Hotels near Sultan Abu Bakar Mosque, Johor Bahru

We had a nice stay at the St Giles Midvalley Southkey. The hotel is very popular, and you can see it in the rooms and staff especially when it's later in the day. The best part of the hotel is its proximity to Midvalley Southkey mall. The hotel rooms are a decent size, but the towels and fittings are not new anymore, the carpet is showing signs of wear, and the bathroom is a strange open shower/sink/toilet bowl design. Nice gym and view, together with the infinity swimming pool on the roodtop, but note that it is a very cold swim due to the windchill. Breakfast buffet is very good, plenty of choices, but very crowded after 7.30am. Would love to stay again when room rates are closer to my expectations.

Check in took abit long was troublesome to wait until 3pm with 4 tired senior citizens after a long jam at causeway. Otherwise the stay was great. My family enjoyed the stay. Bed was very comfortable for their tired bodies. They want to return again to stay soon.

If you like a quiet, cosy place that give you a resort feel, then this hotel will be a good choice. Initially booked this hotel is because wanting to try the Gem Spa, as previously I tried their other outlet which was very good. But sadly due to time constraints, we didn't manage to go the spa. What I like about this hotel is, there is a hard rock within the hotel. So if you do not want to travel 15mins out, then you can actually chill and eat there. The room is cosy but sadly that even I had booked the sea view, the view was not directly. I was allocated a room that faced the road and far right is the sea. But the plus point is I have a bathtub. Overall the service is good, breakfast is average and the occupancy of the hotel is high but you do not feel crowded.

Extended stay from 26/1 to 28/1.. very satisfied with their unit upkeeping and surrounding facilities. Good for family stay.

This cute comfy stay is reward for the kids. The kids love it so much. Very convenient, easy access to Legoland and there are nearby shops and restaurants. Thanks to the owner.

Stayed at the 2 Bedroom unit during their soft opening and honestly, this hotel has so much potential to become one of the top family staycation spots in Johor! We were the first guests there! Thank you to the entire team at Dao by Dorsett Puteri Cove for the warm hospitality and memorable experience. The 2 Bedroom unit was spacious, comfortable, and perfect for families or group stays. The layout felt very homely with a beautiful living area, dining space, kitchen, and balcony overlooking the stunning Puteri Harbour surroundings. The unit came with useful amenities such as: * Spacious living and dining area * Fully equipped kitchenette/kitchen * Refrigerator * Washer & dryer * Smart TV * Wi-Fi * Comfortable king and twin beds * Rain shower bathrooms * Balcony with beautiful views * Swimming pool access * Gym/fitness facilities * Family-friendly environment * Free parking The overall ambience of the hotel was modern, peaceful, and luxurious while still giving a cozy “home away from home” feeling. What truly made the stay special was the amazing service from the staff. Every single staff member was warm, friendly, and welcoming. Special compliments to: * Anis, for her generous smile, friendliness, and attentiveness. She constantly checked in on us and made us feel very valued throughout the stay. * Muhammad, for being professional and responsive for any queries. * The room service manager who came personally to ensure everything was settled smoothly. * Hajar, for making our second day easy and pleasant while listening carefully to our feedback. The team also went the extra mile with decorations and cake arrangements, which made our stay feel extra meaningful and personalised. Breakfast overall was enjoyable, especially on the first day where the hashbrown was perfectly crunchy and the spread was satisfying. The hotel’s dining area was comfortable and relaxing as well. The hotel itself is beautiful, family-friendly, and strategically located near Puteri Harbour and family attractions. Definitely looking forward to coming back again for the official opening. Wishing Dao by Dorsett Puteri Cove continued success ahead! Reviewers you can see my I.G @hazyvanderwoodsen for the full video 😊

The location was good, right above Paradigm Mall. Service provider was prompt in replying to messages and gave clear check-in, check out guide with videos. The place is just nice for a family of 6. Slightly down side is the water pressure in the bathroom could be abit stronger, but this is subjective to individuals.

it was a pleasant stay. lift was super fast. will book again. thanks host!

We had a great stay at Hotel Granada Bukit Indah! It’s super convenient—just a short walk to AEON Mall and close to plenty of cafes, shops, and even Sutera Mall is just a short drive away. We stayed in Room 918, which had a lovely view and was spacious and clean. We really appreciated that the room wasn’t carpeted—it feels fresher and is actually our preference too. Service was prompt and friendly; we requested an extra pair of slippers and they brought it up quickly without fuss. The buffet breakfast was decent, with a good enough variety to start the day. All in all, a solid stay for the price and location—would definitely return.

I recently stayed at Ramada by Wyndham Meridin Johor Bahru, and it was a fantastic experience from start to finish. The location is ideal—just minutes away from Legoland, Medini Mall, and other attractions, which made it perfect for both relaxation and sightseeing. The room was spacious, clean, and modern, with a very comfortable bed and all the amenities I needed. I especially appreciated the thoughtful touches like complimentary bottled water, good-quality toiletries, and a well-stocked minibar. The views from the higher floors are lovely, offering a peaceful cityscape or greenery, depending on your room. The service was top-notch—staff were polite, attentive, and always willing to help with any requests. Check-in and check-out were smooth and efficient. The hotel also has excellent facilities, including a nice outdoor pool, gym, and a great on-site restaurant with a wide variety of local and international dishes for breakfast. Everything was well-maintained and clean. If you're visiting Johor Bahru for leisure or business, Ramada Meridin is a solid choice. It offers great value for money, comfort, and hospitality. I’ll definitely be returning!
