French Hotel

Great location, just adjacent to memory lane where the Sunday flea market happens. Lots of eateries (KFC, pizza hut, cafes, restaurants), within walking distance. The hotel cafe serves breakfast at 10RM, the quantity is a bit less though. Cafe is beautifully designed though. King size beds are huge and super comfortable. The staff is super helpful. Very central location and walking distance to Mural Lane and concubine lane. Grab taxi is immediately available and normal taxis are always stationed in front of the hotel. 7/11 is just besides the hotel as well. The Perak cave and the Sam Poh Tong cave complex/Mirror lake are sort of equidistant from this location. Wifi was quite good too.

French Hotel Ipoh offers a budget-friendly stay with a prime location in downtown Ipoh. Rooms are clean, compact, and comfortable, featuring strong A/C, good storage, fast Wi-Fi, and basic amenities. The bathroom is well-maintained with excellent water pressure. Staff are attentive, especially during a corridor flood incident. While some furnishings and the TV need updates, the hotel’s value and convenience make it ideal for short stays.

I personally think French Hotel is way better than some of the 3-star town / city hotel that I've stayed before. Location wise is good, it's nearby the Ipoh Parade, about 4-5mins driving distance from the happening area at night. Hotel staffs are friendly and attentive. I like the security of the hotel, anyone who would like to enter the lobby, will need to ring the bell, hotel guest can enter with the room key card. I love the handmade map at the main lobby, it definitely help the guests to explore around easily, especially those who would love to walk and explore. We stayed in room 310, the room is spacious, the bed is Super King, bathroom is clean, just that the lighting is not bright enough to my personal preference, but overall is ok. Aircond is LOVE, as we both likes cooling ambience. I read some of the reviews mentioned can't adjust the air-cond temperature, which is incorrect info. In fact we can adjust the temperature and fan speed of the aircond. Oh! There's a mini fridge in the room! Plus point for a 2-star hotel.

The hotel is by a busy road, but I didn’t hear much traffic noise in my room and was able to sleep well. Good location, you can walk around the city from the hotel. The train station is within walking distance too, but with luggage it may be better to take a grab (it was very cheap). Mini fridge in the room. I arrived around 12 pm and staff let me check in as my room was ready. I was able to store luggage after checking out, until evening.

Excellent location. Walking distance to the old town, night market and good eateries. 711 just next door. About 20 mins walk to/from the railway station. Good decent size clean room with comfortable bed and pillows. Bathroom is clean and a little compact. Aircon works great and shower is hot. Cable TV channels is good and would be great if there is news channel. Staff very friendly and efficient.
