AAli_bra_braWe booked a stay at Fraser Place Puteri Harbour for 3 people to celebrate my wife’s birthday and opted to pay extra for a room with a ”Sea View.” We also reached out beforehand to ask for a small birthday surprise for her.
Unfortunately, the ”sea view” was a major letdown. Instead of an open, pleasant coastal view, it was mostly looking out over surrounding developments and construction with very little actual water in sight—definitely not what you hope for when booking a special occasion room.
On a positive note, I do want to give credit to the hotel staff for their service and effort. They did prepare a birthday cake for my wife as requested. While it wasn't set up in the room prior to our arrival as hoped—it showed up in our fridge on the second day after we returned from our day out—we still really appreciate that they remembered and made the gesture.

What was done well:
The overall environment was clean and tidy, and the check-in process was smooth. Thank you for the hospitality!
Areas for improvement:
1. Nighttime noise: Around 12:00 AM and past 1:00 AM, the noise from the air conditioning external unit/main system was quite noticeable, which disturbed our rest. Please kindly check the equipment operation.
2. Daytime renovation noise: Around 10:00 AM, there was construction noise from next door. We hope guests can be informed in advance, and please also coordinate with the neighbors to avoid construction during resting hours as much as possible.
Other minor suggestions:
- The washing machine lacks a drying function, and there are no drying tools provided. We hope clothes hangers can be provided.
- It is recommended to replenish towels, tea sets, laundry detergent, garbage bags, and drinking water daily to make the stay experience even better.
- There are relatively few dining and shopping options in the surrounding area, making getting around a bit inconvenient.
Overall, it's a nice place to stay. Fixing these minor issues would make it even more perfect! Wishing your business continued success 😊
Space Residency Premium Suite Near KSL Mall by Nest Home

TTentenAmaiodinThe unit is spacious, clean and comfortable. The bed is bouncy and we slept well. The place also comes with useful amenities like a fridge, electric stove, oven, iron and hair dryer. However, there is no water dispenser or water filter provided. Basic utensils such as plates, spoons and bread knives are available, but there are no forks, bowls or other cooking tools, so you may need to bring your own or purchase separately if you plan to cook.
The downside was the check-in experience. We were only given the access card without the bedroom key, and ended up stuck outside for almost an hour trying to figure out how to enter. The owner’s response was quite late, which made the situation frustrating. The TV in the room was also not functioning. On the positive side, the owner did allow a late check-out at 1pm.
Overall, the stay was comfortable after settling in, but the initial access issue and late response affected the first impression.

BBeautysilverThe room was spotless and everything felt brand new, which made for a very comfortable stay. It was also spacious and bright. The hotel's location is super convenient, and the restaurant upstairs is definitely worth checking out – they have great food, drinks, and entertainment. Shopping is also a breeze with the mall right next door, offering plenty of dining and retail options. The surrounding area is lovely. I'll definitely choose to stay here again!

CColin HuI appreciate that we were able to check in early and get to check out slightly later. However, the condition of the room was not fantastic as the toilet bowl was smelly, and we realised that there were stains of **** on the top of the 'flushing'. I had to keep splash water to remove it. Then the wall near the closet, the whole ***** of 'deco' came out followed by the metal ***** below the bar fridge. I may reconsider coming back next time. Water park, we paid to go in and yet we saw people brought in food to eat. Not sure how clean the water will be.
Positive side: staff service was good. Morning breakfast was nice especially the noodle soup station.

MMissk.shoutoutJB 2D1N Quick Escape: Horizon Mall & New Hotel Soft Launch Review!
The Crew: 2 Adults, 2 Boys
💸 Total Damage: ~$700
📍 Stop 1: Horizon Hills / Horizon Mall
The Good: DMC is top value (sign up as a member!). The outdoor playground is marvellous for burning off energy. 🛝
The Bad: Zero shade at the playground—the weather was brutally hot. ☀️ Limited food options around.
The Ugly: Hao Ke Kopi was a massive letdown. The houseflies were no joke—groups of fat, juicy ones buzzing around everywhere! Lost our appetite instantly. 🪰
Quick Fix: Ended up grabbing emergency snacks and drinks at Watsons and Village Grocer before heading to the hotel. 🛒
Stop 2: Soft-Launch Hotel (30-min drive)
Check-in & Parking: Smooth and seamless breeze!
Room: Missed out on the exclusive Cockpit Room (there’s only 1 right now!). Still a solid, decent room size with free mini-bar snacks/drinks and Bvlgari toiletries that smell amazing. (Note: A few flying insects around, likely due to the soft launch).
Pools & Fun: 3 swimming pools! The kids loved the infinity pool with water guns and floats. The slide was fun, though the boys said it had static/friction when going down.
⚠️ Safety Hazard: Management needs to put anti-slip mats at the lift area immediately—swimmers’ wet feet made it super slippery and I took a really bad fall!
🍽️ Food & Dining Reality
Poolside Bar: Not open yet.
Japanese Restaurant: Very disappointing (3/10).
Saved by: The Chinese restaurant on-site was actually good and uncrowded.
Night Highlights: A lively night bazaar right outside, capped off with a surprise 5-minute fireworks display at 10 PM!
✨ Final Thoughts
Verdict: 2.5/5 🌟
Pros: Clean, brand new, some vibes, kids abit entertained.
Cons: Food needs serious improvement, safety issue at lifts, soft-launch bugs.
💬 OVER TO YOU:
Would you give a hotel a chance during its soft launch, or do you prefer waiting until all the restaurants and amenities are 100% ready? Let me know in the comments! 👇

AAnonymous User**Capri by Fraser JB — 4/5**
Overall, a pleasant and comfortable stay. The room was clean and spacious, the staff were friendly, and the location was convenient for exploring JB. Facilities and service were both good.
The main area for improvement is the food. The breakfast/dining options could use better variety, fresher replenishment, and more consistent taste. If the food quality improves, this would easily be a 5-star stay for me.
Would still consider returning for the comfort, location, and service.

CCChuanyouceAbsolutely fantastic, this resort was an unexpected surprise! It was a very last-minute decision, but it's now one I wholeheartedly recommend!
There's a free shuttle from the pier that gets you there in about 5-10 minutes.
The hotel lobby is super picturesque; you just want to relax as soon as you walk in. The complimentary welcome drink was delicious.
The room was spacious, and they provided a lot of amenities. The view from the room was absolutely stunning!
There are two pools and two bars, both highly recommended.
Breakfast didn't have many options, and the taste was just average.
I also tried the hotel's spa on the second day – highly recommended!
The service was excellent!

JJackson Kong 老江I checked into a 'Tropical View King Room' at this hotel on September 28th. I had certain expectations for a 5-star resort, but the actual experience was quite disappointing and definitely didn't live up to its supposed star rating. The overall quality fell significantly short of what a 5-star hotel should offer. Considering the price of over MYR 800 per night, this stay was truly unsatisfying and certainly not good value for money.
During check-in, there was only one official staff member at the front desk, accompanied by someone who seemed to be an intern. There were other guests checking in before me, and the staff member was processing a couple's check-in, which was an incredibly slow process. I ended up waiting for about 10 minutes before it was my turn.
For a 5-star resort costing over MYR 800 per night, such inefficient check-in procedures and seemingly insufficient front desk staffing are unacceptable. Guests paying a high price shouldn't have to experience waiting in line at the front desk.
The room was on the 3rd floor, approximately 42 square meters. The toilet and bathroom were separate, which in itself wasn't an issue. However, the privacy design between the toilet and the room was utterly baffling – you have to adjust the curtain above the bathtub, otherwise, almost everything inside the toilet is directly visible from the room.
Even more unacceptable was that the so-called 'curtain' didn't truly solve the privacy and light-blocking issues. When the toilet light was on at night, the light still seeped through the curtain into the room, significantly affecting the sleep of guests accustomed to sleeping in complete darkness. If this design is considered a standard for a 5-star resort room, it's truly incomprehensible.
Now, about the balcony.
The 'view' was nothing to write home about. The balcony primarily overlooked trees and a large artificial green carpet outside. During my stay, I even saw two staff members outside the balcony inspecting a drainage outlet or dealing with similar facility issues. Guests pay for a so-called resort view room, only to face staff walking around outside their window, which severely compromises any sense of privacy.
Even more disappointing was the presence of ants on the balcony, and the metal railing showed clear signs of rust. For a hotel positioning itself as 5-star with a price tag exceeding MYR 800 per night, these details reveal a maintenance level that makes it difficult to feel any sense of luxury.
The pool wasn't particularly large either. For a hotel that focuses on the resort experience, if the public facilities aren't outstanding, then the rooms, views, service, and overall maintenance should be even more impeccable. Unfortunately, this stay did not convey that to me.
The breakfast, however, was quite good, which was one of the few satisfying aspects of this stay.
In summary:
The biggest takeaway from this stay is that the price is 5-star, but the actual experience falls far short of what a 5-star standard should be.
For over MYR 800 per night, guests expect excellent facilities, good maintenance, comfortable sleep, sufficient privacy, and service commensurate with the price. However, from check-in efficiency, room privacy design, lighting issues, balcony view, cleanliness details, facility maintenance, to the overall resort atmosphere, I didn't feel that the price was justified.
Specifically, the toilet light affecting sleep, lack of privacy on the balcony, presence of ants, rusty railings, and staff activity outside the balcony – individually, these might not be fatal flaws. But when they all appear simultaneously in a room at a supposed 5-star resort costing over MYR 800 per night, the overall experience becomes extremely disappointing.
To put it bluntly: if you just look at the hotel's pricing, it certainly has the appearance of a 5-star hotel; but if you truly measure it by the guest experience, I can only say it's '5-star pricing, with far from a 5-star experience.'
Unless the hotel can significantly improve its room privacy design, facility maintenance, service efficiency, and overall management, I personally believe that at this price point, it offers no discernible value, and I have no intention of returning.

Had a lovely weekend stay here to celebrate my husband's birthday.
It was our first hotel stay together, and we really enjoyed the peaceful atmosphere and comfortable room.
The staff were friendly, and everything was pleasant.
Thank you for making our short getaway a memorable one.
Highly recommended!
