Hotels near Funtasy House Trick Art

the room is big. simple and contemporary design. Staff need an upgrade, as it takes a very loongggggg time to process the check in and check out. I can tell they are new. Also, parking is limited. the location is nearby all tourist attraction : Birch Memorial Clock Tower Ipoh Mural - A 'Kopi' Break Funtasy House Trick Art and more.. They also provide free shuttle to all the tourist attraction nearby this hotel. Overall I'm satisfied with this hotel.

Upon arrival at the hotel, the lobby was beautifully decorated for the Chinese new year. We also noticed a board stating that the hotel was officially opened on the 1st of Jan 2012, which meant that the hotel was only a few months old. The environment was bright and welcoming, however the staff was a slight disappointment. They were barely proficient in English, which is no longer a norm in Malaysia. Good thing, the property owner, who speaks English as a first language, is always near to help. The housekeeping staff (which we do not interact with), did a great job with keeping the hotel clean and in tip-top condition. The room we got was excellent. The deco and bed quality could easily beat those that I've seen in a 4 or 5 star hotel elsewhere. The bed and pillows were super comfortable. The bathroom had no tub but the lovely rain shower more than made up for it. There was a lovely desk for the business traveller to get some work done. And best of all, free wireless internet! The only problem we had with the hotel was car parking. Being a converted shop house, there was no room for an indoor car-park. The car park is located about 30-40 metres down the road. Not a terribly long distance but the pavement (built and maintained by the city) was not exactly in a good condition. And there was no sheltered link between the carpark and hotel, which can get problematic in the tropical climate (think hot sun and storms). However, the nice thing about this was that that the hotel owner has installed some serious flood lighting and has hired a night guard to watch over the cars parked (Car theft is quite rampant in Malaysia). In terms of location, it is a short walk to all the famous eateries and banks. Overall, the hotel is lovely. Great place to get back to wind down and rest. At around RM100, it's way beyond what I'll call value for money.

1st time stay in pi hotel. Fast check in and friendly staff. Only 3 things Im not satisfied was the room they gave me "810" have some problems - basin's mixer spoil with only hot water supply cause me brush teeth half way have to go into the shower area use the shower mixer. 2nd the body shampoo machine was out of service when I bath half way...damn! Cause me have to make a phone call ask them send me bath gel with a paper cup to my room and im on the middle of the bath! 3rd was the roon overall look like clean but actually have a lot of dust because i have a very sensitive nose. But at the end the staff shift me to another new room at "319" and thanks god everything was fine after shift into new room so just forgive them. The next morning when I woke up I leave a msg at reception counter ask them to do house keeping when I wanna go out, unfortunately during the night time when I back to my room the situation still same like morning without any house keeping. I purposely went down to reception to feedback and that time have 2chinese guys at reception and I dunno their name just can firgure out are "one fat, short with spec and another one is tall n thin". They talk nicely and good manner apologies with their miss out service. At the end this 2chinese guys still send me a room service for their sincerely apologies make feel so surprise and forget about the mad and happy to see the humble nice service. So definitely I will come back again when I visit ipoh. Thanks for the room service and keep it up. Hope to see the improvement when my next visit soon. Thanks Oh ya, the hotel location very good because all the famous places and foods was just nearby and the best things I like is the hotel provides free car park with security for only guest. Reasonable price with not bad interior decor. This hotel also very good with provide the information with all nearby famous foods to convenience/easier guests from outstation to find the place. Good job!

I was surprised at how centrally located the hotel was. Pub street was just behind, far enough so you don't hear the loud music from your room, but close enough to just take a 2 minute stroll to some of the best nightspots in town. It was also relatively near to a lot of the famous food shops. Two of the best dim sum in town are just a 4-minute walk away, perfect way to start your day. We took the triple room, and there was even a balcony. And the bathroom was so huge. Free drinking water too, just bring your own bottle down to the lobby to fill up. Also they had several reserved parking spots for guests at the back of the hotel, perfect if you are driving and do not want to pay for public parking by the roadside. I would really recommend this hotel, especially for other Malaysians making a short trip to Ipoh.

The only reason to stay in the hotel was to have a place to overnight after spending one full day at Lost World of Tambun. We only checked in late evening ie around 6pm and it was raining heavily at that point of time. The check in process was very fast and the staff there were very helpful to help fetching my kids from the car with all the stuff along and showing the direction to the food outlet if we were to eat outside the hotel. The kids were too hungry and lucky the hotel provides a cafe which is opened until 12pm daily. Food? Not bad at all for the price that we paid considering its a cafe and it is in the 3 star hotel. I liked both rooms that we checked in - spacious room for the kids and spacious bathrooms too. The next morning, we walked to the pasar for breakfast and had the best traditional breakfast overthere ie pulut ikan masin, mihun soto - awesome. Overall, thumbs up for the hotel facilities, the service provides by the staff and the location. I will definitely consider this hotel for my next trip to Ipoh.

This is a fab place to,stay whilst in historic Ipoh.A cute boutique hotel. Swift easy check in staff where amazingly professional and helped us organise tickets , vists and taxis. Nothing was too much trouble. We walked every where and did history and art trails which are very close by. Also right next to tea house and night market. Our room was really clean which makes a change in Malaysia. Very impressed totally recommended.

Stayed with my elderly parents and we booked the family room which had a double bed and single bed. The rooms are new and modern, quite basic, but all that you would need. Room safe, fridge, fantastic shower with really hot water and option to use the "rain shower", aircon, hair dryer, TV, free wifi. We didn't have breakfast in the hotel, but just behind the hotel are 2 of the best dimsum restaurants in Ipoh, serving good local fare. There are other restaurants nearby for dinner and there is a new shopping mall at 5 mins walking distance. It's a 20 min walk to Ipoh Old Town. The other good thing about the hotel was that they are affiliated with Ipoh Overland Tours and the hotel staff facilitated the tour bookings for day trips with your own driver to where you wanted to go.

On first entrance into the hotel it was shocking..... a small space to the lift (with a man manning the entrance)...as the reception was on the 1st.floor....the reception was a small corner manned by 1 person with a small lounge area. But, he was very efficient and then it's next to our rooms....Wow! What a pleasant surprise! The corridors are clean and nice and on entering our rooms we were surprised to see the cleanliness of our rooms. Big bath rooms/toilets....Flat TV, kettle with cups and saucers, instan coffee, free bottled water, comfortable beds and pillows and clean thick towels. The rates were cheap for all these. Location of the hotel in old Ipoh city is good.

I mentioned the three best things and the three worst were, 1 There was an ant problem in the room, 2 there was a problem with the phone system so we were constantly getting incoming calls, booking enquiries etc! 3 on our last nights stay there were hoons treating the street outside like a drag strip, very noisy!! But having said that I would recommend and would use the hotel again myself.

I stayed at New Caspian Hotel for a night. The location is superb, just 5 minutes walk to most famous restaurants, 20 minutes drive to Tambun Hot Springs. Upon check- in, the room's floor was very dusty but we requested the staff to mop it and they gladly obliged. There were also mosquitoes in the room as mentioned by a few reviewers so I came prepared with my mosquito spray. There was no remote control for the aircon so the temperature cannot be adjusted- it was a little too cold. Nevertheless, for one night's stay in Ipoh town at such a cheap price with free carpark just beside the hotel (also, with a guard watching over) was a really good deal!

I got into Ipoh quite late and was glad that Hong Hin was an option close to bus station (15min walk) which I could check in at. Owner is friendly and helpful. Location of this place is excellent. Very easy to start Old Town tour from here. The room I stayed in was large, but very basic. At least it was clean, along with bathroom. This was all I needed as I was just staying for one night. Only negative would be that the hotel is located very close to House Music Club, so you'll hear dim sound of music till quite late, but I didn't find this objectionable. I'd recommend this place for budget travellers who want close access to the main sights in Ipoh. Train station is only 10min walk away, local bus station 15min away (from where you can take other buses to long distance bus terminal).
