Best Mersing Hotels

"The location of the hotel is good. It right Infront of Mersing beach. You can sea the island and view of the sea. Staff at the reception Cafe D Tanjung is nice n polite. The room is quite old. Need to do some preventive maintenance program to ensure room is tip top. Housekeepin didn't go a good job. Bathroom with stain on three Waals n tiles . Small black ants on the TV tables . You have TV , fridge, n iron board but only one power points. TV don't have adaptors for two pin . Luckily I brought my own to watch TV. It is after 30 years I'm back to the hotel after the pre open. I'm a local Mersing guy. Hope they can improve"

"I had an absolutely wonderful stay here! The service was excellent—everyone was so polite and greeted me warmly whenever we met. The island environment is beautiful and very relaxing, making the whole atmosphere so pleasant and laid-back. Every meal was delicious too! My only small comment is that there were quite a lot of mosquitoes and insects in the room, which I understand is unavoidable on an island, but I hope the pest control can be improved in the future. Overall, I had a really great day and truly enjoyed my time here. Thank you to everyone for the amazing service—I will definitely come back again!"

"The room floor a bit sandy. But not that dirty. It can be improved. It should have been mopped. Overall the bed and room condition was ok. Shower head was broken but Still functioning. Still comfortable for my family. Still worth the price. Beach view from the balcony. Still can hear the wave from balcony. Good for healing."

"Air cond was very cold and the bed was very comfortable. We had a good rest in the hotel. Very good room maintenance and everything is in good order including TV channels broadcast. Only no good was no coffee and toilet paper provided. Basic soap and tissue paper were given. Room has no kettle and hot water."

"Merlin Inn Hotel is a cozy and affordable place to stay if you're planning a trip to Tioman Island or exploring Mersing town. The location is strategic—just a short drive to the jetty and close to shops and eateries in town. The staff are friendly, polite, and always ready to help with a smile, which adds a warm touch to the stay. The room is clean and well-maintained, with essential amenities provided such as air conditioning, water heater, towels, and a water dispenser nearby. However, do note that toothbrushes and toothpaste are not included, so bring your own. The bed is comfortable, and the overall environment is quiet, making it suitable for light sleepers. A useful tip: request a room on the first floor for a better internet connection. The Wi-Fi tends to be stronger there compared to the upper floors. Parking is available right in front of the hotel, which is convenient for those driving. Overall, Merlin Inn is a simple, no-frills stay that delivers good value, friendly service, and a strategic location for both transit and short stays in Mersing."

"I was very satisfied; it was very clean, comfortable, and new! I highly recommend this hotel. My whole family had a great time. It had a bathtub, and it was quite large."

"First i want to review on booking experience. I was so pissed off with Trip.com booking. I entered 3 adults upon search & result showed an option of 3 occupancy room with full-board package for 2 adult. There is option for full-board 3 adults however since the first option was cheaper i was thinking to arrange my own for the additional 1 adult boat transfer & not require the meal package. It was shocking that when i reached the check in office it is mandatory to pay for the 3rd adult boat n meal package to the resort. My question here WHY trip.com put the option for 2 adult knowing the resort does not allow the 3rd person to check in??? This is a scammm for me because i entered 3 adults requirement at the first place for the booking. Both resort & trip.com are not synchronise with the information. Now going to resort stay experience: The resort staff were all great & the service was also on point. However, the condition of the resort was so below my expectation. I paid RM 700+ per night & i don’t feel worth it. Everything was super outdated & worn off. Especially the bathroom. The floors were cracked open & was swarming with bugs & insects & some people might get allergic to them. The bedroom is self was okay & comfy. Also food-wise, they served a lot of seafood & didn’t ask if anyone was allergic or not which one of us is. For RM 700 per night i expected it is included some activities we could do at the resort however it was disappointing that everything was chargeable whereas they are non-motorised & doesn’t even use resource / maintenance such as kayak & snorkel gear. The only nice thing at the resort was staff friendliness & the food taste."

"The hotel is conveniently located. Not far from the pier on Tioman. The hotel helped us arrange ferry tickets there and back. They took me to the pier by car. The room itself is small, but everything is there."

"Basic hotel for 1 night on the cross-border to Tioman Island. Prima beds and clean spacious room. Beautiful view of river with boats. Great supermarket and a few shops around the corner of the hotel. Bus station at stoneworld distance. The hotel has a small area, but is strategically favourable."

"We arrived in Mersing around 5 pm for a one-night stopover before taking the ferry to Tioman. For one night, the hotel was okay, but nothing more. The windows, once closed, let in a fairly large amount of light. We didn't get much sleep because there was a lot of car and motorcycle traffic at night. The bathroom wasn't very clean. My wife and daughter didn't use it. It wasn't the best hotel we stayed at during our stay. However, the ferry was an 800m walk away."
