A business/stopover hotel, not a leisure resort

3.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 26 Oct 2022via mobile
First the ratings, we had a deluxe water bungalow. The room is large enough, with a mini fridge, safe, separate shower, large bath and loo. The bed is a super king with a firm mattress and firmer (rock like)pillows. A weird glass panel in the middle of the bathroom floor looks down on murky brown sea water. The sheets are good and clean. Plenty of storage and they offer room service. Service by the staff varied from excellent to dreadful. Most staff are great however. Location - well that's subjective. We wanted a nice resort hotel near the beach. Essentially this seems to be a business hotel and a stopover hotel. The location for a holiday visit is not great. To get to the actual resort of Port Dickson requires the hotel limo (66MYR roughly £15.00 each way) or a taxi, but reception couldn't advise a price for that). There are some wonderful staff, some not so great. The food in the sister hotel (Grand Lexis) right next door is spectacular, fresh, delicious and presented beautifully, ice or warm water is free of charge and free flowing with meals. The views out to sea from our water bungalow are of a power station, the sea is murky brown and unappealing - although that could be due to the time of year? The breakfast buffet has something for almost every palate, lots of choice. The small pool is open 0800 to 1200 and again from 2pm, this might be seasonal? There are a few sun loungers and some seats with tables. Pool towels are provided. The gym is sad, with a treadmill, bike and cross trainer, but only the treadmill is connected to power. There are a few free weights, three benches, a leg machine and a combination lat pull down/seated rower. All have seen better days, but do work. There are no wipes or towels provided in or for the gym. There is a couple of small bottles of water provided and replenished. But staff are happy to refill bottles in the buffet restaurant area. Loo roll seems to be limited, but extra was provided when I asked for some. Small bottles of shower gel and shampoo is also provided. There is a hairdryer. The Grand Lexis next door has a bar which opens at 5pm and does serve alcohol. It is also a karaoke bar with powerful air con and powerful speakers! WiFi is provided with separate passwords for the room and the lobby. It isn't super fast, but gave us what we needed. It doesn't work by the pool, but hey, take a book! Would I stay again? No. Would I recommend it? If you're travelling through and just need a stopover on the way, or you've got transport, it's fine.

Literally one of the worst, if not THE WORST hotel I have ever stayed in. The hotel is old and worn out. And it is dirty. Look at the photos to judge it for yourself. Theres dust everywhere, the sheets and duvet feel damp and humid. The floors are so dirty as well. I can still feel it in my skin. I had the most uncomfortable stay and couldn't sleep a wink because I felt so sticky under the sheets.

The staff are unfriendly and unprofessional. On the day I checked out, the elevator malfunctioned. When I asked the staff how do I go up to my room then? What's the solution? No answer. Tried to use the emergency exit (which should be open at all times, if closed, it is a fire hazard) and it was locked. Literally the visitors were stranded downstairs waiting for the lifts, as no solution was provided.

Room tip: Stay somewhere else. Somewhere cheaper and more worth it.

The hotel has a great view and surroundings.

But their rooms were very disappointed.

The room I was had so many defects and at night the light in the toilet just dropped and thank god it did not break. Else that would have glass on the floor and hurt my mum’s feet.

Wanted to celebrate my friend’s mum birthday. Their room was ok but decoration was so minimum. The picture they give us to choose the decoration is not similar to the picture.

Unfortunately I would not go back.

Room tip: Ask for sea view.

Stayed at the premium tower room which has 1 King bed & 1 Queen bed. Easily accommodate 3 adults. The room condition is old which is expected but its clean. Loved the view of the chalets from the hotel. Many food choices outside the hotel, just within 10 mins drive. There is also a public beach called Glory beach, just 2 minutes walk from the hotel which is quite clean & relaxing as its not crowded, unlike other PD beaches, though you can't see the sunset from here.
Cons : Provided only 2 amenities despite in my booking stated for 3 adults. Water pressure at the basin is quite low.

Other than that, I would definitely come back here again in the future.

The water chalet were dated. Wifi didn’t work and had to request for technician to fix it, other issues including broken kettle, this whole chalet needs refurbishment. We came to visit as 2 families but one of the bedrooms were infested with bed bugs. Made a complaint to the management and was told they couldn’t find any bugs. It was our second night at the resort when this happened, and it was during the night when it got bitten all over. I would discourage anyone going to this resort.

Stayed Premium Water Chalet. The room condition is bit old and outdated. With big bathtub. The water pressure during shower and bathtub is low and taking long time to fill it. The air cond is cold. Breakfast is a bit below average with lack of choices. Gym is closed. Pool open for 45 mins each person. Buggy service is bit poor although pre order 30mins ago but not reachable to us. Rate 5/10.
