Guests repeatedly praise WEIL Hotel for clean, spacious, comfortable rooms, professional attentive service, strong value, and convenient direct access to Ipoh Parade near the old town. Rooftop pool/bar, unlimited water, complimentary supper, and thoughtful birthday setups stand out. Recurring reservations include an older feel, poor insulation, a non-working TV, and doubts about true five-star quality.

Lousy ironing board, banquet chair as working table chair, no sofa, no standing / floor lamp, cheap thin hotel slipper, dirty bedside lamp shade, small gym, serves margerin (buttercup is not a real butter) in breakfast buffet) 👎👎👎

★ 5.0Business Travellers

I really dont like your hotel only provide the local tv channel.. even not a smart tv.. as a 4star hotel, you should have international channel for customer..

★ 7.0Couple

They give us RM50 voucher daily, but this can only be used if we charge to the room, and it cannot be used for in-room dinning.

★ 6.0

It was a meaningful and satisfying stay for my family, creating wonderful memories we will always cherish and hope to experience again.

★ 10.0Family

Complimentery supper (simple but nice gesture). Have never been to another hotel that offers supper. Keep up the good work Weil!!

★ 9.0Family with Children

Just an older house, everything was fine so far, although partly with a bit more noticeable signs of wear

★ 7.0Couple

The "wet room" shower/tub combo area is simply dangerous and ensures that the room always smells musty.

★ 7.0Couple

Very nice hotel with good quality amenities in a great location connected to Ipoh Parade

★ 9.0Couple

For me price is not a problem as long as we receive the best experience.

Rooms were repeatedly described as spacious, clean, quiet, comfortable, and well equipped, with highly praised beds, bathrooms, bathtubs, air conditioning, filtered drinking-water taps, replenished refreshments, and quality toiletries. Recurring drawbacks included unpleasant, unclean hallway carpeting, occasional outdated design, limited storage, small windows, hard mattresses, bathtub slip risks, and isolated maintenance or noise issues.

It's nice to have extra bath towels and hand towel, the ginger smell hand soap is pleasant too, the three bottles of body wash, hair shampoo and conditioner smells nice too, not dry to the skin.

★ 10.0

I was given the farthest room and it is quite an inconvenience as I traveled with my elderly parent (75 yo father)- something I should consider requesting prior to my check in.

★ 8.0Family with Children

It's definitely superb for young couples or married couples kind of hotel, not for the singles that shares a room coz of the LARGE look through Glass Bath wall.

★ 10.0

Also I noticed the rim around the tub sink hole was quite dirty but housekeeping cleaned it immediately when I requested for that to be cleaned.

★ 8.0Extended Group

The very dark room (tiny window), yet reserved 6 months earlier specifying the wish for a room with a view on a high floor.

★ 5.0Couple

We requested for extra room pillows and was told it was RM5 per pillow to which we agreed but the pillows never arrived.

★ 5.0Family with Children

The room that was booked for me, good impression upon entering, walkway to the hotel level n to the level is clean.

★ 8.0Partner

The guest next door was quite noisy at night, which disturbed our sleep as my husband and I are light sleepers.

★ 8.0Couple

Even at the minimum, the aircon was not cooling down the room and it was rather hot in the room.

★ 8.0Family with Children

However it was a good stay and we will definitely choose Weil Hotel again when we visit Ipoh again.

★ 7.0Family with Children

My boys like the bathroom because the bathtub is very nice and l like the body wash and shampoo.

★ 9.0Family with Children

For a 5 star hotel, I’d expect more toiletries provided in the room instead of asking for it.

★ 7.0Couple

It is very comfortable, great bed linen and probably the best pillows we've experienced in many hotel stays.

★ 8.0

We were on the comfort floor so we had access to a lounge for drinks and snacks.

★ 9.0Couple

The toilet is clean and the bath tub is the main reason why i book the room.

★ 10.0Couple

Room itself was clean and well maintained, a good size and a nice view of the city.

★ 8.0Partner

Room was comfortable with good amenities- the filtered water source and effort for sustainability was appreciated.

★ 9.0Extended Group

Love the best is the nice fragrance in the room, cupboard and shower gel and shampoo.

★ 9.0Family with Children

Rooms are not well sound proofed and we were kept awake by the noisy neighbours.

★ 8.0Couples

It is the only thing that’s stopping me from coming back to this hotel again.

★ 7.0Solo Traveller

The room was quite okay but the furniture was a bit outdated and worn out,

★ 7.0Couple

Room furniture is old , room slipper so thin and cannot slip in it .

★ 5.0Family with Children

I have space to iron my dress and store my luggage at a corner.

★ 7.0Couple

The room was very clean, the bed was comfortable and the bathroom was well-maintained.

★ 8.0Couple

My room was at the corner and very noisy with the sound of Aircond.

★ 7.0Family with Young Children

I had to use the shower head to spray water to flush out remnant soap and hair from the corner and it’s not a good experience as the amount of remnant soap that was stuck at the corner washed out and coated the whole shower floor with sticky and oily slick.

★ 4.0Couple

The major big + is the Huge Glass window that have enough sunlight for the room and the night view, the downside is when outside is having thunderstorm and very Windy, the glass panels will have creaking sounds from time to time randomly.

★ 10.0

I don’t like that it is not soundproof as mentioned in the description and i had expected the room attendant to change my sheets because we ate cake and make a little bit of a mess on the sheets but they didn’t.

★ 8.0Couple

For the price I paid, also the fact that this is a 5 star hotel, I hardly slept at all cos the room we stayed in, had loud pipes banging sound just above the ceiling at the entrance of the room door.

★ 3.0Couple

Misses was our room's vertical blinds in the windows (that had come off-track so we could not enjoy the views), lack of wardrobe space and no small dining table for in-room meals, though the room definitely has space for it.

Location: What guests say

480 relevant reviews

Location is repeatedly praised for direct access to Ipoh Parade mall, with abundant shopping, dining, food-hall and services. The hotel is central and convenient for transport, old town, night markets, KTM and airport. However, some guests found the neighborhood unattractive or isolated, with damaged sidewalks, heavy traffic and limited walkability, making taxis useful.

Maybe we went to the wrong areas or were there on the wrong night but couldn't see that Ipoh had anything going for it other than a decent halfway point between KL and Langkawi

★ 8.0Couple

The hotel is well located and allows for easy movement, with the help of taxis or Grab, to the wonderful rock temples in the area.

★ 8.0Couple

We were happy that there is a convenient store therein like Watsons which we could purchase what is required for emergency needs.

★ 8.0Family with Children

Close enough to walk to the old town but due to the heat we got a taxi, only 5 ringgits.

★ 10.0Family with Children

There’s not much around the hotel and the walk into town is a bit dicey along a main road.

★ 8.0

Good location, near to the airport and there is a mall besides the hotel which is an advantage.

★ 8.0Couple

- We have been located at the concept floor, which has the chance to visit the concept lounge.

★ 9.0Family with Children

A little isolated from town it was a fair way to walk to reach the town/city centre.

★ 8.0Couple

It was very nice place, and connected to the mall makes it convenient to find food.

★ 8.0Family with Children

It is directly connected to a shopping mall and has a supermarket, which is convenient.

★ 9.0Couple

A very convenience to the shopping area by walking distance to the mall; Ipoh Parade

★ 9.0Couple

Being next to the mall also meant convenience in terms of food and groceries.

★ 9.0Family with Children

Getting to Weil was easy, as I have stayed at this hotel many times.

★ 8.0

We loved the location which is next to a mall which is handy.

★ 4.0Couple

It is located in the new town but very close by taxi.

★ 10.0Solo Travel

There is a direct access to the nearby shopping mall, Ipoh Parade.

★ 10.0Family with Children

The location is good as it is linked to the shopping mall

★ 1.0Solo Traveller

Restful stay with every convenience close to the heart of Ipoh.

Great location with the convenience with mall just attached to it

★ 8.0Family with Children

It is accessible to restaurants, eateries, historical places and shopping areas.

★ 9.0Couple

★ 5.0Couple

I enjoyed the stay n will return if visiting Ipoh

★ 9.0Extended Group

In the heart of city area, many local shopping nearby.

★ 7.0Family with Children

The interior design, cleanliness and comfort, location is very convenient.

★ 10.0Family with Children

Connected to the mall, which is open until 10pm.

★ 9.0Couple

The hotel is very conveniently located next to a mall (there is a corridor in the hotel that links directly to the mall without needing to head out the hotel - great when weather is poorly outdoors).

★ 7.0Family with Children

I was looking for a hotel near the old town, it was advertised as being 4 minutes from Concubine St, where as it is a not particularly pleasant 25 minute walk from there.

★ 8.0Partner

Unfortunately, the hotel is very remote; it is 2 km to the old town, but fortunately, we have the GRAB app and quickly reached the tourist information for the equivalent of two euros.

★ 5.0Couple

The property is right next to Ipoh Parade (very useful and convenient) and within easy walking distance to the “Dessert Street” where one can find dinner among the many stores there.

★ 10.0Friends Getaway

The hotel only standout feature is its strategic location, with direct access to Ipoh Parade and being centrally situated in the city, making it convenient for getting around.

Breakfast: What guests say

View WEIL Hotel Ipoh

370 relevant reviews

Breakfast is frequently praised for its extensive, tasty variety across Chinese, Malaysian, Japanese, Western, and local Ipoh dishes, with some calling it a highlight. However, the restaurant is often overcrowded, with long queues and insufficient seating. Recurring criticisms include repetitive menus, average or dry food, and limited Western, sweet, fruit, and cheese options.

My son was 5 year old and v had to pay rm28 for his buffet on the second day, he hardly ate anything...I think it's a waste, need to pay for very young children. Pls improve on this .tq

★ 6.0Family with Children

We had to get up early each morning to obtain all that we enjoyed as fruit, some hot food and other food items were in short supply later.

★ 4.0Couple

Queue for breakfast buffet access was so huge, I returned to my room and ordered room service which arrived quickly and was very good.

★ 6.0Solo Traveller

Of course the fact that Ipoh is a food haven and there is plenty of good food out there didn't help.

★ 6.0Family with Children

Having some of the hot food served openly outside was not a great idea with the heat and humidity.

★ 7.0Couple

Bf spread is v good but I did wish I could opt out to go for local bf.

★ 9.0Family with Children

The highlight was definitely the breakfast buffet with a great variety of local Malaysian and Western options.

★ 10.0Friends Getaway

2nd day ,another staff inform me children need to pay and charge me 2 children bill.

★ 7.0Family with Children

The breakfast was nice with a very good selection of European, Asian and healthy juices/fruits.

★ 9.0Couple

For the price of the room the breakfast choices were just normal nothing fancy.

★ 9.0Family with Children

The breakfast was the same for 3 days - good to have some variety.

★ 7.0Extended Group

One would have thought that the hotel would step up in this department.

★ 6.0Family with Children

No one told us until the last breakfast after we almost finished.

★ 10.0Couple

The breakfast buffet is outstanding with great western and traditional options available.

★ 9.0Family with Children

The queue for breakfast can get long because of the limited space.

★ 10.0Family with Children

Too busy, and sometimes a long wait to get a table.

★ 8.0Couple

Breakfast is ok but not much variation since few years ago.

★ 7.0Couple

Buffet breakfast had a good selection and variety of food.

★ 8.0Couple

Breakfast is OK, but good to have some changes daily.

★ 8.0Family with Children

Crowded breakfast area-go early to beat the queue for breakfast.

★ 9.0Family with Children

The stay includes buffet breakfast and even supper too

★ 10.0Family

But breakfast was poor - less than average taste.

★ 8.0Solo Traveller

During one breakfast the porridge wasn't warm enough.

★ 10.0Family

Having said that, it wasn't very exciting anyway.

★ 8.0

The breakfast buffet was amazing as well.

★ 10.0Family with Children

The staffs show us a place with only Bench Chair; and she said fit for 6 person; I insist on the 10 seats table with High back chair; the staff come; the supervisor come; and the manager come.....what is the problem....I just want a peaceful breakfast; it is really spoiled my mood.....

★ 6.0Family with Children

The morning breakfast of my 2 day stay the variety was the same, the staff did not have courtesy to informed us that they were about to clean up for breakfast and they should at least do the last call for breakfast.

★ 3.0Family with Children

The morning breakfast of my 2 day stay the variety was the same, the staff did not have courtesy to informed us that they were about to clean up for breakfast and they should at least do the last call for breakfast.

★ 3.0Family with Children

Hygiene/COVID prevention were apparently very low on the hotel's priority list: while guests were made to use plastic gloves at the buffet, mask wearing was not enforced, and we watched several people cough their way around (and over) the breakfast buffet.

★ 8.0Couple

We often book club rooms to have breakfast peacefully in the lounge without crowds, have tea and cookies in the afternoon, and enjoy small snacks and complimentary beer, wine, cocktails, and long drinks in the late afternoon/evening.

312 relevant reviews

Staff feedback is mostly positive: guests repeatedly describe teams across reception, housekeeping, security, breakfast, and concierge as friendly, helpful, warm, and efficient, with frequent praise for luggage assistance and personalized service. However, service is inconsistent: some report unwelcoming or unhelpful reception, slow issue resolution, a room-assignment error without apology, and housekeeping not completing tasks.

All staff from those who cleaned the rooms, to the reception, the doorman and staff at the restaurant went out of the way to assist (helping to resolve a parking problem, storing our luggage, finding a suitable table for our party of 5, delaying the cleaning of our rooms at our request).

★ 10.0

The attitude of the staff need to be improved or more training needed! no smile when dealing with customer and sometime it really spoil the guest mood. not really helpful as well.

★ 6.0Family with Children

Lucky the manager saw us and told us to get seat while my husband wait for her to void and print out receipt for him to sign.

★ 7.0Family with Children

Front office team was friendly and kind as they managed to keep everyone on the same floor even they are running full house

★ 10.0Family

The service level was also disappointing—staff were not as friendly or attentive as you would expect from a 5-star hotel establishment.

★ 6.0Couple

Even though there are several staff members, they don't take any action when they see customers lined up at check-in.

★ 8.0Extended Group

Surprised at the lack of proper filing system and digital data retention for a 5-star hotel like Weil.

★ 6.0Family with Children

Ashwin from the Roof Bar is a star - he was not only efficient but welcoming and attentive.

★ 6.0Extended Group

Kudos to the security for always opening the door and helping us out with the luggage.

★ 8.0Couple

Also the staff are not friendly… got different information between the receptionist and the banquet staff

★ 2.0Family with Children

Staff attitude.. i was requesting for sunny side up during breakfast at the egg station.

★ 6.0Family with Children

The hospitality of the staff did not match the high image of the hotel.

★ 8.0Family with Children

Manoah knows/recognises his hotel guests making it extremely easy to communicate with him.

★ 10.0Friends Getaway

The young female chinese chef asked me to take the fried eggs instead.

★ 6.0Family with Children

Staff at concierge desk n coffee house were very friendly and helpful.

★ 8.0Family with Children

Excellent staff especially front of house and doormen, also housekeeping were brilliant!

★ 10.0Partner

He explained everything in great details with warm smile and hospitality.

★ 8.0Business

Casper was very accommodating while Haresan was knowledgeable of the area.

★ 9.0Extended Group

After a series of arguments, i asked for a refund.

★ 4.0Family

★ 6.0Couple

★ 8.0Solo Travel

This is very unusual for this level of hotel.

★ 6.0Couple

Front desk staff never smiled and were unwelcoming

★ 7.0Extended Group

I did voice my displeasure at the situation.

★ 6.0Couple

Satis(check In counter) was very helpful, very efficient.

★ 9.0Family with Children

Had an interesting conversation with the housekeeping staff when I called to ask for some wine glasses - he told me they were very busy and would likely take a very long time to send them up .. I had to ask if it would be more than half hour and he said yes. However, the glasses came up shortly afterwards. Guess it was to manage our expectations.

★ 6.0Extended Group

In addition, I remember checking the box where I wanted to request for invoice upon check out during the booking process, but the staff mentioned, that I need to request from Booking.com, and the staff basically did not issue any invoice or receipt to me.

★ 7.0Business Travellers

The staffs show us a place with only Bench Chair; and she said fit for 6 person; I insist on the 10 seats table with High back chair; the staff come; the supervisor come; and the manager come.....what is the problem....

★ 6.0Family with Children

The hotel gave us a lot of trouble with getting a refund for the already paid days... it felt like they cheated us and forcing us to stay despite the price is significantly higher than other hotels in Ipoh.

★ 4.0Solo Traveller

Regrettably, the front desk manager, Satiskumar (whose name I specifically requested), displayed a poor attitude and arrogantly directed me to drive up the ramp despite the chaos, which could easily have led to an hour-long delay.

Strong facilities include direct access to a large shopping mall, restaurants, rooftop infinity pool, gym, breakfast, free parking, and late-night porridge and soy milk. Recurring drawbacks are slow lifts, crowds, inconsistent Wi-Fi, occasional housekeeping delays, aging or poorly maintained equipment, slippery bathrooms, and limited rooftop or gym availability.

I don’t understand why you all locked the ground floor toilet, i was travelled by driving and was urgently need to go toilet for pee and only found out it was locked and i have to ask the restaurant worker to open for me, worse case is, it was afternoon, and nobody there and i have to walk to ipoh parade to find a toilet.

★ 6.0Solo Traveller

Unfortunately, things got worse from then on because the following morning, the water was coming out brown with sediments which appear to be a whole hotel issue due to some pipework being done nearby by the water authorities.

★ 6.0Couple

It would be nice if the hotel will have a lounge or quiet area for reading or meetings at the lobby or 1st floor for guests to relax or enjoy a drink or cocktail.

★ 9.0Couple

The main lobby had seats, but it is on a platform which you need to take a couple of steps to get to, it’s not convenient if you have someone who has accessibility needs.

★ 9.0Family with Children

The hotel bar is closed on Sundays, but even when it is open, it is quite 'sad': I particularly advise against ordering alcoholic cocktails because they are not able to prepare them properly.

★ 6.0Couple

Things are getting old and probably some maintenance work is needed; safe does not seem to be working and I do not feel safe leaving my things in the safe.

★ 8.0Couple

The filtered water tap in the bathroom was a God send with the water issue (explained in the section below) I experienced for 50% of my stay.

★ 6.0Couple

Furniture arrangement at lobby waiting area next to restaurant needs to be improved, very narrow circular space and it is tough to get in & out.

★ 6.0Partner

The rooftop bar could be better as when we went up, we could not really explore due to staff setting up tables and chairs.

★ 8.0Couple

Ive requested a simple deco dor our anniversary and the provide it for free with a slice of cake balloons some swan towel.

★ 10.0Family with Children

The hotel rents out event rooms, and on our last day, there was a very loud party in one of those rooms.

★ 3.0Couple

U have to go through the shopping mall car park and continue till you see the designated hotel car park area.

★ 10.0Family

The hotel is large and gets very busy when waves of people check in/out or go down for breakfast.

★ 8.0Extended Group

I was impressed by the cleanliness of the hotel, which was maintained to a high standard throughout my stay.

★ 9.0Couple

The food had run out just before 6pm, no clean wine glasses and quality of wine was poor.

★ 4.0Extended Group

The building and the facilities always well-maintained would make the hotel's reputation keeping a high level.

★ 8.0Couple

Basin water tap - just a bit touch the water flow is large. Water wasting.

★ 8.0Couple

Upgraded to floor 12 with free buffet in the evening and drinks till 11pm

★ 8.0Couple

The air conditioning even when set at a low speed was quite loud.

★ 8.0Couple

The pool was of a good size but the cleanliness can be improved.

★ 10.0Family with Children

The hotel has access to the parking deck of the parking garage.

★ 9.0Family with Children

The bathroom door is very heavy and difficult to open and close.

★ 9.0Extended Group

Some of the facilities were closed, including the roof top garden.

★ 7.0Couple

The safety box or the shower facility must be well-maintained.

★ 8.0Couple

I also like that it has a coworking space.

★ 7.0Couple

Free parking, EV charging, friendly staff, good hygiene overall.

★ 9.0Couple

Doesn't feel luxurious for price paid, unlike hotel chains.

★ 7.0Couple

The bar was a bit dark and cold.

Pool: What guests say

View WEIL Hotel Ipoh

132 relevant reviews

The rooftop infinity pool is repeatedly praised for its city and sunset views, cleanliness, relaxing atmosphere, late hours, and adjacent bar. However, it is small, has limited or worn loungers, little shade, and occasional cleanliness concerns. Several guests were disappointed by unannounced renovation closures, while others reported cold water and delayed opening or towel service.

The ladders leading into the pool were wobbly and some stairs were missing the rubber gripping. This should be addressed to reduce the chance of slipping, especially since there are no other steps into the pool

★ 10.0Couple

The highlight was the rooftop restaurant by the pool - we didn't go swimming, but in the evening you could sit there beautifully, look over the city, and enjoy a cold beer or cocktails

★ 7.0Couple

The pool is associated with a bar on the terrace, and the music was far too loud, especially since the people who frequent it have their own music playing from their phones.

★ 7.0Couple

I arrived at the pool on two days of my stay at 7:15am and there is still no staff at the pool to provide towels.

★ 7.0Family with Children

When I requested for additional towels as I knew the pool will not open on time, the guest services wanted to charge me RM10.

★ 7.0Family with Children

I explained my situation and she still insisted on the charge so I did not get more towels which I needed for my swim.

★ 7.0Family with Children

During our stay we didn’t use the rooftop swimming pool as it seemd to be mainly occupied by youths playing ball games.

★ 9.0Couple

Not enough space for us to go swim and didn't feel comfortable getting into the pool with so many people during evening.

★ 10.0Couple

...and this is also thanks to an infinity pool with a very well-equipped lounge area overlooking a quality rooftop bar service.

★ 10.0Family with Children

The roof top pool has amazing views, pool is a nice temperature perfect for cooling off after a days touring.

★ 9.0Family with Children

Rooftop pool was great, would be even better if the bar opened for snacks and drinks at lunch time.

★ 8.0Couples

That nobody felt an obligation to inform me and two associates that they had no pool due to renovation.

★ 4.0Solo Traveller

No pool available and I booked this hotel specifically for it as it’s on the roof with a view.

Check-in / Check-out: What guests say

View WEIL Hotel Ipoh

112 relevant reviews

Check-in and checkout are often described as fast and smooth, with helpful staff, early check-in, upgrades, luggage storage, and flexible extensions. However, recurring complaints include long queues, 40-minute or later check-ins because rooms were unavailable, lengthy checkout, unclear or duplicated deposits, room-type mismatches, key-card problems, and late notice of power maintenance.

The check in receptionist or the check in counter; they are so slow.....I booked 3 rooms; there was no other customer at the counter; He passed to her; the she passed to another him.....the process took 15 min.....either the check in system is not up to date; or the staffs are slow.....just imagine; if a bus arrive for check in; I bet 1 hour more for check in.....

★ 6.0Family with Children

The room for me was supposed to be ready earlier, but your staff kept insisting not ready, customer late check out, room service not done, and intended to “upgrade” my stay to a better and more expensive room than mine, the brewster room which is the summer bliss which actually priced the same and nothing much difference.

★ 6.0Extended Group

On 2nd day, she ignored one of our guest request to replace key card as it was not working, she just continued to look at her computer and did not even look up to acknowledge the person in front of her.

★ 8.0Couple

The check in is at 15, no matter if the room is already prepared, so be ready to wait in line for some time, or do the formalities as soon as arrive and later just collect the key at concierge.

★ 7.0Couple

Upon check in, your staff has shown lack of competency, unable to provide excellent service, slow in response and need me, as the customer to teach back your own staff on how to speed up my check in.

On my first time, I had to get off again with my luggage when I discovered my card key could not give me access to my room floor despite a fellow guest trying to help me out.

★ 9.0Solo Traveller

When asked to print out a tax invoice receipt, staff said not able to because I paid online, so the receipt I need to ask the booking.com to issue me the receipt what on earth is that?

★ 6.0Extended Group

When we asked if there was anywhere else in the hotel where we could get a drink and a beer we were then directed to the restaurant, where we were informed they don’t sell alcohol.

★ 7.0Couple

I dont expect super sympathy from anyone but at least ask the bellboy to help with my 6 pieces of luggage while i rush to the pharmacy before i faint from an emergency reaction geeze.

★ 5.0Family with Children

- After checked out & validated the carpark, cannot stay any longer even if I want to take a quick lunch at the hotel or the mall, because the parking ticket will be in 15-min.

★ 9.0Family with Children

They need to do something about how They Handle guest upon check in And check out, coz its seem likes they dont hv enough staff to Handle it even this not weekend but on weekdays

★ 7.0Family with Children

Next morning, when I was checking out, I told the Indian girl reception ..... you all have to close this room and get maintainance to check the pipe banging sound.

★ 3.0Couple

On top of that, upon check out, wanted to hand me back one key card that belongs to your hotel, saying that the card doesn’t belong to the hotel.

★ 6.0Extended Group

I don't believe reception desk staff requested that I place a MYR 250 as deposit even though I wanted to make full payment upon check-in.

★ 9.0Family with Children

We were advised by the concierge to go to the roof top bar where we could get a cool drink in comfortable surroundings.

★ 7.0Couple

The reception was also very accommodating to allow us extra time for check out in relation to our 3 rooms.

★ 8.0Family with Children

We dragged our luggage back to reception, who merely gave us another room without any apology at all.

★ 7.0Couple

I booked and paid for a king size bed premier room but was told it’s fully taken.

★ 8.0Couple

Both time i had experienced trouble to access out when i inserted the validated parking coupon.

★ 9.0Family with Children

So the luggage was brought in on a trolley and we went off for lunch.

★ 9.0Family with Children

The reception just said ..... oh sorry then proceeded to do my check out.

★ 3.0Couple

Before we ask they already give us 2 keys, wifi and connecting rooms.

★ 9.0Family with Children

I reported this to reception so hopefully they have investigated and cleaned up.

★ 9.0Couple

The help button was not clear due to the loud blower noise.

Parking: What guests say

View WEIL Hotel Ipoh

64 relevant reviews

Complimentary, covered parking is shared with Ipoh Parade Mall, typically on Levels 4–5, with direct hotel access and RM30/day valet parking. Recurring complaints include confusing signage, long peak-hour ramps, limited spaces, repeated ticket validation or unreadable-ticket failures, and dark, worn areas. Sharp or steep exits and speed bumps may trouble larger or lowered cars.

Better read a bit from previous guests' experiences about the parking space to get yourself prepared and smoothen the process (you need to drive up to level 4 and drive to hotel parking which is on your right)- acceptable when you have already expected it.

★ 8.0Family with Children

The parking ticket machines at the 4th level are annoying, I've stayed there for four nights, and I am stucked behind the barrier almost every day because my tickets were not readable, even though I had validated my tickets every time before exiting.

★ 7.0Business Travellers

The car parking tickets are quite confusing. We got the first ticket before we started climbing up the ramp. After we reaching the podium, there r two zones and there is another ticket booth to enter the hotel guest zone.

★ 5.0Family with Children

We didn’t even park it at a car parking place just guided by the security to park opposite the lobby at the side of the entrance road but we were still charge for 30 Ringgit.

★ 4.0Couple

The hotel shares the car park with the mall, just follow the signs through the mall car park until you reach the designated hotel parking area at Level 4 and 5.

★ 10.0Family

What we do not like is the hotel carpark was closed a few times and we had to get around to the mall carpark to get to level 4 hotel carpark.

★ 8.0Family with Children

The hotel gives free parking to guests which is fantastic, but once the Concierge at the lobby issues the free exit pass, you need to leave the carpark within 15 minutes.

★ 9.0Solo Traveller

It’s located on the 4th floor of Ipoh Parade, and at peak times, it’s nearly impossible to reach because cars line up along the winding path leading to the 4th floor.

★ 5.0Family with Children

I managed to find a parking space and unload my luggage from the car without having to walk too far to take the elevator down to the hotel lobby.

★ 9.0Solo Traveller

Parking : quiet okay & a bit hassle when you encounter with invalid/unreadable ticket. you have to park your car, valid it again @ concierge/hotel lobby. Wasting my time.

★ 8.0Family with Children

Carpark at level 4 is a bit hassle because have to ramp up and down every time we went out and have to validate parking ticket.

★ 6.0Family with Children

We were not able to exit the mall carpark with the special ticket issued by the concierge, resulting in us being stuck at the exit.

★ 8.0Couple

Parking was a bit inconvenient but we were only there for 2 nights so we left it there until we left, everywhere is walkable

★ 8.0Couple

The Car parking has to be better defined so that guest can know where to place their car for ease of unloading the luggages.

★ 8.0Couple

There is bump at the top of the ramp that cause our cars to scrape the undercarrige when exiting from B3 to B4.

★ 9.0Couple

Also car park walls , at least for the hotel section need to be well painted and not looking like very worn out.

★ 8.0Couple

Most disappointing part was the parking area, there's water leaking from the ceiling and most of the area was dusty and wet.

★ 8.0Family with Children

The access to the hotel carpark and Ipoh Parade merge into the same carpark ramp even though they have separate entrances.

★ 9.0Solo Traveller

We are a bit confuse how to exit from the carpark as the route design not really car-friendly.

★ 10.0Couple

Staff at the hotel concierge is also unclear about the parking system and gave us incorrect information.

★ 8.0Couple

Parking lots too high up, need to validate parking tickets and change lifts to rooms.

★ 5.0Family with Children

Hotel parking at level 4, taking longer time to go up to level 4.

★ 9.0Family with Children

Require to make a few adjustments before can exit the car park.

★ 7.0Couple

Limited car park lots especially it clash with an event/ function

★ 8.0Extended Group

The assist button on the ticket machine is totally not function.

★ 5.0Couple

Also your parking on level b5 is dirty and unsafe.

★ 9.0Couple

During peak hours, quite difficult to get a parking.

★ 9.0Family with Children

One card for one floor and not friendly parking

★ 2.0Family with Children

Parking is a dizzying spiral up and down.

★ 8.0Couple

Must wait for sometime for a lot.

The Chinese restaurant is repeatedly praised for delicious Cantonese dishes, especially duck, with friendly staff. Guests also highlight rooftop views, quality food, generous breakfasts, and complimentary late-night supper. Recurring concerns include inconsistent restaurant opening hours, unavailable advertised dim sum, slow service, lukewarm buffet food, limited alcohol, and an occasionally empty or poorly managed dining atmosphere.

I popped in to the mall next to Weil, headed straight for a non-descript eating joint with a hole-in-the-wall ambience, and had what still feels like the best Assam Laksa I have ever had.

★ 10.0Solo Travel

The highlight was the rooftop restaurant by the pool - we didn't go swimming, but in the evening you could sit there beautifully, look over the city, and enjoy a cold beer or cocktails

★ 7.0Couple

Many would just opt to eat out and I would suggest you to do so, unless u are like me and was just too exhausted from working the entire day.

★ 7.0Solo Traveller

Glad that I decided to try their Chinese restaurant after hearing positive review about their food (staff there is friendly and food eg Duck and Fried Rice are good)

★ 9.0Family with Children

There is also no staff. Just briefly serving food, placing drinks, and eventually someone comes and takes the beer from the cabinet and the wine, and that's it.

★ 5.0Couple

My wife had food poisoning for most of her trip because she ate the salad in the restaurant buffet which was probably washed with the contaminated water.

★ 6.0Couple

In room dining food was acceptable (I ordered mainly from the Asian cuisine menu) and hotel food charges were reasonable for hotel rates.

★ 7.0Solo Traveller

The Chinese restaurant, Yuk Sou Hin, is also worth visiting as their food is delicious and the staff are friendly and helpful.

★ 8.0Couple

Only downside is hotel Chinese restaurant said they stopped serving dim sum 6 years ago, but this is still advertised as available.

★ 8.0Couple

Was looking forward to the Gastrobar, which was indicated to open at 4pm - 1pm, but was told it opens at 6pm.

★ 10.0Couple

In the evening at 11pm, guests gathered to enjoy a free supper of porridge, green bean soup and soya bean milk.

★ 8.0Couple

Other than that, was also disappointed with the Chinese restaurant, which promoted it had dim sum, but it didn’t have any.

★ 10.0Couple

The Lounge was poor with minimal snacks, warm beer topped up in fridge only after happy hour disgusting wine, no cocktails.

★ 7.0Couple

Also dined at the rooftop top bar overlooking ipoh, great food and drinks and spectacular views of ipoh at night.

★ 8.0Solo Travel

Dissapointed and surprised that the Chinese restaurant (supposedly quite well known) located in the Hotel is not open on Tuesday.

★ 8.0Family with Children

If you want to eat well, though, I suggest trying the Chinese restaurant inside the hotel: it is really excellent.

★ 6.0Couple

The alcoholic beverages offered were just beer, white wine, and red wine, though you couldn't really call the wine wine.

★ 5.0Couple

I ate in the chinese restaurant in the hotel for dinner - delicious, great selection of dishes, especially the duck!

★ 7.0Family with Children

No beer or wine available unless a bottle bought in the Chinese restaurant and then only one wine option.

★ 8.0Solo Traveller

There is a good reason no one uses their restaurant but I do not think they can grasp it.

★ 6.0Couple

Another time we used the bar we wanted to order some food but was told the kitchen was closed.

★ 8.0Couple

There was only one bar which wasn't open on a Sunday when we wanted a drink to relax.

★ 8.0Couple

The Cantonese restaurant served very good dishes and their smoked duck with lychee was superb!

★ 8.0Family with Children

In the night they also offer on the house supper from 11pm to Midnight.

★ 10.0Friends Getaway

We had dinner at the Chinese restaurant in the hotel.

★ 10.0Couple

Gym: What guests say

View WEIL Hotel Ipoh

21 relevant reviews

Gym feedback is predominantly negative: guests describe a small, carpeted meeting room with very limited equipment, too few benches, no mirrors, and sometimes poor maintenance. The room may be uncomfortably cold, though access is free and one guest enjoyed views of the Titiwangsa Range; a few reviews call it well equipped.

Gym facilities is terrible , it is not a proper gym room and located in a seminar room with limited gym set .

★ 5.0Family with Children

The only letdown I would say is the gym which has cardio equipment and some free weights, but no machines for workouts

★ 8.0Couples

The 'gym' is a good example since its made up of a few machines in an old meeting room with carpeted floor.

★ 7.0Couple

Gym location was weird, on the same floor as function halls, and was at a corner, with not much to offer.

★ 7.0Extended Group

The gymnasium is not very suitable and should not be carpeted except for the limited window space

★ 10.0Solo Traveller

Another disappointing point is the gym is lacking of equipments that a 5-star hotel should have.

★ 6.0Family with Children

Also, larger towels would be great as well as disinfection spray/liquid to clean up after exercising.

★ 8.0Couple

I enjoyed the gym's view especially from the treadmill as it is overseeing the Titiwangsa Range.

★ 7.0Solo Traveller

It is actually a meeting room converted by putting a few workout benches and machines.

★ 6.0Couple

This is probably the first ever hotel gym I ever stayed without a mirror.

★ 6.0Couple

The air conditioning is blowing very cold air and the room is extremely cold.

★ 5.0Solo Traveller

Need a couple more workout benches in the gym, one is not enough.

★ 8.0Couple

The hotel has everything to keep guests happy - a well equipped gym.

★ 8.0Couple

And to adjust the temperature they told they need help from technicians.

★ 5.0Solo Traveller

Kind of depressing to say the least in 2026.

Transport: What guests say

Grab taxis are consistently described as fast, available, and reasonably priced, with attractions 10–15 minutes away and the airport about 15 minutes. The hotel offers no shuttle or managed taxi service, though free parking in the interconnected Ipoh Parade mall is convenient. Morning and afternoon traffic can slow departures, and one valet-parking request was mishandled.

Going anywhere from the hotel was a breeze as Grab taxis were always available, arrived swiftly, and were reasonably priced.

★ 8.0Couple

They don’t offer transportation which was very weird for a 5* hotel but we had grab so it was ok!

★ 8.0Couple

I said at least help me now but the manager was so arragont and told the staff just say no.

★ 7.0Family with Children

I chose valet which was the best choice as the parking in the mall was not convenient at night.

★ 8.0Family with Children

Taking a cab to places of interest took about 10 to 15 minutes which is pretty fast.

★ 8.0Couple

Due to a delayed flight, no train tickets available from KL, the only option was a bus.

★ 8.0

Maybe offer paid shuttle service a few times a day to old town and shopping area.

★ 8.0Couple

Later when I reached the hotel they said they never got the request from booking.com.

★ 7.0Family with Children

Traffic jam usually in the morning and afternoon, when you go out from the hotel.

★ 9.0Family with Children

With the rental car or Grab you can quickly get to the city center.

★ 9.0Family with Children
