Been to the hotel last december with my family. After making a lot of phone calls for reservation, this was the only hotel available since it was super peak period (weekend of the school holidays). It was a value for money, though. The room was ok; quite small but cosy and clean. The view from the hotel was not that... more

I stayed in this hotel for 3 nights. It was ok. Not 5star material but for what we paid, it was adequete. Rooms were clean but outdated. There was a damp smell in the hall which wasn t very pleasant. Staff were kind and helpful. The beach wasn t up to much of course because of the jellyfish. We went... more

Booked this hotel on the basis of being a part of the Copthorne Group so it should have been okay. Well is wasn't. Effectively it is part of a huge construction yard with work from 6am to midnight constructing 3 huge 30+ floor apartment blocks within 50 meters of the hotel. The place is dusty and damp, the noise drives... more

This guest stayed at the hotel during June 2007. However the building works for the condominium project next to the hotel has completed since September 2007. There is no more noise and dust following the completion of this project. Business has since picked up and many guests had returned to stay at the hotel now.

Was transferred to this hotel as my accomodation at the Evergreen was mucked up! Rates were OK for this hotel and the location is close enough to Georgetown and the night markets at ferringhi. By cab about 10RM The downside however is this hotel has the worst food I have ever had (apart from a basic breakfast) - Staff were... more

I booked a family package so that I could have 4 breakfast for me, my husband and my 2 kids. The reception staff were nice and they let us checked in at 09.30am...But, I think the hotel was old...you can smell the 'old scent' right you walked into the hotel. Their room was better , I guess. The bathroom was... more

My parents had stayed here about six years ago, and although they said it was nothing fancy, we weren't planning on spending much time in the hotel so figured that the we could cope with a simpler hotel than we'd been staying at for the rest of our honeymoon. Unfortunately it seems to have gone downhill from "basic" to "bad"... more

I have returned from a 2 night stay in Copthorne Orchid. I was rather disappointed with a few of my experiences. The reception was great. Staff there are friendly and courteous. However, I found the room rather old. The condition of the bath tub gives me second thoughts about taking a warm bubble bath. The good thing is that wifi... more

We spent 3 nights here before Christmas 2007, and were quite disappointed with the hotel. The first thing we notised was that the overall look of the place and the atmosphere there werent what we had hoped for.. The first morning we went for breakfast one hour before the buffet was supposed to end, and several dishes had run out... more

Contrary to some of negative reviews given to the hotel, our experience at Copthorne was surprisingly pleasant. We also had had a looked at the photo by travellers provided by this website, and, happily, our room did not look at all like the photo provided. It was very sunny, clean and looked as if it was recently upgraded. Our only... more
