Top Plaza Pelangi Hotel Reviews

KSL Hotel & Resort

8/10 Good

"Friendly and helpful staff. One of the rare hotels that lets you check-in if you arrive before the standard check-in time. Excellent dining options."

St. Giles Southkey

10/10 Excellent

"Breakfast was good."

Grand Paragon Hotel Johor Bahru

10/10 Excellent

"Good location, walkable distance to KSL. Clean and spacious room, generally a happy stay."

Novotel Johor Bahru City Centre

10/10 Excellent

"Very new hotel just behind a good Chinese massage center with food choices downstairs. KSL is just a short walk away too. The pool is more for wading and since it is next to the conference rooms there is not much privacy"

Space Residency Premier Suites Johor Bahru

8/10 Good

"convenient location . parking easy"

Holiday Villa Johor Bahru City Centre

10/10 Excellent

"Everything about the hotel is beyond my expectations except for a minor flaw in the short shower hose. Location wise is perfect for exploring local delicacy and needless to say, variety of amazing shops in KSL mall. Highly recommended. My booking was inclusive of good breakfast and free parking."

TROVE Johor Bahru

8/10 Good

"The hotel is quite old, but the housekeeping is clean, and location is quite good too. There’s a water dispenser in the room, hence no bottled water was provided. Nice view from the room we stayed too."

JB City Shopping Mall Apartment

10/10 Excellent

"Clean room, walking distance to amenities"

Holiday Inn Johor Bahru City Centre by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Just next to CIQ. Will be glad that you are so close to the customs and can just dump the bag before going to shop in KSL or Southkey. In July 2026 the City Square is undergoing renovations so there is not much to shop so take note of that. Everything should be back to normal when the new MRT station opens that links to Singapore. The hotel is modern, new and very welcoming. Did not have breakfast at the hotel but went to the old town to have my nasi lemak and hainanese coffee."
