Hotels in Ipoh

Are you planning a vacation to your neighbor country, Malaysia? So, don't miss out on a trip to tourist attractions in Ipoh!

The name Ipoh is indeed less famous than Kuala Lumpur, Penang, or Langkawi. But among backpackers, Ipoh is one of the must-visit destinations.

Ipoh is the capital of Perak Darul Ridzuan, a country in the northern part of peninsular Malaysia. From Kuala Lumpur, it can be reached by land by train for two hours or by car for 2-3 hours.

This city is synonymous with white coffee because the Old Town White Coffee brand was born here. In addition, Ipoh is also known as a city with a harmonious blend of British colonial nuances and traditional Malay buildings, murals in several corners of the city, museums, and unspoiled rural areas. This is because Ipoh was a tin mining center during the colonial period.

Ipoh also has a river called the Kinta River which divides its historic center into two parts, namely Kota Tua and Kota Baru. In the past, Ipoh was just a small village. However, since the British colonial rule in Perak in 1877, Ipoh has transformed into a city marked by the arrival of Chinese citizens from Penang with the aim of trying their luck.

This is what makes Ipoh have many historical sights that can be visited by tourists. If you are planning to come to Malaysia and spend some nights in Ipoh, here are some Ipoh Hotels recommendations!
