The residence didn't have WIFI but the place was good, clean and spacious overall. The toilets were clean too, although not perfect, is well maintained. Water pressure from the shower is so-so but can do the job. The only drawback is that the cupboards seems a little dusty, so we didn't put anything in. The aircon to the gym was also not working and equipment doesn't seem to be very well maintained. However, it should be ok for the price.

I’ve booked apartment and studio suite. Both units are quite spacious but the conditions are not really good..wall paper in the apartment being tore, no unifi, airconds are not well functioning. As for the studio, the bed sheet got some stains and some parts are tore and housekeeping should be improved.

Nice Place, Not Customer Centric Trained Staff
I booked 2 Rooms, me and my friend. I happened to reach early and wanted to check-in both rooms and get the keys as my friend will arrive past midnight. The Staff refused to allow me to check-in on behalf of my friend, unless he sees the ID of the person; even though i booked the room under same booking. After exchange of unhappy and unpleasant conversations, finally we got the room and it late night and miserable experience of checking-in. I parked the car next to the hotel and to find that in the morning that it was premium paid parking and hotel did not update anything about parking while checking in. The room internet wasn't working. After few years of numerous visits and even booking this place for friends and groups, this experience leaves me no choice and i have no plans to book this hotel again. Overall, it makes my last visit to this place... Nice Place, Nice View, Not Customer Centric Trained Staff.

THE WORST HOTEL NOT ONLY IN MALACCA, BUT IN MALAYSIA - The whole unit is dirty! There are lots of dirty marks on the sofa. euuww.. The wall and toilet wall are dirty. It’s like they can’t afford a cleaner - No Wifi! Come on man.. It’s 2022 already! - Extra towell need to pay rm10. Whatttt???? First time in my life!! - Oven and washing machine are not allowed to be used. Then what’s the purpose of putting those amenities??? - The parking is confusing - RM1.5k for two nights with this bad condition, not worth ghe price at all Long story short, NOT RECOMMENDED AT ALL

Horrible stay.
Horrible room. The toilet was dirty with soiled toilet paper on the toilet floor when we checked in. The phone on the table wasn’t working. The heater wasn’t working. The aircon wasn’t cold. The basin was clogged. There are no good channels on the TV. One man receptionist. Told them about the basin clog , but they didn’t bother to repair it or change my room. Extra towel is chargeable . No daily housekeeping . First and last time to stay there. One word - horrible.

Will not repeat this hotel until they improve all.
Check-in process not so convenience. No Bell Boy can help for your luggage. Not Baby Crib available even in filter Hotel.com said got. Water heater not function, technician come then okay. But afterward our unit was blackout at 3 AM, but no technician available, they said we need to change to another unit. No wonder this hotel only got 3 star. Only got 4 lift available. Their level 2 the Shore Ocenarium and the Shore Sky at level 42 floor is awesome. Worth to come to these 2 place if stay here but closed every wednesday. Plan properly.

Not ideal Stay at The Shore
There is a stench smell at the corridor level that I stay at floor 11. Must wait Long time for the lift as once it’s full load, it will miss skip your level. The most disappointing is u have to pay $10 ringgit for additional towel although u indicates in hotel.com website. The floor manager said if book directly through the hotel website will be different. To use the pool service, the Swiss garden hotel have pool towels for their guest whereas the Shore hote guest have to bring their own from the room. Not likely to come back to this hotel during my next stay!

It was a really wonderful stay. My only grouse was the aircon in the room which was not cold enough. Luckily it was just for a night but that aside, I am very happy with the place. It was my second time there. The staffs were friendly and nice during check in. Great job to them!

Property looks exactly how it was portrayed in the photos, however issues like clogged drain at shower area, spoilt shower head at bath tub, low water pressure and time taken for hot water are issues with the bathroom. The sofa has a sweaty smell and dont even lie back on the only chair in the room, as u will definitely fall flat on the ground. Long waiting time for the lift is also an issue, on average 10 to 20mins wait, as there are 42 levels and only 4 lifts per block. There is also a notice at the lift lobby to i form guests of thenlong waiting time for the lifts.

First time staying in this hotel
1st time staying in this hotel. Check in was ok. First impression of room, door was covered with dust. Room was spacious. Only 2 bath towels, no hand or face towels. No bath mat. Bathroom floor can be wet and slippery as one steps out. Stayed 2 nights but no housekeeping or replenishing of water on 2nd day. Lifts are slow and always full.

Family stay over the long weekend . Life service is horrible as there is only 4 lifts available serving 40++ storeys. First time experiencing no customer service available . No one pick up after calling the front desk and room service There stains on the bedsheet and sofa Dusty cabinets with faulty safe . No room service available. We request for room housekeeping n the staff want to do the housekeeping on the spot when we are still in the room. WiFi available but not working. Building inside with no amenities . We requested for baby cot but not available.
