A very comfortable bed in an otherwise slightly dated decor in the rooms. Breakfast buffet whilst a wide variety was offered, was lacking in quality and taste. For a supposedly 4-5 star hotel, it couldn't offer better quality of tea bags? Don't get me started on those rickety dining chairs and tables on both mornings at breakfast........

Further charged after checkout

Dear Gurney Bay Hotel Had a great checkin but was not impressed with my checkout. Paid my bill on checkin. On checkout, was told bill was fully settled. Then later I get a notification from my bank that you have deducted a further RM 225.44 from my credit card. You did not have the courtesy to explain this or to apologise for any error you have made. Unlikely to stay with you again if this is how you treat customers.

Located in a prime location of Gurney Drive area. About 20-minute walk to Gurney Paragon and Gurney Plaza shopping malls. Also many restaurants around the hotel. The room is clean but look a bit old which the major renovation of this hotel is scheduled in 2025. In the meantime, already the best value if you are looking for a place to stay in Gurney drive area at a very reasonable price. Moreover, their buffet is amazing with a truly international line of food; western, chinese, indian,and halal, and also at an unbelieveable price (we added a buffet to our room for RM30/person). The only problem is the wifi is so slow and unstable. Forget about the tv in your room. LOL
