Top Plaza Pelangi Hotel Reviews

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."

St. Giles Southkey

8/10 Good

"Room is clean, gym is spacious with sufficient equipment to use. However, treadmill was quite wonky which can be dangerous. Will be good for staff to take a look at the treadmill and have regular maintenance. Buffet spread was good but could have more varieties. Overall the room was clean and nice, spacious and extremely comfortable"

Sheraton Johor Bahru

8/10 Good

"Everything was great, except that the room type had a connecting room. The soundproof was not that great as we had guest on the other room. It wasn’t bad but do take note that if you are sensitive to noise you could hear some noise next door."

JB City Shopping Mall Apartment

10/10 Excellent

"Clean room, walking distance to amenities"

Grand Paragon Hotel Johor Bahru

10/10 Excellent

"Nearby food court has good food"

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

10/10 Excellent

"The unit is managed by The Avery Management located on 2nd floor next to Tower A Lift Lobby. The Avery Management staff are young friendly & helpful, They are willing to go the extra to help. Space Residency is well located. Will revommend to consider units maanged by Avery Management."

Novotel Johor Bahru City Centre

8/10 Good

"The location of the property is near and convenient to get around to nearby places. Sound insulation for room isn't great. Noise could be heard quite clearly from people talking and the aircon or fan humming."

DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Johor Bahru

8/10 Good

"Free parking, staff service excellent. Surrounding hotel under construction so location messy not so nice"

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."
