Staying for three days, spacious and clean room. Breakfast delivered to your room every morning myb due to mco. Got malaysian and western breakfast. The only downside is the provided towels makes me sneezes. All the staff is really helpful and friendly. Will definitely come again in the future. Myb next week! Got a bargain right now

This is a nice hotel resort concept. Upon check out I requested the reception make a room booking for me for the 15th October 2021 but was told by the reception the hotel is ceasing operation. Their last day of operation is 30th September 2021. This is very sad. A nice hotel is closing due to no proper plan of the property by the management and owners. I even enquired the staff of their status and was told they are still not sure as nothing was told to them yet. Being a regular top this hotel i feel very pity for the staff. Hope all gets well with them. May Allah bless the staff.

The hotel is very run down. Which is a shame considering the strategic location in Subang and very nice amenities. The swimming pool is still the best feature. The hotel rooms badly need refurbishment. The meeting rooms are not the best equipped. I had a meeting for 60 pax here. The projector was not bright enough but the sound system was good in the Victoria Ballroom.

Located in a strategic place near Subang Jaya Medical Centre (SJMC). Kind of old-fashioned hotel with huge rooms and buildings. Understandable since this whole year they must be lost guests. Room was in good condition. I had a room with connecting door, unfortunately I can hear the guests next room which mean, they could hear as well Swimming pool was big n in clean condition.
