Find hotels in Masjid Sultan Idris Shah Kedua

This is my first time at this hotel. The room was spacious and very very clean. I opt for King size bed as i brought my 2 kids. the room was perfect and hardly for me to complaint. The kids 6 and 1 year old can play around in room. The carpet in the room is thick and realy love it. Bathroom also spacious and my kids love it. Recommend the room facing the river so you can enjoy nice view at night. Restaurant nearby beside( the hotel forgot the name )offered excellent food like laksa nasi goreng and cendol and the price is very reasonable. Just opposite the hotel you can rent a bicycle and enjoy cycling within the vicinity. Lastly, the staff also great and being so helpful. very professionals and did their best. I want to mention few names here MR JASPAL, MR SUBRA and MR ALIF these guys doing great job and i think the management should know on their effort. Will come again

Nice hotel, clean and simple. Staff is very polite. I will surely book again! Points for your guys out there: 1. Reception is opened 24/7 2. There are 2 secured parking, basement and on the opposite (open space with security) 3. Good security measures, using access card to go to the room level. 4. There is no electric kettle or mini fridge but there is a hot/cold water dispenser at every floor level lobby area 5. Ironing is also available at every floor lobby area. 6. They provide clear TV receiver plus 100HD movies free on the room TV - best thing ever!!!!!!! 7. Easy to get Grabcar 8. Near to Dataran Ipoh, Ipoh Parade etc 9. Nearby to town.

In these years, we have visited Malaysia several times and stayed at many different hotels. French Hotel is the best ever. My family booked two deluxe twin rooms. The rooms are spacious and clean. The wooden floor and lighting are modern and refreshing. Water pressure from the rain shower is terrific. Even the pillows and linen on the queen bed enables us to have a very nice sleep after a whole day's outing. The location is good. There is a bus stop right outside. It worths going for a ride by hopping on a bus there. Among all, the most impressive is the service from the reception. We arrived at the hotel early in the morning. The staff kept the luggage for us and later allowed us early check-in. When we first approached the reception, a young and cheerful lady called Wen speaking fluent Chinese, checked-in for us. Then, she gave us an informative map and introduced in details about where to have food and where for sight-seeing. Remember to empty your stomach before going to Wen as she will tell you about a very big local food court which opens after 4p.m. everyday. The food is really cheap and delicious. Don't miss it or you will regret! All in all, I felt like staying at a 5-star hotel at 3-star cost. For sure, I will stay at French Hotel if I visit Ipoh again. I will give it full mark if the room can keep a mini fridge.

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.

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 had a bit of a hiccup checking in - looked like my payment didn't go through in their system (I booked through Agoda but it was showing Booking.com) so I just had to confirm that I didn't pay and paid upon my arrival. The rooms were very clean and just what anyone needs when traveling for just a few days. Otherwise, the staff was incredibly accommodating and SO kind. One of the staff members let me borrow his personal iPhone charger when I realized I forgot my adapter for the outlets. Then unfortunately, I was mugged walking down the street in a bad neighborhood and (who I believe was) the owner of the hotel came to find me at the police station to be by my side and help if needed. He also changed my room (upgraded nonetheless) since the robber had my hotel key. I will be forever grateful to this hotel and their staff, as they made me feel so very much at home at a time that I was wishing I was not in this city at all. Thank you very much Brick Box!!

The hotel just beyond my expectation. The staff really helpful and kind. I requested to do early check-in but no room available. So they just asked me to wait until 2 pm in rooftop cafe. Rooftop cafe just simple, but the view quite good. If you need a hotel that near Ipoh railway station and mural art area just stay here. My suggestion if you go to this hotel from railway station, just take the way(besides) near City hall, not direct from Sultan Iskandar street. It's easier for you if you with a luggage. :). If I back to Ipoh, I will stay here definitely. :)

I love the location. We can merely walk to concubine lane, Stesen Keretapi, Masjid Negeri and have the famous food court Medan Selera Dato Sagor. Plus, the food court also have clock tower JWW Birch memorial. The hotel is cheap and you can request iron at the receptionist. It also provide water dispenser. The room size is comfortable even it is name as budget hotel. Cons : No elevator. Quite hard for elderly to reach 3rd floor 😅 I would like to recommend this hotel to everyone!

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!

It's more suitable for budget or transit travelers. I'm at the female only dorm. This pod container type of room did amaze me in many ways as it is very well ventilated and spacious-non claustrophobic. And CLEAN. Good location. Famous chinese eatery are just within steps. When it's time for food, you can be the first to get a place to eat especially in the morning. The train station is just within walking distant - 500m. Doesn't even have to take a cab. There are Sultan Idris Shah Mosque and Little India too. Most probably because of the black concept, it gives a bit down feeling. And of course, we can't expect a pod to be sound prove. Last but not least, from the internet to the phone and front desk guest service... GREAT.

The toilet of 1st floor is what they shown but it was totally different for the 2nd floor, not as nice as what I thought. There is only 1 hair dryer in the hotel and the sound system is bad. You can hear every little sound from next door and the parking is quite dangerous as the garage is in a back street although the receptionist wait for us until we got into hotel after parking. But so far so good but not recommend for elder to stay as they have to use stairs.

excellent hotel! we already have lived here for five days. staff are so friendly and always give us good advice. This room is the most biggest room we live and the cheapest as well. Even the location is in old town so you have to walk to city 10-15mins. If you have limited budget and enough time, I really recommend you stay here! air conditioning is good, space is big, room is clean. price is affordable. it's really nice hotel! And it's easy get Uber or Grab. so don't worry about transportation. 😁
