Family Friendly Hotel in Jb!
I’m so excited to share with all of you about Ramada Suites by Wyndham The Straits in Johor Bahru!
I’m not sure if it’s because I rarely stay in hotels or if I usually get small hotel rooms, but when I visited Ramada Suites, the room was super impressive! It even came with a fridge, an electric stove, and a microwave!
The best part is that the hotel is conveniently located near Johor Bahru city center, with plenty of restaurants nearby. Another highlight is that there’s no deposit required, and I was able to check in as early as 1 PM without any extra charges.
So, if you’re looking for a family-friendly hotel, I highly recommend Ramada Suites by Wyndham The Straits!

🇲🇾Merry Fiery Christmas 🎄 For Lala Hotpot Lovers at Johor Bahru
🇲🇾𝑴𝒆𝒓𝒓𝒚 𝑭𝒊𝒆𝒓𝒚 𝑪𝒉𝒓𝒊𝒔𝒕𝒎𝒂𝒔! 🎄🔥
.
I stumbled upon 5PM Lalapot 五点啦啦煲 in Johor Bahru and decided to give it a try. I asked if single diner is welcomed🤣, and that's how it got me in, I went for their one-pax option—and wow! The portion size is impressive, with the same soup pot size and a generous 500g of clams. It’s incredibly satisfying, especially when I added extra ingredients to the mix.
.
For just RM25, I got a simple yet hearty single-person pot. For a Singaporean, that’s a steal—it’s basically food court prices back home, but with an entire pot of lala here in JB!
.
The soup itself is rich and wonderfully fragrant. But the real surprise? The “fire show” that comes with the meal! I didn’t expect it until some friendly aunties at the next table warned me to “run and escape from the table” when it starts. Their dramatic advice had me laughing, and the whole experience felt so unique and fun.
.
Definitely a memorable meal worth trying!

Take a weekend trip to a luxurious hotel!
Amari hotel in Johor Bahru is a very popular accommodation that Singaporeans like to stay at! If you are looking for a short weekend getaway, this 5-star hotel is a good and affordable option.
It has all the facilities you need within the property itself, like the swimming pool, gym, spa and even a club lounge. However, the staff are not as friendly but if you decide not to interact with them, you will probably have a good experience!
My overall rating of the experience: 4 out of 5 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

This was such a relaxing getaway weekend stay
Located near the checkpoint between Johor Bahru and Singapore, this hotel is indeed a great place to stay for a chill weekend trip! It has many room categories to choose from. For a small top-up fee, you can get to enjoy the executive club lounge amenities.
Nearby, there are many small shops and restaurants you can eat at so there is definitely variety. All in all, a good location for an accommodation but service from the staff can be improved.
My overall rating of the experience: 4 out of 5 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

🇲🇾 Many wellness spa in JB
#spas #100WaysOfTravel
I enjoy Indonesian and Thai massage style and going to Johor Bahru for this spa service is value for money. There are many options for me at Johor Bahru. This Javanese massage and spa place has many branches in Johor Bahru. Even inside at City Square also has 2 branches. It is designed to have dim lighting and some of their massage rooms do not have door, only curtain for privacy. They have jacuzzi spa too but it is subject to availability because there is only 1 jacuzzi available. If you are a member, you get instant discount for services each time. It is also hard to take photos inside because of the dim lighting. Make sure you call or message them in advance to make an appointment. If they are full then you can consider the Thai massage place too.
