I stayed at the Hotel Dorsett/Silka Johor for three days after travelling from Egypt. I decided on this particular occasion to stay in Johor Bahru, rather than in Singapore, as at that time, I had not found a reasonably priced hotel in Singapore that I thought was truly great. I was quite impressed with the Dorsett/Silka, the price I got... More

Hmmm. The first impressions were not good. In this day and age and especially you expect breakfast to be included in the price. I can't remember the last place I stayed where it wasn't. This was pretty disappointing. Then the room was supposed to have internet via wifi, but it wouldn't connect. Apparently the first 3 floors are ok for... More

We bought 2 vouchers during the Visit Malaysia at S$70 a night and decided that perhaps two would be good to suse the place out. The manager Suggi was convincing and rather afable. A check online confirms that it was not a cheaper deal. The initial plan was to utilize the vouchers sometime next year but decided instead on the... More

I am satisfied with my stay here recently. Just a short 1 night stay whilst we do some shopping in JB including the new Johor Premium Outlet area where the hotel provides a shuttle to. I cannot say I expect anything more for the low price that we paid for the deluxe room. Most important for me for any hotel... More

Small little nice cozy hotel with privacy, clean room, just walking distance to Tesco and 5 - 10 min drive to Giant and Jusco. Breakfast was great which changes everyday with fresh cook egg counter, Great large pool with a small cafe, staff was friendly. Will definitely return to the hotel.

The room and bathroom was clean. However, the pillows were abit soft. Service was prompt to our request. Carpark is next to the hotel and you would need to climb stairs. Breakfast choice was limited but thats what other hotels in JB would also offer.

Dorsett Hotel Pelantong is now known as Silka Hotel. I just check out from this hotel today. The rooms are ok, but i find they need to add more lighting in the rooms. I do not find comfortable with very little lighting. The rooms come with 32'' LCD, study desk, iron, with 2 bottles of mineral water daily. One thing... More

This is one of the most frequent hotels I stay in. Reasonably priced, decent food, and excellent location. The water pressure can be an issue on certain floors but it's not really and issue. It would be better if they could change the breakfast variety every mornings. Clean rooms and good room service. They recently changed the name to Silka... More
