We visited the Banjaran in October 2010 for 3 days (the calendar goes back only until 2011 summer) , as part of a round tour in peninsular Malaysia. The resort is wonderful, beautiful setting, lovely villas, good service. The food is a bit boring compared to the otherwise excellent local food. At this level one should have the opportunity to...

Geothermal hotsprings, limestone caves and beautiful nature got us falling in love with The Banjaran. We stayed in the water villas and it was excellent. Love the geothermal hotsprings and the jacuzzi in our villa. Read more about our stay here: http://goodyfoodies.blogspot.com/2012/04/villas-at-banjaran-hotsprings-retreat.html

I have visited The Banjaran Hotsprings Retreat twice within 6 months but during the first visit I spent a lot of my time in the Steam Cave as it detoxifies you with its natural increase in temperatures to give you a good sauna within about 30 mins. It is so natural in the way it cleanses your skin that you... More

This was by far one of the best locations for a getaway. Had the opportunity to try it out when they were still testing the waters and allowed us to bring our three kids along. We stayed in one of the Garden Villa's that had a larger plunge pool and a large outdoor Jacuzzi which was fed with the geothermal... More

The Banjaran is the ideal choice if you're looking for a short romantic getaway. The surrounding landscape of limestone hills and geothermal hotsprings is amazing. Service is fantastic but dont expect to indulge your appetite over there. The hotel is based on a wellness concept and all the food/drinks served is healthy and nutritious. They dont even serve rice!! Apart... More

We had a family get away from KL during the Chinese New Year break. Signage to the resort well posted for first timers to Ipoh like us. Given that this resort is in the middle of tropical forest, it was inevitable that crawlies would be uninvited guests. Although the hotel staff sprayed insecticide in the evening, we woke up to...
