Hotels Near Retention Pond in Johor Bahru

I really nice spacious room, we stayed in 307, which is a one-bed room apartment, please note there are smaller rooms. this is really good if you are staying for a few days, large living room with an induction cooker, toaster, microwave, and fridge. They also included plates and bowls. for cooking equipment and glassware, you will need to contact housekeeping, i stayed only 2 nights so i didn't bother. one big pet peeve was that the dish provided was too big for the microwave, so please heat up your food in the containers before plating them. Both the microwave and fridge worked well, it made ice in around 2 to 3 hours. the shower was great, with constant temperature and good water pressure. the bedroom lacked a TV only the TV was in the living room, so that was a bummer, the room was also a bit noisy as i think there is a family of birds living in the air-con compressor so if you are a light sleeper, you want to give this a miss. The road outside can also get noisy at all hours. The nightlife is interesting, with quite a few bars and restaurants, and lots of motorized scooter rental stores, this does have quite a big issue with me, with alot of teens and kids zooming up and down the harbor at night, it does get dangerous for families with smaller kids. The selling point of this place is its proximity to Legoland, unfortunately, it is a tad hard to get a Grabcar (a rideshare service like Uber) because at the moment the area is not as busy as it was pre-covid. i see families waiting 30mins to an hour to get a car. If you drive, there is an underground carpark (complimentary). The most disappointing was the breakfast, not enough food, and they were unable to cope with the number of people. they struggled to fill coffee pots, juice dispensers, cut fruits, and bread. once something came out, it was gone in minutes. Overall, I would recommend this place for families, just skip the breakfast and make something in the room.

Great room view. Good location if drive. Cleanliness still acceptable. Need improvement on soundproofing, say if kids running around or knocking things etc, downstairs can hear. Do note that on heavy rain days with strong wind, be prepared to be somewhat in the storm when walking along the corridor to reach your room. Also heavy rain will caused flooding into the room as water sipped in through the door that leads to the balcony which was locked by Ramada Suites. Overall this is a super spacious accommodation with friendly staff.

Room: Clean room and bathroom. Shower area was spacious but could do with a little more hooks. Toilet seat was clean but can see that it's old. Breakfast: Decent spread with a live egg cooking section. Just nice there was a saxophonist playing music on Sunday morning. On Saturday morning, there was a balloon artist making simple balloon sculpture for kids. Amenities: Gym looks decent. There is a pool too but we did not manage to enjoy those. Location: Very convenient, above Zenith Mall, i.e. opposite JBCC, and hence very near to JB City Square and Customs. Can go to Haidilao in Zenith Mall for supper too 😋 Service: Check-in was relatively quick. Staff at check-in counter was friendly. The staff and guard outside the breakfast place were friendly too. The housekeeper was friendly too.

If you are planning to go to Johor for the weekend, Z Hotel is the place to stay as it's relatively close to the checkpoint and near many famous eateries. Choose Z Hotel, the perfect place to stay.

There’s 2 reception counters for check in & out. KSL City Square Mall just connects to the hotel & resort with a glass door apart. The room lightning is not very brighter as can’t see the face clearly when put on makeup. Sadly the shower head is fixed type and the water tap at basin will splash out when turn on. TV unable to watch any channel due to the aerial cable has no signal. Still can hear the water flowing from next door or peoples talking from outside because poor sound insulation inside the room. The room door need to closed harder as it won’t fully close up when letting it close ownself. There’s Avery-day drink stall which can get mystery dolls with purchased drinks.

Love the people at the front desk, they are always so happy and friendly. Check-in took a bit longer than usual but the staff were very apologetic. I stayed in the Urban room at level 12 facing the highway and river. To my surprise it was rather quiet I can’t really hear the traffic. Morning breakfast at level 6 was pretty crowded. The next morning I just went down earlier and it was great. The girls at breakfast were always happy to welcome us… keep it up 👍

We just came back from a weekend birthday staycation. Our stay at Renaissance Hotel was a very comfortable one and the staff were extremely thoughtful to prepare a surprise setup in our room - complete with balloons, a printed birthday message with even little heart shapes, as well as a tasty slice of birthday cake and handwritten card! We were very touched by this gesture; thank you so much! Their breakfast buffet was also better than expected - great variety and good taste!

This was a staycation and we booked an executive twin with ‘2 large single beds’ as advertised, but the room was very small, so were the beds. Although rather well-appointed in terms of furnishings, there just isn’t quite enough space for 2 adults and a pre-teen child to roam. The tv is also smaller usual. There is no breakfast provided but the street that the hotel is located at has some options, but not where I would go for breakfast. The Mount Austin theme park is nearby, but if that’s where you’re heading, I’d assume you would like more space and comfort to chill out after an entire day of play.

We checked in at midnight. Everything was smooth. Room was clean, no smell of smoke & aircon cold enough. Thats what I like it!
