Eight Mentigi was recommended to me by another GuestHouse I really loved staying at in another city, so naturally I went there pretty confident. The place was really not hard to find, and really close to the main area of the town (where you can suprisingly enough find a Starbucks and plenty of cheap food). I took a double room... More

This was an ok budget option in a good location just off the main road. We had a twin room with ensuite which was quite shabby and a little musty smelling. The communal areas however were really nice with big comfy sofa's and outdoor tables and chairs. One guy on reception was quite offhand with us but the other was... More

The condition of the room is average. But its quite noisy at night, since the room no 2 is very near to d reception. Should provide the towel floor for the toilet (very slippery). Heater is functioning good though not too hot. Should provide the 'KIBLAT' direction for the muslim. Advantage for the backpackers, but not for a big family... More

I was glad to find an affordable place with a private room available. But room 10 is next to entrance and hangout area...only window /vent style allows all noise and smoke to pass through.. So, if you're a smoker and stay up late, it's good for you. No regular housecleaning while visit so if you want more towels or service,... More

Eight Mentigi GH just opened the doors. The name says it all, it's located on Jalan Mentigi Nr. 8, just a few steps behind Twin Pines GH. Very warm and friendly staff combined with clean and nice rooms make a stay in this GH just perfect. You can book tours here as well which is highly recommended since Eight GH... More

We found Eight Mentigi to be a bit too budget for our needs and didnt really enjoy our stay. In fairness, the staff seemed quite helpful and welcoming, but it was a bit too grotty for what we wanted. The bathroom was very tiny, not clean, no hot water and the toilet and sink were wobbly and falling off the... More

Stayed here for 1 night: RM90 for a double room with attached bathroom. We liked the fact that we had to take out our shoes before we enter the guest house. Made the place really clean. There was free wifi and tables/chairs at the courtyard where we could sit and enjoy the cool air. Parking was available too. Our only... More

Thank you for choosing to stay with us in Eight Mentigi. We regret to hear about your issues with the shower heater. There have been some problems with some older model heaters and we are in the midst of upgrading them. More

Quite near to the Tanah Rata bus station, located bit inside from the main road. The staff are helpful and nice. A bit overpriced for a RM 80 double bed with an attached bathroom tough, as there is no breakfast provide. Coffee/ tea available for RM 2, and self serviced. More

When we arrived into Tanah Rata my girlfriend was feeling very ill from the windy bus journey and Eight Mengiti couldn't have done more to accommodate us. We were checked in quickly with an en-suite bathroom and they helped us to plan our time in the Cameron Highlands. We found our room to be very clean and the hostel conveniently... More
