Phenomenal quality for the price. By far the best hotel in Ipoh. In fact, it's much better than many 5-star hotels, including the top hotels in the capital KL. - Great location. Easy access by car or taxi. Directly inside a lounge/bar area with live music at night, 2-minute walk to Aeon Kinta Mall, and a 5-minute walk to the huge Uptown Night Market. - All the facilities in the hotel are even nicer than in the online pics: the room, the reception, the gym, the indoor lounge area, the outdoor lounge area... all are lovely. - Fast and easy check-in. - Very comfortable room. Great mattress, pillows, sheets/blankets. - So many little details in the room which are amazing touches: iron and ironing board, hair drier, room safe, jewelry box, storage area, writing supplies, desk with writing lamp, a body-weight scale, and a lot more. - A lovely indoor lounge area for hotel guests with 24-hour tea/coffee, little treats, comfortable chairs, sofas. - An outdoor lounge area for hotel guests with lovely wooden tables. - Private balcony with table and chairs. - High quality a/c and ceiling fan. - Good quality breakfast in an adjacent restaurant. Eggs, fruits, Malay nasi lemak, soups, meats, breads, salads, vegetables. - Complementary high-tea upon arrival (if you arrive between 2pm-6pm). Shockingly lovely and fancy. - Complementary transportation in stylish SUV to and from airport, or train station, or bus station. - A cute stuffed dragon as a welcome gift! - Great gym in a stylish high-ceiling area. Free weights, barbells, squat rack, useful weight machines, cardio equipment. - Amazing, personal service from the staff. Huge thank you especially to Sir Melvin, who helped us in so many different ways. His service was professional and at the same time, personal and friendly. An amazing hotelier and an incredible asset to the hotel!

We loved everything so much at the 1969 Hotel that we have no complaints at all :-).

I expected a wider breakfast selection, as the choices were quite limited. Despite this, my sisters and I left the breakfast satisfied and full. While it was okay, I believe there is room for improvement, not that I disliked it, but I think it can be enhanced.

I have no complaints, but I'd like to suggest an idea for consideration. Adding a mirror in the main room, not just in the bathroom, would be convenient for tasks like makeup or getting ready. It's a small suggestion that might enhance the overall experience for guests during their stay.

The staffs are extremely helpful and friendly and there were interesting offers/complementary gifts as my stay was closed to the upcoming CNY. The room aisle is only accessible by using room card which is good for safety of customers. There are also ample parking lot in the multi level building next to it.

The noise isolation is pretty bad for the room as I can clearly listen to content of conversation between customer passing by my room and there were staircases in front of the room (may be challenging for elderly customers with bad knee). Also the building layout is quite confusing to look for walkway to CawanMu or multi-level parking building.

It was beyond our expectation, as we were informed during check-in that the stay comes with a complimentary high-tea for 3 of us! It is not very common that small hotels provide such a service. It was decent & delightful high tea set n breakfast spreads the next morning as well. Overall we're happy with the stay. We would definitely consider coming back to this hotel for sure!

Just something minor, the room feels a bit cramped n stuffy. There are even rooms without windows, so we requested to change to another unit which has window, so that 1 was better.

Ambience is good, room is spacious and enough amenities. There's ironing board and iron in the room also, with mini fridge and a safe is provided additional to the standard things in a hotel room. May be a bit confusing going around but once you get familiar to the setting it is alright. There's parking space which is quite tight for other than sedans. You may hear the live band below from the room till about midnight. Nice restaurants linking with the hotel, reasonably good buffet for a place like this, the hi tea area and their Japanese cuisines. There's the bar for those who are into it.

Stayed for 3 days 2 nights with breakfast included. The property is clean and nice . I was welcomed by Roy , the front desk staff who helped me in check in process and assisted me to carry my stuffs to the room . Every staff member I encountered, from the valet to the check- in to the cleaning staff were delightful and eager to help . They all go above and beyond to make your stay comfortable. Alison and Aiman from Cawanmu Cafe service is top notch . Please give your staff awards !

Nothing

Everything was so good! We were given welcoming drink upon early check-in, they provide us with complimentary hi tea which was delicious. Room is spacious, also located nearby to many local eateries, breakfast buffet not so much but wasn’t that bad either, probably just lack of choice but they serve everything right. staffs were also super friendly and nice, parking was easy probably bcs its weekdays, but they do have parking for guests. I need to know what kind of hotel pillow they used it was super comfortable

water pressure kinda slow

Very friendly and helpful staff. Breakfast was simple but adequate. The hotel is conveniently located with a number of good eating places around and close proximity to a shopping center, and of course, ideal when friends live in Ipoh and Canning Gardens. The bar on the ground floor is great for a beer or a gin and tonic, especially in the evening when a pianist and singer(s) are on.

The room I was in seemed to have mechanical plants on both sides, and the noise was quite audible

Very beautiful place...peaceful...staffs are friendly

The breakfast spread can be improved The room need more mirrors as it only have one in toilet...difficutl to do make up .should proveide lengthy mirror also

Wonderful service by all the staff, especially .. FO - Simran (respectful and friendly) Hi-Tea - Crystal (polite and helpful) Also, to add on the cocktails served by one indian gentleman (Shivam if not mistaken,very professional in handling guests and a good team player). They made our trip really great..Thanks to the whole team.

I'm just a little disappointed with the buffet since the items weren't topped up but understandable since running with minimal manpower during peak hour, and the raya buffet felt not worth it.
