Good Hotel in Bukit Mertajam location

everthing are OK, but compare G kelawai hotel service and food, the money you pay for it, not worth at all, is only due to convenient for business trip at Bukit Mertajam area, or else i will choose G kelawai Hotel, pay a little extra can enjoy Happy hour as well

I did it again

It was not my first stay and for sure not my last one at iconic Hotel. In my opinion it’s the best option when you are looking for a hotel in that area. It’s surrounded by all styles of restaurants, bars and shops, and in walking distance to a food court. In addition to the clean and comfortable hotel itself, it’s a great package.

Smoking Room for non-smoking person

I booked a non-smoking room through Hotels.com. But I was offered a smoking room because of lack of communication between the platform and the hotel. Since no other room was available, I was forced to stay in that room for a night. That was terrible. But with the ionizer provided by the hotel, I felt a little better. But this is really poor & I wasn’t offered any discount for this.
