Me and my boyfriend celebrated our anniversary here. We are truly surprised, the food and service are perfect. And they give us free dessert due to the celebration. The environment is comfortable, crews are perfectly friendly. Should have known this restaurant earlier!

Brought the family out in JB for the day Shopping / Eating / Massaging, ..etc. Finished the day @Tech Sing Restaurant in Taman Sentosa. Food quality remains good but prices have gone up quite substantially over the past few years... A good meal costing MYR180 used to be able to feed 8pax but now only 4~5pax....

While staying at Hotel Jen we spent every afternoon up here enjoying the pool, the view and the great snacks. Please note snacks are a full meal so if ordering make sure you share them as they are large portions. One nachos can feed 3 kids or 2 adults.

Due to business I frequently travel to JB but has never stayed at this hotel. However, as a Hilton member I often stay in one of their hotels. We were looking at a venue for a training workshop and I thought this was the ideal opportunity to check it out.
The check-in was friendly with a hot cookie. I was able to check-in using my app, though still had to queue like others. Not sure there is much benefit?
The room was the one I requested. I loved the fact I could order my preferred pillow - which ensured a nice rest. However, I do not like sleeping under too much bedding.
The shower was a 10/10 - very enjoyable and you can even watch telly if you want to (privacy screen available if needed).
I visited the a la crate restaurant one night, and the service was great and food very enjoyable.
Other nights I tried the room service out, as there are not many other places to eat close nearby. My biggest disappointment was the location.
It is walking distance from big shopping centres but I did not want to walk for 15 minutes in an unknown area.
The gym is open 24/7 and the equipment is good, though space is limited. I would have preferred a bigger space.
Overall, a comfortable stay for the week, but if I am honest, it would be a good back-up but I prefer my regular hotel.

Having a special occasion with Tosca. Great service from the team especially Tejah. We enjoy ourself with the cosy ambiance. Food quality yet to improved, by charging one of the highest price in JB we do expect some quality food served, one of the ingredient in the starter was missing. Soup was a bit salty. Main course slight disappointment. Dessert was fantastic. Hope the next return food quality will be better.
