Top Kuantan Hotel Reviews

Hyatt Regency Kuantan Resort

Hyatt Regency Kuantan Resort

10/10 Excellent
"We stayed in a sea view room from 20-22 Sep 2026, having flown in via Scoot flight from Singapore. Check in was efficient, fast and smooth. We were fortunate and appreciative that the front desk staff was able give us a room right away. Our two nights' stay was excellent. Room .was spacious and it was cleaned and made up quickly during the two days we were there. Great job done by Housekeeping! The staff we met were warm and friendly and made us feel very welcomed, from front desk staff to the gardener. Teluk Chempedak beach was very clean and well maintained. So top marks to the local authorities for this effort . We had a nice conversation with the bubbly guest relations staff (Ms Marsya(?), I think). We noted that she proactively engaged the guests, presumably to find out about their experiences at the resort. To sum up, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would come back again."
