Holiday Inn JB City Center

#newyearadventure #yearofrabbit Second time back here! Very helpful and a warm approach during my check in. A very high standard hotel in JB, and as it was relatively new, rooms are clean, bright and spacious. Hope they continued to stay that way. Location is the best, super near to the customs, beside City Square Mall and above Komtar JBCC and even the drop-off, pick-up area was so seamless to get around JB. The only minor issue was probably the lift where you would need to take to level 8 to the reception area and to change to another lift to get to your room. Room is bright, spacious clean and large walk-in shower. Holiday In JB City Center will be my togo hotel in JB!

#johorbahruhotels 🏨 Holiday Inn Johor Bahru City Centre — 🌍 Location is superb — right above / connected to Komtar JBCC & City Square Mall, and very close to the CIQ (customs/checkpoint). Great if you want shopping, food, or crossing over. 🛏️ Rooms are clean, modern & comfy — many say the rooms are spacious with good amenities, nice beds, good views. 😊 Friendly staff & good service (mostly) — check-ins are smooth, staff helpful, guests generally satisfied with hospitality. 🥐 Breakfast / food variety — good spread, local + international options. Though busy times affect speed. 🏊♀️ Amenities & facilities — rooftop sky pool, 24-hour gym, good lounge, views of Johor Bahru from higher floors. --- 👎 What Guests Mention Could Be Improved ⏳ Lift / Elevator delays & access logistics — you often have to change lifts (mall to lobby, lobby to room), especially during peak hours. Waiting times can be long. 🔈 Sound issues — walls / doors are thin, noise from other rooms, hallways or plumbing sometimes disturbing. 🛁 Inconsistency in housekeeping / amenities — reports of missing toiletries, slow room service or delays, lapses like unclean spots (tables, corners). 🍳 Breakfast chaos during peak times — especially egg station / hot food counters get crowded, sometimes long wait or slow replenishing. 🅿️ Parking & entrance issues — carpark access can be narrow, entrance via mall or multi-level parking lot; sometimes confusing or inconvenient. 🌡 Air-conditioning / ventilation issues — some guests reported AC not cooling well, heat in room, or smells / stale air in certain areas. --- ⭐ Overall Thoughts Holiday Inn JBCC is a very good option especially for short stays, weekend getaways, family trips, or for travelers who want easy access to malls, food, and the border. It delivers strong value: good location, modern amenities, generally clean rooms and friendly staff make up for the few rough edges. If you’ve a low tolerance for noise, need flawless service & amenities, or expect luxury, then some of the issues might matter more. --- 📝 Review with Emojis & Hashtags Holiday Inn JBCC — often called “nice, modern, and super convenient” ✅ What stands out: 📍 The location = ⭐️ — connected to malls, steps to CIQ, food everywhere. 🛌 Room comfort & aesthetics are solid; new-hotel feel, good views. 🏊 Amenities like the rooftop sky pool & gym are enjoyable escapes. 😄 Staff mostly friendly and helpful — gives good impression. What to be aware of: 🚪 Elevator waiting can be long, especially during busy hours. 🔉 Noise from corridors / other guests can disturb. 🍳 Breakfast can get messy / crowded — don’t go in late! 🧼 Occasional slips in cleanliness & on-time service. --- Rating: 4/5 👍 Great choice for location & convenience. 👀 Minor improvements needed in service consistency & infrastructure.
