Great stay at KSL Resort Johor Bahru

This hotel puts you right in the heart of Johor Bahru's action, with the lively KSL night market at your doorstep and endless shopping just steps away in the attached mall. The unbeatable location means you're surrounded by massage parlors, local eateries, and convenience stores - no need for taxis once you check in.
Rooms are clean and functional, offering comfortable beds and reliable air conditioning (a must in JB's heat). While not luxurious, they provide everything you need for a short getaway. The only downside is the often slow check-in process, especially on weekends when crowds of Singaporean visitors arrive.
Highlights:
- Night market snacks available just outside the lobby
- Dozens of affordable massage options within 2 minutes' walk
- Direct mall access for air-conditioned shopping and dining
- 24-hour mamak stalls nearby for late-night cravings
Perfect for:
- Weekend shopping getaways
- Foodies wanting easy access to local flavors
- Families needing convenience above luxury
Tip: Request a higher floor room facing away from the market for less noise. Visit the night market early (before 8pm) to avoid the biggest crowds.
Why we return: Where else can you roll out of bed and have char kway teow, foot massages, and retail therapy all before
