I am back again at Doubletree by Hilton for the 2nd time this month already!
Hotels in Singapore are great for a quick getaway but they can be rather expensive if you do it often enough. Besides, many luxury chain properties in Singapore have been around for some time and are therefore showing signs of age.
One of the best things about being in Singapore is that you are always a short flight or drive away from another country. The rooms rates at the Doubletree by Hilton Hotel Johor Bahru is amazingly affordable if you compare it to a hotel of similar standards in Singapore. I would highly recommend you to plan the route you are going to take instead of aimlessly driving (especially if you are new to Johor Bahru) - click HERE for directions provided by the hotel staff.
The bedroom comes with a comfortable king-sized Sweet Dreams bed as well as an impressive view of the straits. There is a separate air-conditioning control for the room so you can be sure to keep the whole suite nice and cosy (or frosty if you will).
The beautifully designed bathroom consists of a standalone bathtub as well as a walk-in rain shower. I personally loved the design of the bathroom since it's easy to maintain and aesthetically pleasing with clean design lines.
Your bedroom will also come with a 40-inch LCD TV with a selection of international and local channels. During my stay at the Doubletree by Hilton Hotel Johor Bahru, I faced some issues receiving satellite channels due the heavy downpour outside. However, this was quickly rectified once I restarted the TV. In case this happens to you, try switching it off and back on to see if that resolves the problem. Otherwise, you may have to contact one of the friendly staff to help you out.
If you require more pillows, feel free to order some from the pillow menu and grab an extra one that is hiding in the wardrobe. Contrary to popular belief, ordering from the pillow menu is unlike the in-room dining menu. Everything from the pillow menu is complimentary although a little tip for the staff that brings it up wouldn't hurt. An ironing board and iron can also be found should you require all your clothing to be crease-free.
The Doubletree by Hilton Hotel Johor Bahru is the perfect place to go to if you are looking for an alternative staycation destination. The BAR for basic rooms start from MYR 340++ (approx. S$150 after taxes) and the One-Bedroom Suite that I stayed in goes for MYR 640++ (approx. S$280 after taxes) on BAR. Advance Purchase rates are generally 10% off BAR. At the time of writing, there is a Hilton Premium Club rate which offers an impressive 30% off BAR. Basic Guest Room is only MYR 238++ (approx. S$105 after taxes) a night under the Hilton Premium Club rate. If you have some Hilton Honors points, a night in this beautiful property is only 5,000 Points.
