Nice hotel , good staff , good location if you want to travel to singapore. Recommend to get the deluxe room facing the sea. Nice pool and also great variety breakfast . Surely will stay here again.

Sidney Cheo

It is a comfortable hotel , nice sea view but do request not to stay near the Hive music bar , else u definitely will not get a peaceful rest... They just keep play music and keep singing... ????

Ayu Hassan

Yukee Jemae

I always like this hotel especially when I come to JB. Well service is always bad in Malaysia Hotel anyway. So I always be kind to them and sure they will treat us well . Kita senyum dulu...

Mohd Fazrul

Love the bed. Customer service not really bed compare to the grand palace orchard. The basement parking really scary. The pool not for the kids below 3 years old. The view really love it

M.Zulkifli A.Jalil

One of our 2 favourite hotels in JB . Think they did a recent refurbishment and rooms are better now. The "sea view " is unbeatable

Kenny Chia

Good customer service, comfortable bed , nice buffet breakfast (RM25 per pax) and excellent location. Those looking for nice seafood , go to Ong Shun Seafood Restaurant , Jalan Abdul Samad nearby.

Shuq' Yong

The room is comfortable but i’m not recommend this hotel if u sleep 1 room wit ur fren coz of d bathroom window. Even if u shut the blind, u will still feel insecure (if u are havin insecure issue)

Elliott Soh

Awesome service, staff , amenities and food! Especially when my phone was lost during my stay, kind staff helped to look for it. Thank God for you guys!

Muhamad Azwan

During our stay at this hotel . It's quite disappointed when 5star hotel doesn't feels like 5 star hotel .. we have some problem when water stagnant on toilet floor..and it's quite slippery.

Peter Tang

Nice window view and staffs are friendly in general. However, lights tripped, non-functional fridge , water leakage in bath room, noisy (doors banging), and wifi only works the first few hours.

Ben Korrie

Having great facilities. Great buffets and hospitality . Not friendly to foot walker to get to closest restaurants etc

Lily Suzlini Mohd Ali

Nice hotel .... Clean , bed and pillows are soft. Highly recommended

Amy Zainal

Good service . Very nice hotel and there's a free shuttle from hotel to town/jpo/legoland????

Paul Bourke

It's nice and relaxing on the club lounge on L15 and worth paying the upgrade. Wifi in rooms is appalling though, keeps dropping connection and slug slow speeds.

Johan Farid Khairuddin (JFK)

Old. Run down. Bathtub mouldy. No lounge chair in room too so if u come +1, stand while ur partner sits & eats. Service slacks too. Little attention to detail/no focus. Late checkout pay 1/2 day rate.

Said Uzir

Very nice food and service. Will come back again. Highly recommended !

Azrol Qaiyyum

Nice spacious room . Breakfast is okay, nothing amazing about it. Friendly staff . Easy access to ro main road .

Mas'Alia Luffy

I've read the comments on the bad &slow services.No wonder the reception made a confirmation call whether I've received the items requested or not.????so far everything is good.Yup i love the tub too!!

Jeffry Junior

Bed and pillows is good. Soft n you gonna it ????

Sykin Zainodin ™

U can ask to change room. Just plus another RM50++. Sea view is worth a penny.

Mariam Mustaffa

Love the room and the king sized bed . The full length window allowed a view that was just magnificent, especially at night ! Coffee house ok..Service good

Izad Ismail

Good food! If you're planning to stay here, make sure you have the breakfast !

James Antipolo

loved the bathtub, the pool, the staff , the rooms and the wifi connection . but uts hard to get some taxi ..

Leona Lim

Good: nice pool, nice healthclub, modern, new, friendly desk. Downside: no wifi , parking facility separate fr hotel , bfast spread

Halip Hwg

Worth for money,normally hotel mcm ni even' 5star pn still ada bau hancing,but this THISTLE totaly different' gud environment and wth wide scale room size!

Mae Baptist

Standard has dropped tremendously! Cleanliness and maintenance of the hotel is atrocious! Service staff at the Oasis and at the gym are listless and haven't the understanding of hospitality .

Aminur Rashid

Love the view ! Location is nice to chill for your weekends.

Diyana Hazaim

Calm place ,nice food,nice room,good service .. :D

Cima

The first room that i get with leaking closet. The 2nd room, aircond doesn't work. other than that its good place to stay only minor things have to be upgraded.

Jo Rohan

I like the cars at the Valet. Reminds me of the Johor Palace Tuesday parking lot .

mohd fareed

Best hotel with a great hospitality & worth returning

nyettosan

Ask for corner lot room (applicable for deluxe room only) - the view is spectacular!

Simon Wong

Rm417 per night on deluxe room is not to expected standard except the bed is soft. Tv spoiled, floor cracked, water heater rusted, dim lights and it took more than 1 hour to ur doorstep after a call.

Idzwan Zakaria

Must try their 180 degrees improvement of their breakfast menu . Kudos to the management of Thistle JB.

Faizal Osman

Warm staffs ...always gives a smile and greet you...

Sherlyn Khong

Beware this is a 3rd party website: thistle.com/en/hotels/malaysia/johor_bahru/thistle_johor_bahru So your booking wont be accurate.

Dayana Kamaruzaman

Breakfast and room service was pretty good. Room was cozy but needs repairs (bathroom door looked like it was going to fall apart ).

RAZ

al-faudzan abdul halim
