This is the place we frequently stay at everytime visiting Johor Bahru. My family and I stayed here for one night over the last weekend. The location of this hotel is definitely a place. We got a room facing JB city and Singapore which was superb. My kids really enjoyed the view. The room was clean and comfortable. Room service... More

Travelling from Singapore it is amazing how much better value are hotels in Malaysia, so even travellers on a budget should be able to afford the £35 or so you need to stay here. The Tropical Inn is a typical 3-star hotel but its huge selling-point is the fact that its spacious rooms are at the top of a very... More

The hotel is accepatable. Would be nice if it was spruced up soon, it's a bit worn. Rooms are pretty clean. Beds are very good. Airco works fine. We had a room on the 12 floor with a great view. Breakfast is poor. Poor choice, low quality. Some staff is nice but not all. Some are rather unfriendly.

Stayed there for around 4 days. The hotel is in great location as it is nearby to enter Singapore but unfortunately the carpet smell is really bad. Hope that the hotel mgmt can do something about this.

Not a new hotel, but the rooms are well cared for and clean. The bathroom was simple, but everything worked. Beds very comfortable. Air-conditioning was effective, a little noisy perhaps but if there was other noise, the A/C masked it nicely. Not too many frills here - no mini-bar and minimal amenities (no bottled water for example), no pool, not... More

I was looking up the Internet for a cheap hotel with an internet connection for my internet-addicted husband, and found Tropical Inn. I booked online and found it a convenient and simple process. The hotel itself was trickier to find - we drove up and down the length of Jalan TAR and Jalan Trus before we could find Jalan Gereja,... More

I stayed quite often at this place in the past, due to its proximity with the bus station. Its ideal if one wants to take the early morning bus to Senai. My previous stays have been ok except this one time, which probably will be my last stay there. The counter girl during our checkout was rude and totally uncouth.... More

My husband and I had to travel to JB for a close friend's wedding. Due to tight schedule, we could only stay for one night. I made the booking 2 weeks earlier because the wedding was held during Chinese New Year (public holiday). The online booking thru hotel's website was easy and the hotel's rates are within budget. Since we... More

I stayed two years at the Tropical Inn from August 2002 to December 2004 while working in Johor Bahru, it might only be two star but the food is good and the company at the Gold Bar is great, Thursday night appy hours are the best. Ask for Chief Woon. The owners spent quite a some of money in 2004... More
