Jawi Peranakan Mansion

Everything else.

The location was not the best.

The location is good. Many eateries around it.

There are mosquitoes probably due to the surrounding drains.

I love the little details that were put in making our stay memorable. To begin, the staff members were hospitable. Pradeep, knows the history about the house, able to recommend places to eat nearby and also available to assist - even with online checkin. After a swim, a lemon infused water will be provided by the staff member. Secondly, the cutleries are classic and gave me that homely feeling. It took me back to the days when I was small. Last but not least, I enjoyed the 'ice cream potong' i.e. Malaysian fruit flavoured ice cream. You can have it anytime - even late at night. I wish they provide more flavour but I can understand why they limit to 3 to cater to foreigners' tastes bud.

The smell in the room. Could use some room refreshner.

This hotel is beautiful and tranquil and it's been restored with real attention to detail. The staff were extremely friendly and made it feel like a home away from home. The area is perfect - away from the main hustle and bustle of downtown but close enough to walk. Breakfast was simple but good quality and we loved the roti canai.

Nothing at all to do with the hotel itself but I feel obliged to give other travelers the heads up that there is a call to prayer which can be heard early each morning. We got used to it though!
