Last Thaipusam holidays, I stayed at ioi Palm Garden Hotel after work. I won a 2 days 1 night stay during a Lucky Draw last month and decided to use it during the holidays. Yippee.
The review:
Reception & Staff: Sangat2 mesra, extremely welcoming. The hotel was quite 'old' so I didn't have much expectation at first - just planned to have a normal good stay and head back home. Upon entering, the staff would welcome you from 3 blocks away. Ok, that's a bit exaggerated, but what I'm trying to say is that they're supeer nice.
5 stars.
Room: I got the Heliconia room. Two single beds. It was a joint room. 229 or 219? Forgot the number. The connecting door lock was quite loose. They need to fix that. They had all the basic stuff. I'm not sure how many stars this hotel has, but they got you covered in terms of towels, toiletries (soap, shampoo, moisturizing cream), hairdryer, iron and ironing board, torchlight, minibar, hangers, indoor slippers, There's also a bathtub, hanging clothes line that you can attach by yourself, sejadah, kiblat, security box.
4 stars because the tap water smelled too strongly of steel.
Breakfast: They gave free breakfast. RM25 for additional pax before 12am. RM40 if you pay up front at the cafe. Breakfast was OK. Had your typical Malaysian and Western food like Nasi Lemak, Mee Goreng, Mixed Veggies, Bread, Croissant, Dimsum, Yogurt, etc.
4.5 Stars because the pastries tasted...not yummy. =P
Upon checkout they would give you a form to fill in asking about your stay. If you have a staff you'd like to recommend you could also write it down in the form. There weren't any deposit fees. It was a nice stay. Recommended to families and middle income groups. Right nest to ioi Putrajaya Mall.
