Hi any reviews on this hotel? Thank you.
Past by this hotel several occassions but didn't stay before.
It is conveniently located opposite City Square Mall and 5-10 min walk from the customs. Very small lobby and shabby rooms (when viewed from the exterior). Exterior painted green and orange. I guess you get what you pay for the low room rates.
I have stayed before at Compact Hotel (now JA Residence) near Jalan Wong Ah Fook and was disappointed with the rooms cleanliness. Thus, I have booked the 5 star Puteri Pacific Hotel for my next trip next week.
IMO, you get what you pay for. If you are not fussy about shabby rooms, I guess A Vista Melati is a good choice for shopping. I cant stand liquid paper marks on the pillow and dirty linens in shabby rooms.
(1)Is it still operating - Free shuttle between Johor Baru City Square to Spore CK Tang at Orchard Rd?
(2)motels or hotelsz nearest to City square?
(3)Four of us in a family, Is taxi best mode of transport fr Johor Baru to Singapore?
(4) if bus cheaper, any motels or hotels near Larkins
(5) cheapest transport fr Senai Airport to City Square or Larkin
1. I have not heard of any free shuttle between JB and Orchard Road.
2. A Vista Melati is a no-frills hotel located just across a small street from City Square. Alternatively, Compact Hotel, Puteri pacific is a mere 5 min walk from City Square.
3. You can catch bus 160/170 from JB to Singapore Kranji MRT very easily. Just avoid the peak hour crowd in the early morning and evenings.
4. Puteri Pacific is just nearby the Larkin Terminal.
5. You can catch the coach that ferry you from the City Lounge at the Larkin Bus Terminal directly to the Senai Airport. There are specific bus departure schedules.
Puteri Pacific is in the city centre. It is nowhere near Larkin. Perhaps you were referring to another bus terminal near Puteri Pacific (Don't know what's the name). Nevertheless, most buses from Singapore would pass by not too far from Puteri Pacific. The taxi station is also within walking distance.
I don't think there's any decent hotel near Larkin. Larkin is the main bus terminal of JB where the bus from Singapore end its journey. This is also where you can hop on to buses that connect to other cities in Malaysia. Larkin is about 15 - 20 km away from the city centre. It is also connected to Senai Airport via a shuttle service.
