Guest User: Excellent Strategic location, the staff is really friendly and helpful. Hotel is located behind a hill so it’s quiet and you can jog in the area adjacent to the hotel, bring your trainer! Parking is ample however when there is function at the hotel, guests who are staying have to fight for parking space. I recommend dedicated parking space for staying guest as there are still available parking behind and the side of the rooms!

Bayla Vered: The hotel is very comfortable, and it's about a 17-minute drive to the Kuala Perlis Jetty. The hotel is clean and provides easy access to various places. It can be used as a transit hotel for trips to Langkawi. The price is also very reasonable.
No.3&4, Jalan Taman Gembira, Jalan Arau
From £ 15
Guest User: It was an amazing experience to stay here for two nights during my business trip. The hotel is newly built, the room is huge for a queen bed, and it’s complete with all the facilities I need. Maybe for some improvement, certain staff should be friendlier. I felt a bit uneasy during my check-in as their expressions were tense and unfriendly. Other than that, I recommend this to everyone who travels to Perlis soon! Thank you for the great experience, All In Hotel!

🚆 Reviewing Train No. 45: HAT YAI → PADANG BESAR 🇹🇭🇲🇾 If you want to start your trip to Penang with an authentic train atmosphere, Train No. 45 is a fascinating route to consider. As a Special Express service by the State Railway of Thailand, it runs from Bangkok all the way to Padang Besar on the Thai-Malaysian border, meaning you don't even have to change trains at Hat Yai. 🚉 Crossing from Hat Yai to the Border The segment from Hat Yai Junction to Padang Besar takes about 45 minutes. Though the distance is short, the scenery gradually shifts as you leave Hat Yai and approach the border zone. The train cars on this route offer a truly classic experience, complete with vintage seating, louvered windows, and ceiling fans. It perfectly preserves the nostalgic aura of traditional Thai rail travel. 🪑 What I Loved About This Journey The draw here isn't luxury; it's the genuine vibe of a real train journey. Sitting by the louvered windows, watching the sunlight stream into the cabin, and noticing small details like the old-fashioned seat numbers, fans, and luggage racks makes you feel like you’ve stepped back in time. For photography lovers, this train is full of great shots—from the exterior of the cars and the platforms to the vintage details inside the cabins. 🇲🇾 Arriving at Padang Besar: What’s Next? Upon reaching Padang Besar, you'll need to go through both Thai and Malaysian immigration. After that, you can catch the Malaysian KTM Komuter train to Butterworth to continue your journey into Penang. Train No. 45’s schedule is ideal because it’s a morning service, allowing you to complete your journey into Malaysia on the same day. However, be sure to budget enough time for border procedures and check the latest KTM schedules before you depart. 📝 Final Thoughts Train No. 45 is perfect for travelers who aren't in a rush and want the journey itself to be a highlight of their trip. While it doesn't offer the modern comforts of newer or high-speed trains, its charm lies in the vintage atmosphere and the slow, rhythmic transition from the Thai railway system to the Malaysian border. HAT YAI → PADANG BESAR → BUTTERWORTH → PENANG From classic Thai trains to the KTM, ending in beautiful Penang 🇹🇭🚆🇲🇾 📸 All photos are original and taken by myself.
If you want to travel from Thailand to Malaysia without flying, this is the perfect route for you. 🚆🇹🇭🇲🇾 It’s a laid-back journey that turns the transit itself into a highlight of your trip. The main route follows Krung Thep Aphiwat → Hat Yai Junction → Padang Besar → Kuala Lumpur Sentral. While you'll be on the rails the whole way, please note that you must book your Thai and Malaysian train tickets separately. Start by booking your Thai train tickets through the D-Ticket website or app. Search for "Krung Thep Aphiwat" as your origin and "Padang Besar" as your destination. Since it's a long-distance overnight trip, I highly recommend booking an air-conditioned sleeper berth for a comfortable ride. Before completing your payment, double-check the passenger names, travel date, train number, and destination. Keep your e-ticket on your phone and always have your passport handy. The train will pass through Hat Yai Junction, a major hub in Southern Thailand. If your ticket is for Padang Besar, don't get off here. Stay alert for station announcements, check the signs, or ask the staff if you're unsure. At night, keep your passport, phone, cash, and cards in a small bag close to you rather than in your main luggage or at the foot of the bed. Upon reaching Padang Besar, disembark and follow the signs to immigration. Have your passport, KTM ETS ticket, and Malaysia Digital Arrival Card (MDAC) confirmation ready. You’ll clear Thai immigration first, then walk a short distance to the Malaysian checkpoint. I recommend allowing at least 2–3 hours for this process, as queues can be quite long during holidays or peak times. Definitely avoid booking your onward KTM ETS train too close to your arrival time. Once you've cleared Malaysian immigration, board the KTM ETS from Padang Besar to Kuala Lumpur Sentral. The journey takes about 4–5 hours depending on the train. KL Sentral is a major transportation hub with easy access to the MRT, LRT, Monorail, and Grab, making it simple to reach Bukit Bintang, Chinatown, KLCC, or the airport. The total journey takes around 20–24 hours, making it ideal for those who have the time and want an immersive cross-border train experience. 💙 Plan it yourself! ***Note: Train schedules, pricing, and border protocols are subject to change. Please re-verify both ticketing systems and MDAC requirements before booking.

The greatest surprises of a trip are never found in guidebooks. They are hidden in a steaming cup of soy milk handed to you by the B&B owner at dawn, warming your entire journey. They are found in the moment you push open the window after a bumpy three-hour bus ride, gazing at the snow-capped mountains and realizing every jolt was worth it. This is a profound awakening to life and the purest pursuit of freedom. With a path beneath our feet, light in our eyes, and passion in our hearts, we should brew fresh tea over a new fire and enjoy poetry and wine in our youth. We often believe a trip is only worthwhile once we reach our destination, unaware that the most beautiful scenery quietly unfolds the moment we slow down. Pacing the world with our steps and collecting heartfelt moments with our souls, we encounter countless strangers on this long journey. A simple smile or a gentle nod carries a comforting, warm power. Though lands differ, we share the same sky and moon. No matter where we come from, under this vast universe, we are all equal wanderers finding our way home. Once you've witnessed the immensity of the world, you no longer fuss over petty gains and losses. We learn to embrace our imperfections, much like accepting the rugged peaks of a mountain or the winding curves of a river. This endless journey teaches us to dance with solitude and converse with loneliness. Guided by the wind, we finally come to realize that the meaning of life isn't about how far you've traveled, but whether you have truly lived—whether you have wholeheartedly embraced the authenticity of every single moment.

teenymeenyTasik Melati is now one of the famous tourist destinations in the state of Perlis which is always the focus for family leisure and recreation activities. This lake is located on Jalan Santan, 10 KM from Bandar Kangar. Originally Tasik Melati was an abandoned lake or swamp filled with wild plants called kercit. This lake never dries up and is the main source of water for farmers for agricultural activities The Department of Irrigation and Drainage (JPS) began developing this swamp in 1977 by building a main dam to raise the water level to supply water to the 350-acre rice crop area
