Hotel location was convenient and accessible - so close to CIQ, malls and eating places. Decor looks relatively new and modern. The only thing about the hotel I didn’t like was the lifts from the ground floor do not lead to the guest rooms. You will need to transfer to another set of lifts from the lobby on the 8th floor. This I feel wasn’t convenient if you are traveling with young kids and have to carry lots of kids essentials or traveling with elderly parents The ground floor also do not have a porter to help with loading/unloading the guests’ luggages/ shopping bags from ride hailing cars/ taxis. There wasn’t a sign to indicate upon arrival that the lobby was on 8th floor, thankfully a kind guest informed me of the location. My hunble suggestion - the hotel should have a Conceirge desk to help with directions and infos and luggage storing room at the ground floor., so guests could continue shopping and dining in the vicinity upon checkout and not having to go up again to the the 8th floor to collect their luggages. I was lucky to have a kind staff (I think his name is Shafiq) assist me with my 4 large shopping bags and luggages from the 8th floor to the ground floor. Overall a pleasant stay.

Lovely one-night stay. Comfortable bed. Delicious food @in-room dining. Reception staff efficient & courteous. Breakfast not too bad although my omelette order did not arrive (despite having what I thought is a great system of order which reduces queue & time) - gave up after 30 minutes.

Everything ok except 2 issues: only 1 available lift from ground floor to the lobby and its always crowded. The other lifts out of irder. The other issue : the arrival swamp of wasps at the swimming pool that make it unsafe.

Convenient location for staycation with malls right next to hotel. Easy to travel around using grab. Our room was comfortable. They provide so called soft and hard pillows but hard pillows are still soft.

1st time staying at Holiday Inn JB City Center. As it rained so much during our stay, we can easily cross over to the malls for our meals.
The only thing is we can hear the water sound when someone is showering. Nevertheless, we would gladly stay here again.

Repeated stay. Convenience of the location is a big plus. Staff could be more welcoming than just be functional. Clean premises but hope maintenence of the property can be better. Toilet seat misaligned should have been highlighted by housekeeping staff to repair personnel rather than hand the room to next guests status quo.

I used to stay at Holiday Inn at various locations. All my previous stay were always satisfactory. I have also booked Holiday Inn Times Square, NYC in Sep 2024.
The Holiday Inn City Center JB conditions looks new to me. Check-in and check-out was smooth. However, this time round we were disappointed on the bed fitting and the shower robe towel. At 11:30pm, we noticed that the shower robe towel was not cleaned and it looked like someone has used it before and not washed. When we were about to get into the bed, We noticed that all the pillows, bedsheet have a oily smell. It is obvious that the pillow case and the bedsheet were not changed. We called front desk and they sent the staff to get them changed within reasonable time. I should say the service and response time to rectify the issue is acceptable. However, this incidents should not have happened in the first place. We are disappointed as we trusted the name Holiday Inn that we have great experience in the past. That is also the reason that I always book my hotels with Holiday Inn. I hope this is a one time incident as I will be staying at Holiday Inn in Phoenix, US and also in NYC in Sep 2024.

In the middle of the night we were woken up as the air con seems to be off. Called counter then the error code was gone and air con was on . Didn’t had a good sleep and was disappointed .
Room was not smelling good as there is a manly musky smell.
Room 1316 .

Great location, just next to the woodlands checkpoint. Easy access to City Square and Komtar.
Clean room and friendly staff. The staff were clearly overwhelmed at breakfast. Cutlery were missing on the tables and we had to wait over 40 mins for our omelette, which is the longest I recall waiting for eggs at any hotel. The buffet had many empty trays that were not replenished. One of the staff was overheard telling some guests that the restaurant gets very busy after 9am, so it's better they come earlier.
4.0
The lifts were down this time during my stay. Too many guests were all just waiting for the service of a single lift. The air con can go from cold to normal room temperature then cold and normal room temperature again throughout the whole day,especially at night. But i like the hotel's location,checking in and out hassle free. Hotel's breakfast is nice though it's always the same food everytime i visited. Staffs are very friendly,always do their best to explain and help if guests have any enquiries or problems. This is my 5th or 6th stay in Holiday Inn JB City Center.

The good: Hotel is modern. Well-renovated. Good location with Komtar and City Square. We registered our car and among the staff we met, the security guard was the most helpful and service-oriented staff. During breakfast, one staff saw that I was carrying my plate in one hand and a baby in the other so she helped me carry the plate to my table which I really appreciate. The bad: Room 2902. Room smelled musty. Non-carpeted area of the floor was sticky to walk on. Bathroom was disgusting. First glance, it looked nice. Then I saw the stains and mould and dust and dirt. I felt really “ick” to use it. We stayed in a twin room and one bed smelled of body odour. Bed too firm for my liking. Breakfast was a chaotic mess. We had to find a table ourselves. There were no cutleries on the table and when I went to a counter where I saw cutleries in the drawers, it was only then the staff stopped me from taking cutleries myself, and set our table. To order eggs, you have to write on a paper how you want your eggs done. It states the order will be sent to our table but I might be mistaken. Orders were not sent. We had to collect it from the egg station. Where there was a “pyramid stack” of cooked uncollected egg orders. There was a play area for kids which is such a great idea but it was filthy and I was reluctant to let my daughter play there. Even though breakfast was already paid for, I skipped breakfast the next day and we left at 9am as we couldn’t wait to check out.
