Infront hotel is local transport hub, close to busy road. 100m to Gaya Night Street. 15minutes walk to CentrePoint Mall and Waterftont. Bedding a bit dated. Buffet breakfast is basic but is ok.

If given a chance I will still go back and use this hotel..its not like the high end ones but considering its price, Dreamtel is really good. Very convenient and even the check in and check out is very hassle free.

I had two different bookings and they arranged for me to stay in same room. Great breakfast and central location with nice outlook to park and/or water. Only problem air conditioner located to close to bed & control fixed to wall.

Loved the room size and the view facing the padang. Had a great view of the fireworks for the Malaysia Day celebration.
Breakfast spread can be further improve but loving the staff warmth & friendliness especially the trainee by the name Ms. Afrijinia.
Housekeeping was super efficient and had the room clean & tidied during our breakfast time.
Overall, very happy with the stay and will definitely return again when I'm in KK.

Good location. Breakfast average. Room allotted was small and not very clean but was moved to a bigger and cleaner room the next day. Reception staff very helpful and polite.

Had a great time in KK. Your breakfast staff needs to pay attention to little details lile refilling the coffee machines BEFORE they run out of milk, and making sure there are serving spoons for rice, etc. please try to clean up the rat situation in alley in next building..? So many cats, cannot kill the rats? :)

Took airport taxi to hotel (30MYR) and haggled for the trip back to airport via taxi (25MYR). There was a stop for the airport bus in front of the hotel (and to the right a little bit) but with an infant and taxi rates where we are from, we did not think twice for the convenience of the taxi ride. Maybe if there were only 2 of us and not much bags we will take the bus the next time around.
Hotel is decent enough. Looks clean as it seems like it has been recently renovated. Breakfast is nothing fancy, but fills you up. There was a little variety on the succeeding days, but not much. The room is smallish, but comfy enough. They had a water heater - perfect for sanitizing our infant's stuff - and a safe, and these were a big plus for us. The flat panel TV only had 10 channels, mostly in a foreign language, but we contented ourselves with the Discovery Channel. The room AC did not cool when we first turned it on. Called for help and engineering arrived 10 minutes later. Took about 5 minutes to fix. AC still not very cool, but we thought it was just cool enough. Hotel staff - most were polite, some indifferent. They spoke English but could not understand sometimes.
Hotel is very close to Gaya St., where we loved eating cheap and delicious Malaysian food. A small 7-11 is a few steps to the left of hotel entrance. The food market by the sea was a 15-min walk away. There was a park next to the hotel.
If you expect what you pay for, this hotel will exceed expectations

i stayed here for 3 days 2 nights and it was a good stay. the staffs were helpful and all smiley which makes it easier for us to deal with. the room was also nice. i just hope i got a room with a window though so that i can see the weather around the area. it is conveniently in the kk city centre. you can walk from the hotel and venture the kk city easily. the breakfast was ok. its just a decent breakfast spread. i just wish the noodles or nasik goreng cooked were a little more tastier. the taste was quite bland to be honest. overall, its such a convenient stay for me and ill surely recommend this place to my friends & families.
