints on the room. We took a family suite. Beds were good, toiletries were given except toothbrushes. Bathroom was clean, no ants etc. Heater was superb, with continuous hot water. No fan and no AC but we did not need it. The weather is such that you will not have a reason to ask for a fan even. Lights are sufficient. Nothing creepy. No moldy smell. Room was pleasant. Just bring ur own bathroom slipper as its not provided but it will become very essential as the tiles becomes very chill. We enjoyed our 2 nights here. Met Mr.Bala personally and he was a very warm person. Kitchen staff Kumar was very helpful. Their Teh Tarik was "SUPERB". Don't get affected by any negative reviews, please go and experience it on your own and you will not regret.

Great Cameron experience ”
This place is simply amazing! Every corner is picture perfect, the breakfast is good, the dinner is amazing, you hardly have to go out. All food is made fresh, the freshly baked muffins, freshly squeezed juices and fresh steamboat ingredients instead of the other usually frozen ones. The morning sunrise view of the mountains and town is breathtaking. It is located near Kg Taman Sedia entrance, just right off the main street but you have to go up a bit, hence a bit more privacy and quiet compared to Old Smokehouse which situated right at the busy main street. Cons: because this is an old house, it uses gas to provide limited hot shower throughout the whole premise, so in the morning, hot water runs out pretty fast when all visitor uses it so we ends up with cold water when we wake up late. Don't forget to bring your own toiletries because they only provided towel & soap/shampoo. Wifi also is quite slow, but we can appreciate the great ambiance more compared to playing with our phones. Overall a great place, will be going here again, definitely!
