Travel: Malaysia - Cameron Highlands

[jacsplace]

Could those of you who stayed at Century Pines please share what puts this above the other hotels at Cameron Highlands?


I’m really confused by all the mixed reviews on TripAdvisor. Every hotel in the highlands seems to have some kind of problem. I know perfection doesn’t exist, but with other places, I can usually pin one hotel down as having problems that we can deal with when we are there.

But I can’t seem to do this with the Cameron hotels!

Oh cos heard of this hotel from some people who have gone to Camerom Higlands, and read from agoda.com that many people stayed there and the reviews were generally positive. Haven't book yet, any other suggestions?

I personally feel stay at Brinchang area better. The pasar malam and most attractions are there.

Re: Century Pines

We stayed there a couple of years ago.
You can refer to the blog entry I put up. The room was huge and very spacious.

However, I am not sure of if the rooms are well maintained. You know that in general, the country isn't big on maintenance.

Brinchang is like 15 to 20 min drive away, depending on traffic.

Yes, I drive there before. 9 hours travel time as we stop over many times. I'm not sure how much time it cost for a coach, but should be longer than private transport I believe.

anyone has KL drivers to recommend for pickup at KL to go Cameron Highlands?
