The 10 best hotels in Batu Ferringhi, Malaysia
The beaches are a huge draw, but there’s so much more to do in this Malaysian hotspot. Frolic with the delicate residents of a butterfly farm, then explore the fragrant landscape of tropical spice garden and fruit farms. The massive collection of dolls, games and models at the Toy Museum brings joy to kids and kids at heart. Save some energy for the Night Market, a lively scene of stalls where good-natured bargaining skills come in handy.

Breakfast tables labelled occupied but no one on the table
Reviewed By ThanesG1So,I did a 3 days 2 night stay at Shangri la Rasa Sayang..It was a family gathering.We walked in for breakfast on 5/6/22 at 7.45 in the morning looking for a long table and somewhere near the buffet area so the elder ones need not walk too far to grt to the buffet area.My eyes caught a table which was empty,and i was gonna sit there as it fitted my family well but it was labelled occupied with no one sitting on it.So i asked the usherer n she told me it is occupied,but i told her no one is sitting there..and she told me again in raised voice, it is occupied!About half an hr after we were seated at a middle table where it was quite humid n my daughter even got a mosquito bite, a family comes in and occupies the place with no questions asked.My question is why is there favouritsm/booking system, i dunno racism?? and labels such as occupied in a 5 star hotel for "certain" guests.It should be a first come first serve basis.We all woke up early so we could get good seats and instead we had to undergo this.It was a good holiday till this happened.Leaves you with a bitter taste in your mouth.Do not think I will revisit this place again!!I dont think i got my money's worth!!

3rd time back. GSR used to be legendary.
Reviewed By virtualling3rd visit. There's something different about this place after 4 years of being back here. The first two times, 2016 and 2018 were spectacular. There were way more activities and The Kid's Club was up and running then. Not this time, post-lockdown. This time, it wasn't crowded as we were there just before the mid year school holidays started. Good timing for us. There isn't the ice cream freezer anymore at breakfast. Breakfast spread was pretty much the same over a few days. However, quality of food is better than some 5 star hotels I've been in KL, taste wise. No complaints about the room (I had the Exec Seaview, King). The premise is kept clean and the staff were great. I could tell that there were lesser staff than before. I would like to honor the staff members who do their best at their job including housekeeping. Just a tad sad that we don't get that excitement to return anymore. GSR used to be known to me as committed with the kid's activities. Without the Kid's Club, it's lost its cool factor. I could be in Desaru or Langkawi. Another thing they had taken off is the free shuttle bus that used to go to Stairs Quay Mall and Gurney. This place was once legendary to me. Thanks for the memories. Once again, thanks to all the staff members. Keep it up.

In need of a refurbishment
Reviewed By sheppo_8Breakfast is the worst i’ve had in asia if you like chinese food for breakfast it’s fine but apart from eggs and toast there’s nothing else for the westerners, they have gone out there way and give us 4 packets of butter a day and i think that was because they had seen we had brought our own as they only have margarine in a bowl, fruit is melon and dry pineapple, asked for a cappuccino and was told we had to pay extra for that. The lobby bar is only open at certain times and when it’s the barman’s days off doesn’t open at all, and there’s no other amenities at the hotel apart from the pool which is kept nice as are the grounds. The rooms are clean but in need of an upgrade the furniture is very tired.

Doesn’t live up to the old fame! Shame…
Reviewed By IanCCCCCwhat a disappointment on the room products and maintenance of the interior of rooms, mould in toilet ,cracked skirting board, bed linen that you won’t even see on hostel (yellowish and not fresh nor crips). Broken shower head…… smelly aircon! Insects poop around the bathtub at the nice terrance…… Only common area has the decent feeling. Some reno work going on so you won’t enjoy quiet swimming session (when the pool area looks very nice). What a pity!

Don’t judge a book by its cover
Reviewed By ch00sen1The building where the room is placed is very dodgy. However the moment u step in to their hotel you will be amazed with Service, friendliness,design and cleanliness. Very well managed and amazed how a small space can be managed such a way. Breakfast is prepared internally no option but I think it’s fine. Coffee is free flow. Would recommend this place

Exceeds for a budget
Reviewed By LifesatravelFor a budget motel - very comfortable, extremely clean and friendly service. Better than some 4 star hotels I've stayed. Good location - close to beach, cafes and convenience shops. Quiet surroundings.
