Thistle Hotel Johor Bahru

#johorbahruhotels ✨ Thistle Johor Bahru is a popular pick for travelers who love spacious rooms 🏨 and scenic views 🌊. Located near the Causeway, it’s super convenient for exploring Johor Bahru or hopping over to Singapore 🇸🇬. Many rooms offer beautiful views of the Straits of Johor 🌅, making mornings extra special. Families especially appreciate the large, airy rooms 🛏️ and cozy vibe. The outdoor swimming pool 🏊♀️ and decent buffet breakfast 🍳 add to the comfort, and the staff is generally known for being friendly and helpful 😊. Guests often highlight the value for money 💰, with free parking 🚗 and a good location near malls 🛍️, cafes ☕, and hawker food 🥢. If you’re lucky, you’ll get one of the refurbished rooms with upgraded amenities. However, not everything is perfect here. Some visitors mentioned the hotel looks a bit old 🏚️ in certain parts, with tired furnishings and maintenance issues like leaky toilets 🚽 or faulty air conditioning ❄️. A few also noted that carpets could be cleaner and even reported pests 🪳 in rare cases. Breakfast can get crowded during peak times 🕗, and quality is sometimes hit or miss. Overall, Thistle Johor Bahru 🏝️ is a great choice for families 👨👩👧👦 and those who want space and sea views 🌊 without paying luxury prices 💵. If you don’t mind a hotel that’s a little past its prime but still delivers on comfort and convenience, this one’s worth a try. Just go with balanced expectations and enjoy the lovely views! #thistle #travel #couplestrip #beachlife #staycation #naturalwonders #thingstodo #seascapes #familytravel #poolhotel #resorts #museums #myitinerary #citydaytours #afternoonteatime #localfood
