Hotel Sea Home Boutique (Tanjung Bungah, Malaysia)

If you're fed up of faceless chain hotels, the Sea Home Boutique Hotel could be your ideal antidote. Guests love its original and authentic ambiance. As the hotel is relatively small and intimate, you get to know the staff after a day or two. Guests admire its antique décor and the different furnishings in each room too.

Guests on the whole find the hotel well-maintained. The pool and the rooms are kept clean and tidy.

If getting connected is important, you should have few issues here. Guests find that the Wi-Fi connection is quick and reliable.

The hotel is right on a main road and the level of noise seems to vary according to different guests or perhaps different rooms. A back room is considered, however, to be the best bet to avoid it. It is not just the location which keeps guests awake. Some comment that they can hear other people in the corridors or rooms as if they were in the same room. There seems to be some work needed on the soundproofing in general.

You could find communication with the staff a little bit tricky here as they speak little English. For some guests this is just a small hurdle to overcome, however, some find the staff to be pretty unfriendly and indifferent. Maybe this is just a consequence of the language barrier.

A few guests are disappointed with the breakfast. The standard isn't great and there isn't a lot of variety or even a lot of it at all. It is usually a western type breakfast, however, some guests are pleased to have been served more typical Asiatic food on request.
