I had a very comfortable stay at this incredibly clean hotel. The bathtub was just the right size and really helped me relax after a long day of travel. The shower pressure was also excellent. I appreciated the separation between the toilet and shower. The morning buffet was beautifully presented, and every dish was delicious. All the staff members were very friendly and welcoming, which I really appreciated.

This was our 1st stay in the resort and it turned out to an interesting & awesome experience! We checked-in on 11th of March & checked-out on 13th of March. I booked a 2-single bed room but the hotel given us a king bed room at the upper floor. After talking to the front desk. I was told only king bed room was available. However, my wife didn't have a good night sleep as she was having light sleep, so easily waken-up due to noise & movement. The upper floor somehow was noisy due to the traffic outside the hotel. We have no choice but to feedback to the hotel manager on the 2nd day. The manager Ms Su was kind enough and upgraded us to a 2 bedroom suite on the ground floor, with 2 single beds & a king bed. That made our 2nd night slept peacefully. Thanks Ms Su of her attentiveness. The morning breakfast was a ala carte menu of Malaysian & western cuisine. Not a fantastic food but the service given by the professional F&B staffs made the experience so pleasant! Sincere thanks to F&B supervisor Santhosh & staff Myint of their attentive service.

Overall is good. The location is quite convenient. The golf course is in front of the balcony and the scenery is beautiful. The house is quite clean, the kitchen has a microwave, rice cooker, hot water bottle, refrigerator, kitchenware, etc. The only thing to improve is that the wash basins of the two toilets are a bit blocked (the water is slow). You need to wait for the water to flow. The next person can use 😂, and one of the water heaters can't operate without hot water! ! The 16-degree weather didn't have to take a hot bath. It was really cold and shivering. If the above is handled well, it will be more perfect. I will still choose this one next time I go to Cameron. Iris house resort

Clean and comfortable, perfect accoms! The water pressure was great, and everything in the accoms were very clean. Wifi connection was really fast too! Towels were provided and it was clean and had a nice scent. There is a fridge, freezer, induction stove and all cooking pans, so you can cook your own food if you want to. The self check-in and check-out process was smooth and quick, very convenient! Location-wise, it is quite okay as there are a few good places to eat nearby. If you have a car, it is just about 10min drive to Brinchang where there are lots of food. Lastly, the hosts (Jason and Wendy), are very prompt in replying and very nice - Jason ensured all the smooth check-in and check-out process, as well as recommended lots of good food places for us to try, which we did and they were yummy indeed! Don't hesitate to book this accoms if you visit CH, 100% highly recommended and will book again if come! 🥳

What a great place! Loved staying here. We had a warm welcome from our caretaker Lily, who shared all the tips of enjoying the place with us. I emailed in advance to add breakfast and dinner, and a simple but good spread was provided. Highly suggest you can contact and discuss with them on what ingredients are provided, so that you can shop or add more on your own if you wish. Most important of all was that the accommodation was spotless and super clean. Do note there is no air-conditioning in rooms, but there was a good ceiling fan, which was sufficient. Just be prepared if you are not used to 'camping' vibes - flies and insects are common but Lily spares no effort to put up repellents and traps to minimise them. On our first night, it was cloudy, so we could not see any stars. We were blessed with a clear night the next day, where the stars were super bright, and just laying out on the darkness to watch them is so amazing. We also got to meet goats from the nearby farm for free. Thank you again for the wonderful stay.

About 20 years ago, on a trip to Cameron Highlands, I went to Ye Olde Smokehouse for a classic English high tea. It was gorgeous, with a fire in the fireplace and all the staples of a proper high tea including scones and such. This time, since we were going to Cameron Highlands, I thought we should actually stay at the Smokehouse. Great decision. It's as charming as ever. Staying there gave us a chance to enjoy the lovely bar, gardens, dining room - all very old school and pukka! Staff are exceptional. Given that it's an old property, the rooms are a bit old school - but very nice all the same. Very reminiscent of a British club rather than a hotel - so perhaps not quite as refined as a modern 5 star hotel would be, but everything works, the rooms are comfy and there are lots of verandahs to sit out and enjoy the gardens from right outside your room. It was one of the more expensive hotels of our trip but definitely worth it.

I had a truly delightful stay at Heritage Hotel. The room was spacious, spotlessly clean, and beautifully maintained, with a stunning view of the scenery outside. The staff were courteous, friendly, and genuinely helpful. They kindly allowed an early check-in and even upgraded me to a bigger room — such a pleasant surprise! The location is also very convenient. A GrabCar ride to the Tanah Rata bus terminal costs only about RM 8. While the breakfast spread is not the most extensive, the dishes served were really delicious and satisfying. What impressed me the most was the housekeeping service. I left in a hurry for a day tour and forgot to put out the “Make Up Room” sign. When I returned in the evening, I was so happy to find the room neatly tidied, the bed perfectly made up, and fresh towels provided. That level of attentiveness made me feel truly well taken care of. Thank you to the entire team at Heritage Hotel for making my stay so comfortable and enjoyable. I would highly recommend this hotel and will definitely return on my next visit to Cameron Highlands!

A wonderful place for hosting gatherings with family and friends. The property is well-equipped with a BBQ pit, plates, and other essentials, making it convenient for group meals and quality time together. We were warmly greeted by Joe upon arrival, and the service throughout our stay was impeccable. The hospitality was truly 5-star. I also loved the beautiful flowers in the garden, which added to the charm and tranquility of the property. A few suggestions for improvement: I didn’t realise that the room I reserved did not come with a TV, so clearer information during the booking process would be helpful. The mattress was a little too firm for my preference, and the lighting in both the room and bathroom felt somewhat dim, although I understand this may be part of the cottage ambience. It may also be worth considering separating the bathroom light switch from the ventilation fan for added convenience. I would also suggest providing a kettle in each room rather than on a shared basis. Having cups and complimentary coffee or tea in the room would further enhance guests’ comfort and convenience. Overall, a lovely stay with beautiful surroundings, excellent facilities for family gatherings, and exceptional service. I would be happy to return.

We still rated 5 stars as our stay was great overall. Just wanted to let you know that even though the ”DO NOT DISTRUB” sign was on, my friend saw staff and the manager opening her door room. Nothing was missing. The air conditioner also couldn't be adjusted, but everything else was fine.

Excellent location and experience when staying on Genting middle hill. Nice surroundings, facilities, and view. However, the restroom has let me down. The door isn't closing because the odor is spreading throughout the room. The stench is repulsive even when taking a bath. In general, we don't like the smell of the toilet. Please improve, and I'll be back.

They were really nice to provide fruits on our first day, very nice hotel to stay in however.. television wasn’t working esp the television in the toilet doesn’t have a remote controller that works. Shower gel wasn’t sufficient to fill the bathtub either. Other than that, the room and service from staff were great. View was beautiful too

The water pressure from the shower is low, one of us had to shower cold water until we manage to figure out the water pump. The host sent their maintenance guy to fix the water pump the next day at 9am (when we were still sleeping). Couldn't find the AC remote, took us 30 minutes to final find it next to one of the beds. The kitchen sink was clogged and making noise. Parking is a hassle as it's open air and you need to park quite a distance if you get back late. It was raining when we arrived, so we were all soaked due to the open air parking. We called the host at 12am to ask about the water pressure, he was responsive and helped us (over the phone) to sort it out. Water pressure is still low, but I guess that's the ”normal” pressure. Room can fit 6 adults comfortably. Good sound proofing.

Great host! Everything was good except the way to the property.. road was in bad shape maybe due to lots of construction site nearby..friendly host and check in & out was easy. My kids and family love staying here and consider coming back again in future..units are still new and only downside is that only 1 access card per unit which is a little troublesome.kudos to the host and please keep it up! Oh 1 last thing location was near to eateries and shops

Loved it! Everyone, from the front desk staff to the hot spring attendants and even the security guards, was incredibly polite and friendly. The room was super clean and comfortable, which was a huge plus. They even sent reminders for hot spring reservations, which was so thoughtful.

The hotel's location is good, but be aware that their partner is 7stonez. If possible, book through Agoda with a different partner so you can find someone at the front desk if issues arise. 7stonez customer service seems to be unreachable in person; they only communicate via WhatsApp. If you're not familiar with PDFs, you'll be left to figure things out on your own. When I checked in, I saw an uncle struggling with it for a long time.

The room was clean and well prepared when we arrived, which was appreciated. However, the hotel is located quite far from the main hustle and bustle area. It took us around 10–15 minutes to walk back to the hotel, and some routes involve stairs only, with no lift or escalator. This makes accessibility challenging, especially for senior guests. Service was very average, with no extra‑mile or personalised service experienced. Overall, it felt like a run‑of‑the‑mill operation catering to the masses rather than offering a memorable stay. Amenities were very basic and minimal, which may not meet expectations for guests looking for added comfort or convenience.

My son and I have stayed at this boutique hotel twice before, back in 2024. Now our 3rd stay, still always our favourite. Lobby area is comfortable and spacious, smooth check in and be sure have cash to pay for the conservation fee RM3 since no cashless option for this. The room is well equipped with comfortable queen bed, air condition, tv, mini bar, kettle and coffee tea as well bottled water. Bathroom has clean towels, toothbrush set, soap, shower cap and toilettries. Shower with hot water, good water pressure. Wardrobe has bedroom slippers, ironing board & iron,laundry bag and ample space to store your clothes. There is self service laundrette with a fee(washing machine & dryer) in hotel. Hair dryer is available upon request. Other facilities include surau, 7 Eleven, another convenient shop as well as hotel cafe which I think is only available for breakfast. One might enjoy the wonderful paintings all around the hotel public area, where there are comfortable seating area with sofas. Overall, pleasant stay for us as always.

Hi, the price was great and included breakfast. However, the breakfast menu was quite disappointing. The front office service was excellent—there was a staff member (I’m sorry I didn’t catch his name) who was especially helpful. The maintenance team was also superb. However, it was quite frustrating when we were already tired and the room’s electricity kept tripping repeatedly, and we eventually had to change rooms. Initially, there were no towels provided as well. Overall, it was an okay stay.

Overall stay was good. Owner was fast to respond to any needs Except we were expecting 2 single BEDS (as described in booking page), but was a little disappointed with only 2 single MATTRESS provided. So the kids had to sleep on the floor 😬 Also follow the instructions given in the series of photos. There are many tower blocks and lifts so things can be easily confused. There’s a water dispenser outside our room so that’s very helpful 👍

The hotel was prompt in responding and very kindly taking note and made special arrangements for our occasion of our child's birthday and wedding anniversary celebration. We had a lovely surprise and birthday song played when we checked in to our room. Amazing scenic views of mountain and KL city night lights, and comfortable bedding that gives us good sleep. Comfortable space to spend good family time. We enjoyed very much and would love to return or recommend to our friends and relatives! Only 2 suggestions to make: 1) the fan in our master bedroom (room 2008) makes some noise quite often during the night, good to have it checked and fixed to not affect guests' experience, and 2) if only the shower area in the bathrooms have a door to avoid water splashing out to the toilet area.

The cleaning was not very clean, and it felt like there was no floor or table. The outside terrace was not swept and there was a lot of dust. The location is relatively remote and the others are medium. Not too bad. There is a small kitchen in the room, there are dishes and spoons, you can cook fast noodles to eat 👍 The guard's service is very good 👍
