“genting view resort.”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 4 January 2012
5
people found this review helpful

checked into kl airport and went straight to this hotel in genting as i didnt get any bookings for a hotel right inside the theme park. the hotel is good if you are a regular visitor to genting and want to get away from the theme park crowd. its right in the forest and has an amazing view. i got a river side apartment and something i had not bargained for as it turned out to be a mini bunglow with 4 bedrooms and for my family of my wife and two kids it was quite large. the outside look was shabby and the rooms were not too great either. the walls were damp and paint had pelled off. it has not emenities at all inside and one can get stranded here if he isnt carrying adequate things to eat and survive. the view from the room was amazing thou. we learnt the hard way that if you main reason to visit genting is the theme park then please dont stay anywhere else but in the hotels which house the theme park. it took us 2 hours every day one way during peak season time in december to get to the theme park which also includes a sky cable for 25 mins and a 15 min drive from the hotel to reach the cable car station. extremely painful to do this morning and evening. over all didnt like the hotel at all and the toilets and rooms were smelly and just didnt seem right., over all didnt try any of the facilities as i didnt see any. if u are a single family totally avoid this place. if you are quite a few families willing to cook then take one of the villas it would work out cheaper. and if you arnt getting any bookings in genting and are forced to stay here then take a room and dont try any of the villa apartments. not worth it for sure. only reason to go there is peace and its nice and quite.

Room Tip: if you are going to genting please please stay only in the hotel on top where the theme parks are.

“Horrible.. Simply Horrible!”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 18 December 2011

people found this review helpful

This hotel is far from the theme park. This is fine with me as I was there for a workshop. The price that they charged did not reflect the service provided. The room was smelly and stuffy! The guest house where we held the workshop was poorly maintained. Toilets were very dirty and smelly, and some were not working.. urgghhh... Food prepared for us was also tasteless. They do not even know how to make a decent coffee in the morning! It seemed that they're short of workers, but hey, you're running a resort here (even under Sime Darby name some more!). A reminder to Sime Darby - if you takeover any resort and put it under your name, please refurbish it first before opening to the public! It tarnishes your good name!!

Room Tip: Don't choose the rooms near the reception area. Maybe the apartments are better.. Maybe...

“Heaven on Earth”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 14 September 2011

person found this review helpful

Like Heaven, so cool that its really difficult to express in words, best is to visit and experience it yourself. Actually the weather in Genting has lot of amusement games which is on till late night and its too cold. The food is also good and i would advise you visit this place with a big group.

Room Tip: Facing the valley/ mountains

“Eeeeeriieeeee”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 July 2011

person found this review helpful

What my friend said when we first arrived there was
"Don't you think that we are the casts of some horror / thriller movie?"

The rooms and buildings are old. the corridors are not maintained as they are filthy with bird droppings. Bathroom is very mouldy and the building itself looks eerie. The compound is not maintained properly.

Avoid this hotel if you can... opt for other hotels in Genting
