Location is excellent. Hotel itself is a budget hotel, so don't expect much of you stay here.

Hotel too noisy at night next to a main road. Young lady Malay receptionist very helpful during our stay helped us find a travel agent to book a couple of private tours as there are no organised trips from this town.all other staff very friendly.

Staying in Non smoking room(with smoke free signboard in the room) but the room filled with cigarette smell, complaint to the staff but they said nothing they can do. Requested to change to another room but still another smelly room with cigarette smell. Clearly the hotel management didn't bother or take any action about smoking in the Non smoking room.

The location of the hotel is excellent. You are surrounded by all the famous eateries. The staff of the hotel are a bit cold and room is a bit on the small size, maybe this can be reflected by the price we paid.

It invites you to think about its bygone days
I stayed here for 2 nights last week. I want to say Le Metrotel is the type of place where they offered "old fashioned service". The older gentleman manning the front desk during the day (who I guess is the hotel manager?) is your typical friendly 'uncle' type. He'll accommodate with any requests that you have. The same hold trues for the service ladies - who are also your typical older 'aunties' type. Unfortunately, the hotel itself - outside of the lobby which is deceivingly refreshed - has seen its best days already. The bathroom is particularly old, and the towels even older. The lack of free toiletries was surprisingly, given that it's usually a standard freebie in Asia. I stayed in a standard room and the room itself was comfortable, if unspectacular. As others have mentioned, the night market is right next to the hotel. If you're in Ipoh for an overnight stay, without a car, and you're looking for a budget stay for the night market, this hotel may be for you. Otherwise, you may want to try exploring your options.

Good location hotel, but not enough car parking!
We choice this hotel, because of the nice location, close to the famous food shop, but unhappy is not enough car park parking for us, their car park may give to public, so when we back to car park, no more parking for us, need to tell the hotel staff and want to move the car later, very disappointed!

1) Hotel is clean & all the staff are good & responsive. However, the hotel towels are quite old.... 2) Location is superb & very convenient. One downside is the hotel parking lots at the back during weekend is not so pleasant as non-hotel guests were also allowed to park there !!

Great location but very small room and noisy.
The only reason to stay in this hotel is its location. All the famous dishes around Ipoh are in walking distance. The hotel also provided an open air private parking place, so you don't have to worry about finding a place to park your car. Room is very small that even with 2 person in the room you feel crowded, and for the same price I believe you can get a bigger room somewhere else.no refrigerator in room, only a liquid soap is provided in the toilet, and it was for both body shower and hair shampoo. The shower curtain is dirty. I can hear the noise of the traffic from my room (at 2nd floor). No carpet in the corridor and poor sound-proofing as you can hear peoples walk and talk outside your room.

Fabulous location
Located in the new town but only 12 minutes walk to old town and located on a restaurant street where eateries open till the early hours of the morning every night. There's a night market on the next street every night. Best salt baked chicken best kaya puffs best soy bean drink all along this street and the next. Helpful staff and well secured premises. Room is comfortable with all basic necessities. Only setback no outside calls on room phone but reception staff will assist if necessary.

Hotel is near good famous food and easy to roam about Ipoh from this location. However, the layout of the bathroom is horrendous and showering area is less than 2 feet wide between the wall and the curtain. Too narrow for any comfort.

Nice hotel at the price! Staff were most helpful when we arrived very early in the morning on the train. Air conditioning was quiet compared to a lot of budget hotels I have stayed in in Malaysia.
