Independent, Kuala Tahan hotels

"Gorgeous setting by the river with lodge style room, lots of activities, friendly staff and good food - especially considering you’re in a rainforest. "

"Don’t book this just for the pool, that’s for sure. Not like the photo on the booking. The room was really dirty, lizard poop on the walls that wasn’t even fresh, the light fixtures had a thick layer of dust on them. The beds and linen were seemingly clean though. I was a little annoyed because the listing said this place had laundry and then when I asked the front desk he referred me to a woman in town (not close) to take it to and pay her to do it. The hotel is not super close to the main area but the staff will drive you in the hotel truck if you ask them and for driving it is very close. I don’t know if they run their own river tours ever but he referred us to another company for this as well which makes the photos on their listing a bit misleading since they show boats on the River. It was very cheap though"

"Lovely people who run this place and great location right on the river "
