Firstly, let me say that we were aware that Kuala Tahan is "out in the sticks" & were certainly not expecting the same standard as 4-star city accommodation. However, a number of issues detracted from what could have been a more pleasant experience. We booked a double room, upstairs in the main house with balcony access & a shared bathroom.... More

We had a very pleasant stay at Travellers home, however it could have been a lot better with a few small improvements. Firstly its relaxing, quiet, clean( apart from our shared bathroom). The meals are wonderfully prepared and should suit most. The staff are friendly and helpful. Our double room was spacious , however the mattress was very thin, my... More

We booed Travellers Home because of good critics, but we were actually very disapointed. Guesthouse is about 3 km away from the river and the village, which is not aproblem, because there is a shutlle available for each activity you have. If they don't forget you of course, what happened to us. This was rather late, at around ten in... More

We choose it according to many positive reviews: it was very disappointing. Our cabin was in miserable conditions: a deep smell of mould greeted us when we entered the room, the linen may have bean clean but I'm not sure, as everything was smelling musty. There were only two worn-out towels, one for each of us. The bathroom was DIRTY... More

Travellers' Home is a great family and backpackers' inn just next door (and across the river) from Taman Negara. Although probably a little more expensive than the average backpackers, especially the family chalets, this inn provides excellent service in what is basically right in the middle of Malaysia's premier forest. Travelling as a family the simply furnished chalets were fine,... More

We really wanted to stay at this homestay, as it had been highly recommended in travel guides etc, but communication problems and the unhelpful attitude of staff (at least my perception) prevented us making a booking. It is probably a lovely place once you've managed to make a booking, so the owners should consider looking into that. I tried booking... More

Jack, the manager is a real plus to this simple but nice place and helps you organise your stay in beautiful Taman Negara, a stay that should last at least 2 days, meaning 3 nights (since it takes you 2.30 hours to reach the place by boat, quite q unique experience). The family chalets are simple and basic, no great... More

Overall: We would definitely recommend this place! Room: We stayed in a bungalow, they also have rooms. The bungalows are quite large, but very basic and not very clean. Also there was no daily housekeeping. Price was quite high compared to the rest of Malaysia, but I belive prices for accomodation in Taman Negara are higher overall. Also the price... More

Travellers' Home is a fantastic place to stay while exploring Taman Negara National Park, and even though I haven't stayed anywhere else around here, I would wholeheartedly recommend to stop your search and just stay at Travellers' Home. The property is beautiful - with a big, clean house which has a few rooms upstairs and a few shared areas to... More
