Thistle was perceived as a great hotel from the name itself. Got a good deal online. I was there for 3 days 2 nights on a business trip. I got in early and wanted to checked in but the front desk staff told me the room is not ready and they will be ready by 2pm. Since i had a... More

They had a good gym on the premises and a very nice pool. A nice way to unwind after a hard day's work. Very nice lobby bar, with a filipino band entertaining. Very classy band. The hotel rooms are very big but is in need of being updated - design and color scheme is horrible.. The bed was kind of... More

First of all let me say that I totally disappointed with the sales team at Thistle hotel which I think is the most idiot people I ever met in my life. The story began like this. I am planning to get married last year somewhere around December at Thistle which the real plan is to do the 'Akad Nikah' near... More

I hosted my wedding at Thistle Johor Bahru and in addition, booked 16 hotel rooms for my relatives and friends. My experience with Thistle was a mixed bag of immaculate service from some staff but atrocious attitudes from some others. Let me first start with all that is good with Thistle. The Operations team, in particular Adzura Norzam was exceptional.... More

I was in this hotel years ago (it was under another name) and it was excellent in every way, but this visit was very disappointing. The carpet outside my room was water damaged and smelt bad and the carpet inside was filthy. The glass partition at the bathroom was full of fingerprints and the hotel looked as if maintenance was...

As compared to other hotels my partner and I have stayed in JB for short trips, this will definitely be the hotel of our choice. From location, to cleanliness to service, we love our one night stay. The club room comes with the club lounge access, and... More

My recent visit shown Thistle is trying very hard to improve by putting several bottles of mineral water, hand towels and simple welcome drinks (despite too sweet). However, the room condition is still not up to mark. There are stains on carpet. The room looks pretty aged. Wifi is a new feature in the hotel compared to my previous visit... More

This is the 2nd time I stayed in this hotel. But this time due to work arrangement. Was so disappointed. Have called the hotel earlier to confirm on Internet services as stated in their website. The frontline confirmed that the hotel is fully wifi accessible. When I check into my room, found that the signal is low and not stable.... More

Let me start by saying that Thistle JB is easily one of the better hotels in the area. That being said, if one has experienced Thistle Port Dickson, their JB hotel is a drastic drop in standards. Perhaps this is due to them buying over the hotel from Hyatt but nonetheless it pales in comparison in terms of upkeep and... More
