The hotel’s all day dining restaurant, sTREATs, offers a variety of scrumptious local and international dishes. True to the local culture, sTREATs’ decor is inspired by Ipoh’s bustling night markets and Kopitiams – Malaysia’s traditional coffee shops. The hotel offers four modern and well-equipped function rooms to accommodate business guests and meeting delegates visiting the city.
