Excellent”
The hotel in itself is great, clean and the room are nice. The neighborhood around is very lively, there's a lot of restaurant choices. BUT you are not in Johor Bahru, you will be in Skudai, which means that you have to take a bus (2,50 RM and 45min to JB center) or a Grab/Taxi (20RM for a Grab around 25/30RM for a cab, it will take around 35min). We recommend it if you don't mind being out of town, if you want to stay in Johor Bahru you better book another accomodation.

Above and Beyond ”
We were staying at The Square Hotel for 3 Days and 2 Nights. Excellent Customer Service Staffs are Super Friendly Area Knowledge - Excellent Easy to Communicate Staffs are Always with a Smile and Seriously very Welcoming Room is 101% Worth The Amount 101% Clean 24/7 Smells Nice Room was Spacious and the Beds, especially the Toilet was AWESOME. (We Booked the 2 King Bedded Room) Amenities was Bigger then the ones we get in Most of the Hotels. There are Few Eatery Outlets and Bars Nearby which is quite Convenient but if you wanna Shop or Wanna get more varieties on Food and Shopping, Sutera Mall is Just few mins away, via Grab was just Rm5. The whole area is Still new so nothing much to expect anything nearby. But my Main Review for the Hotel and the Staffs are HIGHLY RECOMMENDED AWESOME AND FRIENDLY STAFFS

clean boutique hotel (window room noisy at night)”
another excellent small, clean no frills boutique hotels. However such shoplot-hotel should really review their pricing policy. Room with window at second storey facing a road/pub/club playing music to late night should be cheaper compared to a cabin ( no window) room. This hotel did its best using 2 layer of glasses for windows but my room was still too noisy for a comfort sleep. I cant sleep with the club blastinh bass. So I decided to go Lan Kwai Fong for a drink. I would pay more for cabin room, which ran out when I booked. Maybe square hotel should give complimentary drink voucher for drink in lan kwai fong for guests in a window room. Win win win solution.

Very good and satisfied”
I choose this hotel for a night because it is near to the UTM Skudai. They can provide me iron because i need to iron my clothes before registration on the next day. Then they also help me to drop my luggage for few hours because i went to UTM for registration. The room and facilities are very good. I love staying there. However, it may difficult for muslim because there only McD and Marrybrown near the hotel. No muslim restaurant around there. But you can get GrabCar to go somewhere. Overall i will give 5/5 stars for this hotel.

Excellent location at Skudai”
Perfect location with eateries around you within walking distance, Tasek Central Mall is just a stone throw away in front of the hotel. Staff was very helpful and helped me with photostatting my urgent document for me. Room sound proofing is not bad as the room walls are brick walls. Not so bad compared to other hotels in a shoplot setting. Recommended hotel if you are staying at Skudai.

Only the receptionist not so friend and a bit noise from bar at same row with this hotel. Overall so satisfy compare with same class of hotel.

Budget stay in great location”
Opposite the hotel is a local shopping centre that sells cheap stuff. The diagonally opposite coffeeshop has a variety of stalls. My family enjoyed the chinese stall. The dishes were nice and cheap. There is wifi too. The downside is that the Queen-bedded room is too small. Then the rooms on each floor with a few turns (like a maze) may pose dangers in time of emergency evacuate. It is best to get a family room of two queen beds if you can stretch your budget. I should have taken two family rooms. But best to avoid connecting room as you may not know if any family has baby who may cry or any loud TV volumn. Another downside is the possible noise from the nearby KTV. If there is an event taking place, it may affect your sleep. One of the reviewers has mentioned that. And a staff said it was challenging on the previous night (24 Dec) before our arrival. We stayed on the 25 Dec with no events, so we were spared of the noise. Overall is good.

Parking might be a bit hard to find

Clean, Comfortable and Convenient”
When we reached the hotel, we were quite surprised how nice the building looks. We got the room at a good price and in the room, it's clean, not spacious but yet we don't feel cramped are all. Everything is very comfortable and the staffs are very friendly. The only problem, and a major one, is that the hotel is near to some pub and the noise never ends until 3am. WiFi is pretty ok, but did went down for a few hours on our send night there. As for location, it is very convenient for shopping and some nice food. Overall, a pleasant stay and we'll be back, but with ear muffs.

Clean, safe and convenient”
Its in the small town of Skudai in JB. Close to many eating places and shops. Functional and clean and staff are friendly. Room is quite small so dont bring BIG luggage bags. If you prefer to use a bar of soap instead of shower gel, bring your OWN. Excellent for 1-3 nights (short) stays and for singles couples . The free coffee, tea and biscuits adds a nice touch to your stay

Little but exquisite hotel. Value for money too. ”
It was a pleasant stay at The Square Hotel, it’s small but exquisite in everywhere such as design and other details like the amenities provided. WiFi speed is fast and stable too (30+mbps tested), other than that the location is good and in the middle of JB town and Kulai area.

Small room big prices”
The room was just really small, enough for one human, with almost little space to walk in. The hotel was very clean though, I would have preferred a closet to store my clothes in. If you're claustrophobic, not recommended. The area was kinda good, it had good shops around. Like pharmacies, eateries, malls. But very far from Johor Bahru.

Perfect!”
This hotel was almost perfect with a cleanliness room and nice location. Just only one thing, they should educate the staff especially for the front desk how to serve the customer. Please teach her how to smile and talk properly. Other than this, this hotel was perfect with the price of rm70+ for queen bed room

5 star treatment”
This is my go to hotel if I go to Johor. It is near the famous fried durian. It's 20mins drive from JB and Woodlands, so the location is pretty spot on.

Recommended! ”
The hotel is quite new. Had a really comfortable stay in the hotel. It was clean, modern and furnished. Although the room is abit small but it is really cozy and has basic necessities such as hair dryer, dental kit and etc. Will definitely come back here to stay again in the future as it’s really for money. It is NOT like other cheap boutique hotel in Malaysia. It is abit far away from JBCC but it would be great if you have your own vehicle here. The hotel is easy to locate and parking is easy too. Good neighbourhood with many eatry. There’s a few bar within that area too.
