Guest Reviews
- Lesley (6/5): Hotel not as appears on photos - Possibly the photos of twin pines aren't recent. We received a friendly welcome, but the rooms are in dire need of refurbishment.

- Verified traveler (8/5): - Easy to find location

- Verified traveler (10/5): - Posizione ottima. Un semplice e spartano hotel malesiano. Maggiore pulizia e manutenzione nei servizi igienici.
- Jennifer (6/5): Bare necessities - Good for one night!
Plus: firm pillow, attached bathroom, clothes hanger
Minus: only 1 socket point and it's 3m from the bed at a height of 1.5m high
The only mirror is in the bathroom - makeup standing on a cold wet floor :(
Lack of cool water dispenser in the lobby
Thin walls
- Verified traveler (6/5): - Location is very strategic, near to all amenities.
- Hugo (10/5): Good place to stay. - It's a very nice place with a lovely garden and patio area. The walls between rooms are a bit thin, you might here your neighbors snoring. Wi-Fi works only in the front rooms and the patio area.

- Verified traveler (4/5): My experience at hotel. - Problem faced regarding room size, decorations and the staff was not aware regarding my visit. They asked where is confirmation email from me where in I showed my trip details to convince them booking.
My wife complaint to change room and bedsheets when I asked to change room they replied they are already booked and this is final room.

- Elizabeth (10/5): Great but basic - Fantastic staff, super friendly. Great location within Tanah Rata. Hot shower was fantastic, would recommend staying here.
- Gian (4/5): Cordialità in un contesto modesto - Posizione dell'hotel comoda poiché posizionato in una traversa della via principale, cordialità e disponibilità del proprietario per quanto riguarda i tour.
Totale mancanza di pulizia con lenzuola macchiate e trapuntina impolverata oltremodo, salviette macchiate e dall'odore sgradevole, wc tutto in uno con doccia a pochi centimetri da wc e lavandino.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Twin bed :-) - Très bien situé, très légèrement à l'écart de l'hyper centre (évite le bruit en soirée), la chambre offre un confort en adéquation avec le prix. Bonne qualité de la prestation et ambiance général très sympathique. Petit coin jardin avec des tables pour se poser très appréciables et personnel très serviable et sympathique.
- faiz (10/5): - homestay yg okay untuk keluarga dan x suka pakai tangga
- Hannah (10/5): - My boyfriend and I planned to stay for 1 night and the staff were incredibly welcoming and the garden beautiful - we ended up staying for an extra 3 nights!
Breakfast was great value and close to everything convenient.
You can hear the nature from your room :)
Would recommend definitely and would stay at Twin Pines again in a heart beat!
- Verified traveler (6/5): good for short stay - Very nice garden, friendly and helpful staff. Unfortunately the room and the towels also bed sheet was not so clean and smells coz of high humidity.
- Verified traveler (8/5): A friendly budget accommodation - Twin pines gave us a great deal. The garden is beautiful and peaceful, despite the neighbouring noises. The location is much better than staying on the main road, everything in town is still walking distance. The staff are really friendly and the hostel has a great vibe. Room is a budget room so don't expect it to be awesome but it was ok and clean enough. The shower was surprisingly strong and hot. Really nice.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Decent room for the price - Lovely garden room a bit noisy due to fine wall but overall the outside make it up. Hot and powerful shower nice staff. Lovely place very peaceful. I would go back.
- shila (6/5): Very noisy & cannot sleep well - If stay for one day emergency can take this room.. If really u want enjoyed with ur love one this is unsuitable.. No privacy
- Jaya (6/5): Nice hotel close to shops and eatery. - Value for money. Quiet and peaceful. Close to sundry shops and eatery.
- Verified traveler (2/5): - the most dirty hotel
- Verified traveler (4/5): Okay but few negative points... - The hotel is located in a quiet area of Tanah Rata. The owner is very nice and they have a nice and green garden!
Unfortutely the walls are very thin so you will hear everything in the evening and morning. The towels were pretty dirty eventhough they seemed to be freshly washed. The WiFi was ok but around 10 to 11 pm it didnt work which was pretty bad.
Our room was ok. Could be a bit more spacious. The toilet and shower are very close so everything will be wet after taking a shower.
All in all I would book again unless I find something cheaper ;-)
- Alejandro (10/5): Buen lugar para ahorrar y descansar - Muy buen trato con el personal, nos facilitaron información acerca del estado de los senderos y alargamos la estancia una noche más sin problemas.
- Christopher (6/5): Ok hotel - Ok hotel for the price but a bit dirty in the room and bathroom sink was leaking as tap wpuldnt turn off so the spund pf running water all night
- Verified traveler (6/5): - Very nice and quiet beautiful garden. Stayed one night. Restaurant has local and western menu.
- Verified traveler (4/5): - room dont have good facilities.
no tv.
no fan
a lot of mosquito
- Verified traveler (4/5): zental in Tanah Rata - Zimmer sind ok aber ziemlich schmutzige Bettwäsche. Wir hatten Zimmer mit Dusche und Wc. da die auf engstem Raum ist muss man Handtücher, Toilettpapier usw zuerst aufs Bett legen da sonst alles nass wird.Wasser rinnt nicht genug ab sodass man dannach auch das Zimmer am boden ziemlich nass hat. Schade weil die Lage ist super und die Leute da sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit
- Verified traveler (6/5): - The blanket is smelly, feel like not being wash for long.
- iam the victim (4/5): Didnt have good facilities - Windows glass also broke,they didnt replace the new one,let the window open,people from outside can see our expensive item like camera dslr, smartphone,laptop if we are going out and let the item on the room for batery charging etc. Bed also poor, the steel of bed look like waiting a few day to broke. Dangerous for person who have big size body i think the bed only can hold weight around 70kg only.lack of facilities,.
- Jan (8/5): OK place to stay - We really liked the easy check in and the nice and polite staff. The garde in front is really nice and it is easy to find. The room could have been in a better condition but overall would stay here again.
- Jerome (6/5): TwinP - Bon rapport qualité prix
- Slam (4/5): Relocate to nearby KRS Pines - Arrived at guest house itself,however,they dont receive any reservation for our booking of the guesthouse.They do give us room from another of their own guesthouse,KRS Pines.
- Verified traveler (6/5): Immerhin ist es billig - Für den Preis war nicht viel zu erwarten, aber wohl gefühlt haben wir uns nicht. Überall Moskitos, die Zimmer sehen aus wie eine Gefängniszelle, Nach dem duschen war alles nass im Bad, Handtücher und Laken waren eklig und muffig, Boden war dreckig.
Aber immerhin gibt es einen schönen Garten.
- tina (6/5): - Location is perfect, the Staff was very friendly and helpful. In the front is a little cute garden and a terasse with wifi. I stayed in a private double room. The bathroom was clean and simple but the room was a bit dirty, the sheets and towels didnt look clean and the furniture especially the bed were in a bad condition. But as a low budget traveler I definitely seen worse and still felt very comfortable and welcomed.
A bit annoying were the windows to the corridor. Loud and heard the people talking and no privacy
- Friederike (6/5): Cheap stay - Walls are really thin. Hotel is not the newest one but cheap and ok. Wifi in the room and in general was really bad. Owner is friendly and helpful.
- Ross (2/5): Terrible! - This is about the worst place I have ever stayed in! So bad I left after one night and didn't even care about a refund! It's a nice enough town and the tiny bathroom was reasonably clean - that's the only good things I can say! The walls were paper-thin and I was awake all night to EVERY noise ANYONE else in the hotel made. The room was tiny. It was great having my own bathroom but not hearing all the bathroom noises of my fellow guests. The sheets on my bed, although clean (I think) were heavily stained. Who knows if the blanket had ever been washed? The towel I was given was the size of a hand towel - when I asked for a larger one his reply was: 'are you Australian'?(!). I get the whole 'rustic' thing, but this place is going way too far. I'm wondering how anyone rates it above 1 star, particularly when there are better, newer, and probably as cheap options in town. A real stinker!
- Oskar (8/5): Good and cheap stay. - Everything okay.
- Kevin (6/5): Nice owner & garden / noisy in the morning - On en a pour son argent, on entend beaucoup la route qui est très passant dès tôt le matin.
Accueilli à 22h30 sans soucis, tour booké le matin même.
- Verified traveler (6/5): - Guest house pratique et fonctionnelle car bien placée. Propre mais peu confortable et salle de bain tres tres petite mais suffisante pour 2nuits dans les camerons highland.
- Fong Wai (8/5): - The air at there too fresh. good service
- Jean (2/5): Slechte kamers en te duur - Enorm slechte kamers. We hadden een triple maar het was klein en gehorig. We hebben een ander hotel gezocht. Deze kamers zijn allen geschikt voor backpackers en zwaar te duur.
- Traveller (4/5): Twin Pines Cameron (TP) - It was our first trip to the Cameron Highlands. We found this online and had quite good reviews. Apparently it is overrated. Located at a secluded area in Tanah Rata, this is a guest house not a hotel. More like a spartan guest house with minimal furnishings. Entry looks welcoming. But the rooms are 'militarily like'. Towels, bedsheets, curtains all look old and dated with stains. Broken windows, old doors and cupboards greet you. WiFi weak in rooms. Sparsely furnished with a creepy feel. More like a back packers place. Staff spoke good English though. Thats the only positive feedback. I don't usually rate rooms poorly unless they deserve it. This one certainly does !!! Eventually my fellow traveller settled for another place nearby and forgo the deposit. There are many other better hotels nearby and at similar prices too. Not too difficult to get a place in Cameron Highlands.
Will never go back TP again, ever !!!
- Adzlin (10/5): Definitely will go again - I stayed for two nights in Twin Pines with my friend. Our room is clean and there are toiletries provided. The service is great plus the owner is super friendly. Dont be afraid to ask the owner anything you want to know. There is garden at the front of the house. It is so blooming and looking fresh. While the hotel location is super easy to find as I immediately saw it when my bus passed thru the hotel. And it is very near to the bank, restaurant, supermarket etc etc. Overall, I would totally choose this hotel again next time and very recommended.
