Disappointed with the hotel's integrity and handling of lost property
Pros:

I am deeply disappointed with the hotel's lack of integrity and poor response after I lost my digital watch during my stay.

Immediately after checking out, I realised my watch was missing. It took me only about two hours from checkout to arriving at the airport to notice it was no longer on my wrist. I did not go anywhere else during that time, and I am absolutely certain that I left the watch in my room.

I made every possible effort to contact the hotel – I sent emails, made phone calls, and sent text messages. Despite my persistence, it took three full days for the hotel to finally respond. When I did receive an answer, both the Lost & Found team and the management simply told me that they could not find my watch.

What disappointed me the most was the hotel's lack of integrity and urgency. Instead of taking immediate action or providing a clear and respectful explanation, I was left waiting for days with no proper follow-up. As a guest, I expect a hotel of this standard to act promptly and transparently when it comes to a guest's lost personal property.

I truly hope the hotel improves its lost-and-found procedures and takes guest concerns more seriously in the future.

puan Julie tan execellent service
Pros:

We had an event on 15 March with Hidayah Foundation Centre at Trove Hotel, and the service we received was truly excellent. Ms. Julie Tan (SSM) was outstanding in every aspect. Her professionalism, hospitality, and attention to detail made the entire event run very smoothly. We are very grateful to have had her handle our event. Without her support and coordination, our event would not have been possible. Her dedication, along with the teamwork from her team, truly made a difference. Thank you very much to Ms. Julie Tan and her team for the tip-top service. We will definitely return to Trove Hotel whenever we have future events.

Professional and helpful sales manager
Pros:

Testimonial for Ms. Julie, Senior Sales Manager – TROVE Hotel Johor Bahru
Our group of 500 students stayed at TROVE Hotel Johor Bahru from 9–12 March, and the entire experience was exceptionally smooth thanks to Ms. Julie, the Senior Sales Manager who handled our stay.
Her professionalism and dedication were outstanding. She consistently went above and beyond to ensure every requirement was met—even before we asked. With her experience, commitment, and attention to detail, our entire event ran perfectly without a single hiccup.
We also faced unexpected challenges, such as misplaced items including a passport and an iPad. Ms. Julie immediately took action, managed to locate the missing items, and kept them securely for us until they were returned. This level of responsibility and care truly reflects her exceptional service.
I strongly recommend Ms. Julie for handling any event or group booking. She always goes the extra mile, and our stay would not have been as successful without her.

Best choice for wedding’s tea ceremony
Pros:

We chose Trove Hotel for our wedding and tea ceremony and it was truly one of the best decisions we made. It made our lives and the entire morning ceremony much easier.

From the initial planning stage to the actual wedding day, the team at Trove Hotel was highly professional and attentive. Many details that couples might easily overlook were already thoughtfully planned and taken care of, allowing the entire morning to run smoothly and giving us great peace of mind.

The staff were patient, helpful, and respectful of our preferred pace and flow. On the day itself, the coordination, timing, and attention given to our family members made us feel well supported and comfortable.

The room and common areas were clean, comfortable, and nicely designed, making them very suitable for wedding photos. The overall atmosphere was elegant yet relaxed, and the photo results exceeded our expectations.

A special mention goes to the breakfast buffet. The selection was generous, and the food was SUPERB delicious. Our family and friends enjoyed it very much and gave many compliments, which added to the positive start of our special day.

Overall, Trove Hotel provided more than just a venue, the team played an important role in creating a meaningful and memorable wedding morning for us. We are truly grateful for their professionalism and warm service.

Highly recommended for couples planning their wedding or anyone looking for a reliable and thoughtful hotel team.

The Trove is a great choice!
Pros:

I stayed at The Trove for two weeks in December. The staff was incredible and made sure my stay was enjoyable in every way. Linda at the front desk, Rashid in housekeeping, Alvin at the Borneo Spa, and the staff at the great breakfast buffet, especially stand out in their efforts to make my stay enjoyable.

The location was a plus with several outstanding restaurants within walking distance.
I’ll definitely return to the Trove the next time I travel to JB!
