Sarang Paloh Heritage Stay
4.1/524 Reviews

Sarang Paloh Heritage Stay

Ipoh|0.54km from Galeri Aminuddin Baki
Paloh was a malay & orang asli (“native”) kampung (“village”) that has been around from at least the 18th century. Apparently the names comes from the founder of the village itself Toh Paloh. Paloh, or palung, also means a depression in the ground that holds water, or a fishing hole to catch fish. It is believed that Paloh was also a boat dock in the past. Some other views hold that the Hakka were the founders of Paloh, and only later came the Cantonese. According to this theory, the origin of the name is a symbolic reference to the dams that were constructed along the Kinta River for fishing purposes. These dams were referred to as “Pa-Lo” in the Cantonese dialect and eventually the area became known as Paloh. Paloh today has of course become the heart of the city of Ipoh. In this old part of the city pre-war Shop Houses line the streets, with a predominantly Chinese character. “Sarang” is a malay word meaning nest, hence “Sarang Paloh” means “The Nest in Paloh”, evoking the image of the hotel as a place of rest for the weary traveller. Located on Jalan Sultan Iskandar (formerly Hugh Low Street), Sarang Paloh is located in pre-war two storey shop houses that originally were the premises of a Goldsmith and a Bank more than 90 years ago. The façade of one of the buildings still has the name of the Goldsmiths on its façade in English, Chinese and Malay (jawi script), with the stately bank building still has the name of Overseas-Chinese Banking Corporation Limited on its front. Across the road, Sarang Paloh has another shophouse of which the ground floor has been converted into a carpark. If you have a car, this is where you would park. Parking is complimentary, but you must exercise caution, turning right into the shophouse entrance as Jalan Sultan Iskandar is a pretty high traffic road, and the building inside is quite narrow, with the cars having to be parked bumper to bumper, in two rows. Exit is out through the back of the shophouse into a back lane. Do bear in mind that if the shophouse is full of cars, you may get boxed in by other parked cars and not able to exit! Fortunately this did not happen to us while we stayed here. Getting to the hotel means having to cross the busy road again on foot, with your luggage, from the car to the hotel. The main reception area was in the former Goldsmith’s building, and the entire front of the shop house is dedicated to the reception. To get in the front door, you will need your access card, or the staff inside will have to let you in, if you have yet to check in. The central part of shop house is a courtyard with a spiral staircase going upstairs to the 2nd floor, and in the back is a sort of pantry area with dining table. Staircase at the back also leads upwards. We had booked a room at the back of the shophouse on the 2nd floor, as we were aware of reviews that rooms in front may have some street noise. The rooms are all named after birds, in line with the hotel itself being a “nest”. Our room wa

Nice place and convince as the location is the heart of City.
JQ Ban Loong Boutique Hotel
3.9/54 Reviews
We stayed here for only one night after coming down from Penang. It’s a small boutique hotel with basic amenities but very close to all tourist attractions. We checked in quite late at about 7pm, so the road to Jalan Bandar Timah was quite empty. The next morning, we were surprised because the road leading to everywhere was so jammed and all shops (coffee shops & restaurants) were so packed with people, long queues everywhere! Even though this is a small hotel, but it is very clean. Remember to bring your own toiletries as only shampoo and shower gel were provided in the room. Other than that, everything was good. Highly recommended for those love to walk around and learn about history of Perak.
Abby Hotel by the River Town
3.7/516 Reviews
Reasonably clean. Reception is friendly. Free breakfast on the roof 8.30am-10.30am. Tea, coffee toast, butter, kaya (coconut spread) and scrambled eggs on request. Can chill out on roof in hammocks anytime. We stayed in family king room. 120 ringgit per night plus 10 ringgit per night foreigner tax. 50 ringgit deposit. 1 king bed and 1 single bed. Shower only, soap & toilet dispenser on wall. Hairdryer, fan and air conditioner. There’s a cover for the window which blocks out the light for sleeping. Hallway has water filter, kettle, ironing board and spare toilet. Some rooms here are dorm rooms. There’s a sign out front of hotel for walk ins, pay 3 nights and get 4th night free. Bicycles for hire and drinks sold in lobby. This hotel is in new town. There are some food options in old town in the streets surrounding concubine lane. If you are here on a Tuesday try the night market called pasar malam taman Ipoh timur - large night market. About 10 ringgit grab ride. There’s a Tesco next door with free wifi if you don’t have data, to order a grab back. Walked through gerbang malam approximately 7.15pm on Wednesday night, market stalls were only beginning to set up. Restaurants around there were full. Next night we walked through approximately 9.30pm, all stalls were up. Also try Tong Sui Kai for food. Usual local dishes and dessert. Remember you can only sit in front of the stalls that you will be ordering from. I have done a separate review about this place. There’s also a food court near there.
Beds in Garden Hostel Sdn Bhd
4/57 Reviews
Beds in Garden Hostel Absolutely the ideal backpacker hotel! When I entered the door, I thought it was just a small backpack inn. After I checked in, the counter sister took us into the bed. The hall was really beautiful, and the space was oversized. There were tables and chairs that could chat with others, and there was room to do things alone. There are also some table games on the table for everyone to play, I really like this atmosphere ~ After arriving at the room, I found that the ceiling version was high. The whole room looked very comfortable and large. There were cabinets under the bed to lock valuables. There were also lights in their own beds that could be turned on and would not affect others. The bathroom equipment is on the other side, far from the room, I like this plan, the bath or wash will not noisy others, the space is also designed very well, and there is shampoo and bath milk, awesome!
Bedrock Hotel Ipoh
4.6/568 Reviews
Firstly we came twice previously prior to pandemic and only returned after almost 4-5 years on. It is still the best hotel in Ipoh. Service from Debbie and crew is always excellent. The suite we stayed in ; is of course excellent still and well kept despite CoVID situation preventing us from visiting sooner. I am always amazed when I return. The normal rooms are good as well as we used to take two rooms. The location is also everything; near to beat bean curd dessert in Ipoh ; the Ipoh taugeh chicken stores ; famous biscuits stores in Ipoh and other great places to eat around Jalan Yang Kalsom and Jalan Hugh Low!
