Merlin Inn Resort Cameron Highlands

High tea with high prices

by Restless-in-kl about Jim Thompson @ Cameron Highlands Resort

As the brand new Cameron Highlands Resort is the most expensive hotel in Cameron Highlands, I wanted to take a peek at the grounds of this posh place especially its spa. Decided to have high tea and enjoy the ambience.

High tea comes at a steep price of US$20 per person. You are given a nice pot of tea, big strawberries with 3 types of sauces (chocolate, clotted cream and vanilla sauce), scones with homemade strawberry jam, finger sandwiches and 2 savouries (puffs). All very small size servings (I would call it "dainty"!)

The strawberries, jam and scones were lovely but the rest of the stuff were not that good. So, it's only worth while going there if you're looking for a comfortable spot to spend the afternoon in a big armchair, a good book and enjoying the gardens, pools of the hotel.

Hello Adam, frankly speaking if you want to go to Cameron Highland better you go during a regular days because it always full house during the weekend. For the hotel you can choose among these three. Those are Cameron Highland Resort, Strawberry Park Resort or Equatorial Cameron Highlands. Those are among the best hotels in Cameron Highland ( based on my experience..!!!). Others i am not so sure. I am sorry Adam. Normally people will go by car go to Cameron Highlands. Because the bus services are so limited. Also for sure you wish to go to many interesting places at Cameron Highland by your own.I hope that my expalnation will help you Adam.

"Beautiful Scenery"

Cameron Highland is located at range of mountains called Titiwangsa in the state of Pahang, Malaysia between 1370-1700 metres above sea level. Of course it has a cool climate up there that became the perfect place to grow tea and vegetables. U can see beautiful scenery of tea plantation on your side while go up to the top of the mountain.What I like most when each time I went there is tasting the strawberry filled with hot chocolate that can be found at the shops along the main road or at night market at Brinchang.

"Smoke House"

There are also good accomodation u can find like YTL Cameron Highland Resort, The Lakehouse Cameron Highlands, Equatorial Hotel, Strawberry Park Resort Hotel, Heritage Hotel and Ye Olde Smokehouse Hotel and Restaurant and many more.The most I like is Ye Olde Smokehouse Hotel and Restaurant because of its building itself look like an old english house. The room rate is quite expensive for me. I think its around MYR400 and above per night.Eventhough u didn't plan to sleep there, u can also have meals there. Once you step at the Smokehouse Hotel, you will noticed that you are in your own place for those who are came from west country.

"Transportation From Kuala Lumpur-Cameron Highland"

From Kuala Lumpur, you can take a bus that provide by travel agencies that can be found easily in Kuala Lumpur town. The journey from Kuala Lumpur will took about 2 hours and a half to reach Tapah and from Tapah, it will took around 2 hours more to reach up there.
