The property informed that road access charge will be implemented at Genting Highlands. All visitors entering the designated areas will be required to pay the applicable road charges.
Genting Malaysia Berhad would like to confirm that there will be charges for vehicles entering Jalan Genting Highlands at a date to be announced. More information will follow once details are ready on this private road charge (Caj Jalan Persendirian).
The private road charge is necessary due to the steep and escalating costs of maintaining the 24-km private road and its slopes which have been borne solely by us since the 1960s. Privately built by Genting Malaysia on difficult and mountainous terrain, Jalan Genting Highlands provides safe access to Resorts World Genting as well as mountainside destinations other than those of Genting Malaysia.
Heavy usage on Jalan Genting Highlands have caused a tremendous amount of wear and tear, and requires constant maintenance to ensure the safety of the road users. On the “user pays” principle, the private road charge is the most sustainable path to defray the cost of upkeep, repairs, maintenance and other unforeseen incidents. This is to ensure the road continues to be safe for all users, and provide access to the entire Genting Highlands community, businesses, millions of tourists and members of the public from all over the country.
This is a private initiative on a private road on private land. Genting Malaysia takes the responsibility of maintaining the safety of both the roads and the slopes seriously. Working on mountainous terrain is challenging, hazardous and expensive, but it is essential to ensure the safety of the road and the slopes for continuous improvement for all users. Genting Malaysia also employs teams stationed at mid-hill and hilltop on standby 24/7 for any contingencies with trained emergency response teams in case of mishaps and accidents.

Review summary

Powered by OpenAI

The hotel's prime location near Genting Highlands Theme Park and First World Plaza impressed guests who found it convenient to explore. Rooms were described as clean, spacious, and comfortable with stunning views. The staff received high praise for their friendly and accommodating service. Guests found the hotel to be of excellent value for money due to its convenient location.

Short check-in delays due to staff shortage, but guests had a cozy and clean room. Despite some negative reviews about AC and hot water issues, positive reviews outweighed them.

    “Convenient Location, but Not Our Preferred Choice”

    My honest review: First World Hotel, Genting Highlands Pros: 1 ) Great location. Very convenient, especially after a concert .. no need to rush back down. 2) Breakfast was delicious with a wide variety of food options. We were fully satisfied! 3) Easy and smooth check-out process. 4) Plenty of parking lots available. Cons: 1) If you book through third-party websites like Agoda, Traveloka, Trip.com, Booking.com, etc. (not directly from the hotel website), be prepared for a very long check-in process. We had to queue for about 1 hour and 30 minutes. The check-in was extremely slow and a big waste of time. 2) Breakfast is not served at the same hotel. You’ll need to take a free shuttle to Highland Hotel or Grand Hotel. However, the shuttle only arrives every 15 minutes, and you'll have to queue again. We waited nearly an hour just to board. So please plan your breakfast timing carefully. 3) The toilet and shower area in the Standard Room is very cramped. It’s uncomfortable to even move around or undress properly. 4) No flat rate, special rate, or free parking for hotel guests. We were charged RM17.00 upon exiting. We parked at Basement B6.. the lift area had a strong urine smell, which was quite unpleasant. Some parking levels felt unsafe due to broken or non-functioning lights. 5) No iron provided in the room. If you need to iron your clothes, you must go to the shared ironing rooms available on levels 11, 22, and a few others.. kindly ask the hotel staff for exact locations. 6) Standard Room lacks basic amenities such as shower caps, toothbrushes, and toothpaste.

    “I AM NOT HAPPY”

    I am not too picky, some hotel have pro n cons.. i dont like to complaints a lot because i am not that kind of person who complaints all times... I understand some hotel cant fullfill every guests mood. I never wrote teribble things if i face with bad hotel service because i understand hotels also have limitations to fullfill their customer needs. But this time i cannot accept because i experienced bad customer service and its not only happened to me, but with others..during our stay If you can provide 7000++ rooms, you must already plan to provide 7000 stories and needs of your guest. We are stuck for hours for checkin only to get a BASIC room that we pay for rm300++ room (budget hotels rooms are better than this) ARRIVE EARLY BUT CHECK IN LATE AT 5PM BECAUSE HOTEL SYSTEM. Arrive hotel 2.45pm after friday prayer at gohtong mosque, but to queue because the HOTEL SYSTEM IS NOT LIASON WITH ONLINE BOOKINGS.. imagine how many people from Agoda and other online apps stuck and queue for hours to reregister and 5pm only get the room. Had to skip a few ittenary at theme park etc because late already and exhauested letih to queue more than one hour with bags, with chaos of people, with long line. Without manager to monitor the other people especialy from mainland also cut cut and cut the queue.. ( These mainland also stress have to do by themeselves, also a lot Indonesian guest really confused why hv to do this then this just to reregister everything ). Hotel in charge only one.. not to blame because he is alone deal with all of us..where the manager? Why manager not act fast at least do something lahh.. only one person to deal with all. Other stafs at counter never feel empaty with people queue for hours..but i understand they have their role, but where are the manager? He/she should doing something when look chaotic panaroma at hotel lobby I NEVER FOUND WHERE THE DINING HALL FOR BREAKFAST. I PAY BUT I LOST SOMEWHERE. WE HAVE TO PANDAI PANDAI LAH IF WANT TO FIND WHERE TO EAT.. Stay in first world searching for food factory at 8am but closed . Have to go down ask reception where to eat. Reception told to go to upstair.. ( that we had looking around almost an hour) Luckily another hotel guest told us to go to the next building, take shuttle go to highland hotel for breakfast. People jam at shuttle stand almost 50 people..at 9am. No shuttle vehicle come. At last give up because already 9am. Need to buy food at first world. Because no time to go to next building because checkout 11am cannot made it on time.. not have my breakfast even i already pay for it. I thought if i set the breakfast, so i don need to go elsewhere and can save time. If i know i have to go to other building for breakfast, i will not buy the breakfast.. i am at first world hotel, why i must enter other hotel ( hotel highland)? What if highland hotel f&b not liason with this first world guest . Jauh wehh mcm bola ke sana ke sini.nk breakfast saja pun dh complicated. I DONT LIKE CLEANER RANG THE DOOR LIKE WANT TO CHASE US OUT FASTER. Then 10.45 cleaner rang door . Such a nighmare stay. Simply to say..this hotel is not guest oriented... I never recomanded to anybody, but if you like to feel stress, tired and abandon guest..come here and feel the experiences

    “Unpleasant experience ”

    The location of the hotel is excellent, so we chose to stay here for the second time. We got a queue number for check-in around 3:30 PM, but only managed to check in at 9:24 PM. We were very tired and went straight to the room, but the room was dirty, smelled bad, and hadn’t been cleaned. We had to call and ask housekeeping to come and clean it. Because of the damp and moldy smell from the wet carpet it was extremely uncomfortable to sleep in the room. The next day, housekeeping came but didn’t leave any towels, so we had to call again to request them. On the third day, before going out, we hung the “Make Up Room” sign on the door, but the room still wasn’t cleaned when we returned. We were already exhausted that night, so we didn’t call again. Rusty water was coming out from the basin faucet, so we had to use bottled mineral water just to brush our teeth and wash our face. The water from the hotel’s water dispenser had a strong chlorine smell, so we ended up buying our own drinking water. Breakfast was arranged at another hotel— the food was good, but it took about 20 minutes to walk there. For all three nights of our stay, we had to sleep in a room with a strong damp smell coming from the wet carpet The location is really good, but after this experience, we don’t want to stay at this hotel again.

    “Overall good”

    As per title, overall it's good. Value for money, and well-situated for shopping and dining. Only area like to flag was the towels and hangers. There was one particular day after the change of towels, I realised there was a black spot on the towel. Feels like it was not cleaned properly. As for the clothes hangers, it seems like it has not been used for some time, so some dust was collected on it as well.

    “Excellent Location to attend concerts at Genting Arena of Stars”

    I enjoyed my stay at Genting First World Resort because it's clean but there's no amenities in the hotel room ie kettle or tea/coffee. If you're going to stay here, you probably have to bring your own kettle. Otherwise, at the bottom of the hotel and nearby, there are lots of restaurants and cafes and chan char teng. I enjoyed the food at the chan char teng (HK style diners). Checking-in was a bit of a nightmare as there was huge crowds of people. (I hate crowds!). I opted for the staff assisted check-in as the self-check-in kiosks often didn't really work due to poor wifi connectivity. My friend and I opted to grab coffee while waiting for our number for the staff assisted check-in. Thank goodness for a Starbucks nearby! :D Going to the Arena of Stars to watch the Kitaro concert was fairly a breeze. I loved it!! I purchased a souvenir CD and queued to get the CD signed by the musician Kitaro. Woo hoo!! so stoked about that! Check-out was easy and just drop off the keys in the self-service kiosk.
