M Boutique Hotel in Ipoh

I researched a lot of hotels in Ipoh. Most hotels are spread out around the Ipoh “downtown”.

If you’re arriving on a bus from KL, the bus terminal Amanjaya is 9km away. 20 mins on the local bus will take you to Terminal Kidd and it’s a 15 mins walk to M Boutique. I wouldn’t suggest this option if you have a lot of suitcases as the walk is on the main roads with cars and truck zipping past.

Location is surrounded by industrial and car dealerships, but once arrived you’re surprised! They live up to their name - Boutique! They have been in that location for 13 years.

Staff are friendly and helpful! Room (single room with no windows) was clean and comfortable and provided the amenities after a long day on the bus. And the hotel - SMELLED nice. Like a high end hotel.

It was a nice treat if you’re a solo traveler looking for comfort on a budget. I tried to extend an extra night, however Trip were only showing double and twin rooms - out of my budget for a solo traveler.
Asking at reception if the single room was available, they checked and I paid directly to hotel for a 2nd night. Your loss Trip!

Hotel amenities were great. Hot shower, WiFi and air conditioning working.

It’s a 10-15 min walk to the old city. When I arrived around 4 PM, a lot of things are already closed and quiet.

Walking around in the dark back to the hotel was a little uneasy, but you can easily just arrange a car to GRAB.

Highly recommended!

A very cool and comfortable hotel with a great design. It's small but exquisite, and even features a wet/dry separation in the bathroom, which is a nice touch. A bit of a shame I didn't take many photos.

The room was around 10-15 square meters. The twin beds were basically pushed together, but despite the small space, it still had a welcome card, a mini-fridge, and a small cabinet – everything you need, which is quite impressive. The only minor drawback was the lack of mosquito repellent; my friend's room had mosquitoes, and they got bitten.

We really liked this hotel a lot. On the groundfloor of the hotel there are shops, 2 restaurants, very convinient. There is a 10% discount for guest if you will eat there. Everyday cleaning, welcoming letter, staff was very friendly. Hotel has laundry room, gym. Cool design.
We Highly recommend it.

Overall a good experience. It’s located away from the hustle and bustle of the town, which makes it quiet, though it is a bit of a drive to get anywhere. Just be careful at night as the street lighting outside the hotel is quite poor.

All is good, location is good, just could not make payment online need to pay at hotel needed to be improve.

The lobby is nicely decorated with Christmas trees 🌲 and live the ambience. There is only 1 washing machine and dryer so we need to wait for long time. During the stay, we experienced blackout and staff did not bother go around and explain to us. There are eateries beside the hotel and a little far from main area but generally ok. There is gym but air con was not switch on and hot

Had a wonderful stay at the hotel. Comfortable, and well- maintained. Spacious King Suites room, cold air-conditioning ❤️

Wonderful stay, staff are helpful, lovely place and taste restaurants in hotel.

The common and room interior design, decorations and furnishings are artsy. You will be drawn to snap a lot of photos.
It's location is about 15 minutes walk or less than 5 minutes drive to the old town area. There are 2 nearby kopitiams selling delicious local food and good Ipoh white coffee. You can have a good breakfast there to start the day.
Hotel staff were nice and always smiling.
Stayed in the hotel in December 2025.

Great customer services by provided a efficiently solutions and near by town area.
Wonderful room designed
