KSL Resort Johor Bahru City Centre
KSL Resort Johor Bahru City Centre is a hotel in the heart of Johor Bahru, Malaysia, built directly above a shopping mall. The rooms have wood finishes, a flat-screen TV, a safe, and a bathroom with a rain shower, while the building also contains a swimming pool, a water park, a gym, and an arcade.
The hotel was developed by KSL Group, a Malaysian property company that has been active in Johor Bahru since the 1990s. It was built as part of a larger mixed-use project combining retail, accommodation, and residential spaces in a single development.
The hotel sits within a building that connects directly to a large shopping mall, a format common in Johor Bahru. Locals and visitors often move between the two without stepping outside, making shopping and eating part of the daily rhythm of a stay here.
The hotel is within easy reach of the Johor Bahru checkpoint connecting to Singapore, making it convenient for cross-border travelers. Parking is available through the adjoining mall, though the area can get heavy with traffic during peak hours, so arriving earlier in the day is a good idea.
The hotel has a golf simulator available for rent, letting guests play a round of golf indoors without leaving the building. This sits alongside the water park and pool, making the on-site options more varied than what most city hotels offer.
