    Hutton Central is a very comfortable place to stay. The room is more like an apartment with plenty of space and facilities like a fridge, washing machine etc. Note: people complain about the reception not being occupied but the staff communicate very reliably via WhatsApp. There is plenty of noise from the street, but that is to be expected for a downtown location in Asia. Would definitely stay here again.

    Our default hotel on the island. Close enough to everything that matters; not too close so you're away from the madness. Well appointed apartment with a washer dryer that's always a deal-maker for us. p/s: thank you for the upgrade ❣️

    No elevator/ lift. So, if you bring big luggages, they'd be a hassle.

    The location is fantastic—right in the heart of the city and conveniently situated in front of an excellent Nasi Kandar restaurant. If you're not a light sleeper, the street noise won't be an issue. The room itself is spacious, impeccably clean, and beautifully designed with high ceilings that add to the sense of openness. It comes fully equipped with all the necessary amenities, including a convenient 2-in-1 washing machine and dryer. The staff are exceptionally helpful and go out of their way to ensure a pleasant stay. Highly recommended!

    Relaxed Stay in a Comfortable Room
    • Leisure trip

    • 1 Bedroom

    The room was beginning to show some wear. Some missing flecks of paint on the walls, a chip in the flooring, a large stain on the seat of the couch, and so on. The bum gun in the bathroom leaked, but it was easy to turn the water to the hose off between uses, so not a great problem. There was nobody in the property's office during our stay, so we had to communicate via WhatsApp with the staff, including sending them a message when we were 10-15 minutes away on arrival. That could be troublesome if a traveler did not have phone service arranged before arrival. We were there during Ramadan so they may have been running on fewer staff than normal, but response times were good nevertheless.

    The room was in a great downtown location with many restaurants, a bakery, and several mini-marts nearby. We did not have a car so we either walked or took Grab to go everywhere and it worked great. The main living space was large and we spent a lot of time at the dining table or on the couch during the warmer parts of the day. The bedroom was separate so if one of us got up early we did not bother the other. The combo washer/drawer was great to have as well. The room had a good shower and a decent-size bathroom as well.

    The property is along the road side if don't mind the traffic noise . Need to carry your luggage up the stairs.

    The property is clean and updated with good kitchen facilities. Bathroom clean with good shower pressure. Aircon works fine and quiet. Large spacious room. Large bed with soft and comfortable pillows. Most of the eateries and places of interest are within walking distance if don't mind the traffic otherwise you call a Grab taxi which is the most convenient way to move around the town and the fare is reasonable. The staff Seyviar Lam and team were very helpful and nice. Check in was smooth and they allow me to check in early. Communication is through "whatsapp" and the response is fast.

    It took a while to get used to the traffic noise as our room was right next to the crossroad junction and the motorbikes were very noisy but we were expecting some noise as its a busy city.

    The property was spacious. Bed comfortable. Sufficient clothing storage space. Washer/dryer was really good as we were halfway through our 3.5 week holiday and in need of some clean washing. Bathroom very nice. A great base to explore the area. There was a lovely gift of 2 oranges and an envelope with 2 chocolate coins to celebrate Chinese New Year left on the dining table to welcome us which was very thoughtful.

    First off we absolutely loved the location, location, location. Checking in and gaining access to the unit was a breeze. Amirul the front office personnel was a darling. We communicated through WhatsApp the entire time, and the response was instance. This is actually our 4th time staying with Hutton Central & Suites, so you could say we are biased!
