Grand Paragon Hotel Johor Bahru

8/10 Good

"Clean hotel with all necessary amenities but dont expect much for the quality. Its near KSL mall (10 min walk), and close enough to Woodland Checkpt."

Shama Suasana Johor Bahru

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing stay! The receptionist are helpful and friendly. I really enjoy my stay and a bit sad I had to leave the place for my next trip. You can easily find food and groceries just accross the street from the entrance of the hotel. I recommend shama suasana for anyone who wants to stay at Johor Bahru. Thank you very much for your hospitality!"

Space Residency by A----Walk 100m to KSL

10/10 Excellent

"Apartment is very clean and wonderfully kept. Basic amenities are provided which makes our short stay worry-free. The communication with the staff, even after we have checked in is highly responsive and effective. They are very friendly too. Definitely a new go-to venue for our JB visit in future!"
