Grand Paragon Hotel Johor Bahru

The hotel service is excellent! They did their best to give us what we have requested.

Checked in during ramadan period and there were tables placed all the way to the reception area to accommodate the restaurant crowd for buffet dinner in the evening. Hotel is old but room is ok. Parking is free and they will ask for RM100 deposit at check-in. Room is very very spacious with living room area, 2 bedrooms and 3 toilets (2 of them with bathtub and separate shower facilities), and 3 TVs. The bathtub in the master bedroom does not work and I don't really like the fixed shower head in the shower room. Breakfast spread is ok with the usual western + malaysian selection. Will return again for the spacious room.

Room is nice and comfy quite big. The bed is big and breakfast spead is okay.

Grand Paragon is situated very near KSL (about a 5-minute walk away). It's quieter than staying at KSL but still safe to walk to the hotel at night. The breakfast spread was decent. Many things are automated, e.g. we asked AI bot about a few things and we don't have to wait to speak to the reception (great for introverts). There's also the option to check in and out at a kiosk. The valet was attentive and friendly. It was overall a comfortable stay. 

the bath tub and sink are quite old and got stain, pillows are very big and high, not comfortable for small kids, the corridor after the lift got slight smoke smell, no nice scent, staff are polite and good, breakfast overall okay.

I recently had the pleasure of staying at the Grand Paragon Hotel, and overall, I had a great experience! The hotel's location is undoubtedly one of its strongest selling points. Its proximity to the checkpoint made traveling a breeze, and I appreciated the convenience. While the hotel's location is top-notch, there's room for improvement in terms of the amenities provided. Specifically, I found the towels to be somewhat worn and well-used. Replacing them with fresh, plush towels would elevate the overall comfort and luxury of the stay. On a more positive note, the breakfast spread was delightful! The variety and quality of the dishes were impressive, and I enjoyed starting my day with a satisfying meal. In conclusion, my stay at the Grand Paragon Hotel was enjoyable, thanks to its fantastic location and pleasant breakfast. With a bit of attention to detail regarding the amenities, I have no doubt that this hotel could truly shine. I would recommend it to fellow travelers and look forward to returning in the future.
