“This hotel, recognized as Ipoh's first international lodging, strikes me as an interesting mix of established prestige and prime location near local attractions. I see value in the non-halal dining options and event spaces, like the Excelsior Ballroom, even though some might find the vibe a bit old-fashioned. For travelers prioritizing convenience and a central base, this could be a solid choice.”
