Overview of Mega View Hotel
Mega View Hotel sits on Jalan Besar in the heart of Kuantan City, Pahang, positioned directly along the Kuantan River. The property is built around this riverside setting: it markets a run of "river view" rooms that look out over the water, a design choice that sets it apart from most of the inland business hotels clustered around the same city-centre block. The hotel spans nine floors and holds 94 guest rooms in total, a mid-sized footprint that keeps it easy to navigate on foot from lift lobby to breakfast room without feeling like a sprawling convention property.
On Traveloka, Mega View Hotel currently carries an overall guest score of 8.6 out of 10 ("Very Good") built from 864 reviews, with travellers frequently calling out the hotel's strategic location near Kuantan's town centre and the river views from selected rooms as reasons they'd return. The property is classified as a 3-star hotel, which lines up with what it actually offers: comfortable, well-equipped rooms and a compact set of business and dining facilities, rather than a resort-style amenity stack. For anyone comparing Kuantan city hotels, that combination of a walkable downtown address, a river-facing outlook, and a nearly-900-review track record is the property's clearest point of difference.
Room/Unit Types at Mega View Hotel
Mega View Hotel's own room ladder runs from a compact double up to a family-sized premier suite. The tiers below are listed from the entry-level option upward, so travellers can see exactly where a given room type sits before booking.
Studio Double
The entry-level category at Mega View Hotel, configured with a double bed and designed for solo travellers or couples who want a straightforward, no-frills base in the city centre. Rooms in this tier come with the property's standard in-room set: air conditioning, a desk, cable TV, and a minibar, with complimentary Wi-Fi and LAN internet access.
Deluxe Twin
A twin-bed step up from the Studio Double, aimed at friends or colleagues travelling together who each want their own bed rather than sharing. Like the rest of the property's rooms, it includes a functional workspace and the hotel's standard plush bedding.
Deluxe Double
The double-bed equivalent of the Deluxe Twin, with the same in-room amenity set — desk, minibar, cable TV, complimentary Wi-Fi — in a double-bed configuration for couples who prefer one larger bed over two singles.
Executive Deluxe Twin
A twin-configuration room positioned above the standard Deluxe tiers, intended for guests who want extra space or an upgraded outlook (including, where available, the hotel's river-facing rooms) while still travelling as a pair.
Family Premier
Sized and laid out for family stays, this tier is the hotel's answer to guests travelling with children or in a small group who need more room than a standard double or twin can offer.
Executive Premier
The top tier in Mega View Hotel's room ladder, combining the property's most spacious layout with its upgraded finishing. Guests booking this category can expect the same core amenities as every other room — air conditioning, cable TV, minibar, desk, and free Wi-Fi — presented in the hotel's largest and most premium configuration.
Because Traveloka's own listing does not break out square-metre sizing or exact bed counts per category, travellers with specific space or bedding requirements should confirm the exact layout for their chosen room type at the time of booking or directly with the hotel.
Facilities and Amenities
Mega View Hotel's facility list is built around business and short-stay convenience rather than a resort-style leisure package. Public-area amenities confirmed on the property's Traveloka listing include:
- Front desk and security: a 24-hour front desk and 24-hour security presence
- Dining: an on-site restaurant, a coffee shop, and separate breakfast and lunch restaurant service
- Business support: business facilities and meeting facilities for guests attending events or conducting work while travelling
- Guest services: concierge service, room service, luggage storage, and a safety deposit box at the front desk
- Practical essentials: air conditioning throughout, an elevator serving all nine floors, on-site parking, and property-wide WiFi
In-room, Mega View Hotel's listing confirms cable TV, a desk-based workspace, a minibar, and a shower in its standard rooms, alongside complimentary Wi-Fi and LAN internet access and the hotel's plush bedding. The property's own site also lists an on-site restaurant and café as part of its dining program (covered in more detail below). For anything not explicitly listed here — such as fitness or spa facilities — travellers should check the current facility list on the booking page, since Traveloka's structured listing data does not confirm those amenities for this specific property.
Location and Getting There
Mega View Hotel is located at Lot 567, Jalan Besar, in Kuantan City, giving it a central, walkable position in Pahang's state capital. The address places it within Kuantan's core commercial district, close to landmarks such as Kuantan Tower and the State Mosque, along with a range of dining options that guests can reach on foot rather than needing a taxi for every meal. Its riverside position also means several rooms look directly over the Kuantan River rather than onto neighbouring buildings, which guests frequently mention as a highlight in their reviews.
For travellers coming from outside Pahang, Kuantan is served by its own airport with domestic connections, and travellers can check flight options and book a flight to Kuantan on Traveloka before arranging onward transport into the city centre, where Mega View Hotel's Jalan Besar address is a short drive from the terminal. Once in town, the hotel's central location means most of Kuantan's riverside promenade, government offices, and shopping streets are within easy reach without needing a car for the whole stay.
Dining at Mega View Hotel
Mega View Hotel operates two named on-site outlets, according to the property's own website: Aura Restaurant and MiCasa Café by the River. The riverside café name reflects the hotel's water-facing position, and between the two outlets the property covers breakfast, lunch, and café-style service without guests needing to leave the building. Traveloka's own listing separately confirms breakfast and lunch restaurant service and a general on-site restaurant and room service, consistent with what the hotel's official channels describe.
Beyond the hotel itself, Mega View Hotel's Jalan Besar location puts a wide spread of Kuantan's town-centre dining scene within walking distance, from casual local eateries to riverside food spots. Guests who want to look further afield — for river cruises, nature trips, or day tours around Pahang — can also browse activities and things to do near Kuantan on Traveloka to plan a full itinerary around the stay.
Why Stay at Mega View Hotel
Mega View Hotel's core appeal is straightforward: a centrally located, river-facing hotel in Kuantan with a strong guest-review track record (8.6/10 across 864 reviews) and a room ladder that scales from a simple studio double up to a family-sized premier suite. It suits business travellers who need meeting facilities and a 24-hour front desk close to Kuantan's commercial district, as well as leisure travellers who want a walkable base near the river, Kuantan Tower, and the State Mosque without booking a resort further out of town.
Travellers weighing it against other Kuantan city-centre properties can compare other hotels in Kuantan and across Malaysia on Traveloka to see how Mega View Hotel's room types, facilities, and review score stack up before deciding.
Tips for Booking Mega View Hotel on Traveloka
A few practical pointers for booking this property:
- Check in from 3:00 PM and check out before 12:00 PM — plan arrival and departure times around this window to avoid early-arrival waiting.
- If a river view matters to you, confirm which room category includes it at the time of booking, since not every tier is guaranteed a water-facing outlook.
- Business travellers attending meetings nearby should ask about the hotel's meeting facilities directly if the trip involves hosting rather than just attending.
- Because on-site parking is available, self-driving guests should confirm space availability for their travel dates, particularly during Kuantan's busier periods.
- Expect a modest deposit or incidental hold at check-in, as is standard practice for hotels in this category — confirm the current policy with the property or on the booking page rather than assuming a fixed amount.
