Breakfast Buffet Delight

The breakfast buffet was a highlight of my stay. The ambiance was lively with great décor, delicious food, and even an entertaining flash mob by the staff! It truly made my mornings special. I loved trying the various dishes, especially the cucur udang. It was a good experience overall.

Convenient Parking Options

Parking was hassle-free at Kinta Riverfront Hotel. They offer a reasonable one-time fee of RM 4 for basement parking. Alternatively, I opted for the convenience of valet parking in front of the hotel for RM 20. It's great to have such options while staying at a hotel.

Well-Designed Bathroom

The bathroom was spacious and featured a great rainfall shower head, even though the movable shower head provided excellent pressure too. It was a pleasurable experience, and I loved the fact that they included refreshing local Ipoh coffee in the room. Overall, it added to the comfort of my stay.

My stay at this hotel was a mixed experience. While the rooms were not clean and properly maintained, they were in good condition and spacious, equipped with a big bathroom and bathtub. All the necessary facilities were available, but some areas needed better maintenance. The service was satisfactory overall, with a need to wait for service at times. The staff were hospitable except for a few instances where my requests were not met promptly. The hotel's location was excellent, opposite the nicely lighted riverfront, in the strategic area of Ipoh town, and close to nature and various attractions. However, the dining options were limited to a few local Malaysian dishes, although they were tasty and served with a good view. The facilities were decent, but some areas could use improvement. The price was reasonable for the value offered.

My stay at the hotel was a mix of ups and downs. The rooms were spacious, with large bathrooms, but unfortunately, my master bedroom started leaking water. The bed and pillows were comfortable, although I found only one towel provided. The service was excellent overall, with staff fulfilling my request to change rooms promptly, except for the porter who seemed a bit aloof. The location by the river and opposite the beautifully lit riverfront was a major plus, being at the city center of Ipoh. The dining experience for vegetarians was acceptable, featuring good views at the coffee house with a limited selection of local Malaysian dishes. The facilities were decent, though I felt the price was slightly high for the value received.
