I've stayed at a few hotels in JB and this one has friendly staff and good restaurant plus plenty of parking space. Also the rooms are much much bigger than I expected. Prices are low and I'm glad its not a hotel where tour buses stay at. Obviously you have to go in with the right expectations, so there was... More

We stayed here for 2 nights. For its price, the hotel offers good value. But rooms cleanliness should be improved and breakfast selection needs to be added too. Location is okay at the danga bay but quite a distance to the town center. A cab will cost around 10RM each way. Overall, an okay stay, nothing special.

Stayed here for 1 night with my wife. The road to this hotel is quite tricky; usually will miss the junction for first timer. Hotel are not crowded and got many parking space. What surprise me is the room is quite big with nice view of the hotel's garden & straits to singapore. It situated near to center of JB,... More

Air conditioner took a long time to start up. Location was inconvenient. No pool so brought my children to see the fish at the pond. Even that was a disappointment, water... More

I had to spend a night in JB, and looked up tripadvisor for hotel recommendation. Lo and behold, I came across the Straits View Hotel. Rated No 1, I decided to give it a shot. It was a major disappointment. A spider on the bed, leftover hair in the bathroom kind of sum up the experience. The friendly reception is... More

Very nice hotel. The king size bed it's really comfortable and the room is very spacious and really clean. Plus the rate is also reasonable. The lobby design is great with lots of beautiful painting all over. Not only that the staff is really friendly and helpful. It's also quite close to Singapore border, will take about 10 minutes driving.

Clean, spacious, comfortable! This has rooms like a five star hotel, and cheap as chips!

The hotel has been renovated in the last 4 years. The rooms and service has remained excellant. The staff are caring and polite. The best value in Malaysia.
