Stayed at Eden Garden Hotel Johor Bahru - Johor Bahru, Malaysia.
Destination is abit far from the shopping centres. I was told that I could actually catch a Ferry from Tanah Merry Terminal (Singapore) straight to Eden. However, to my disappointment, this piece of info is not true.

Out of the way from the city. But very close to the 2nd link in Tuas.

Transport to and fro the hotel can be a hassle. Many taxi drivers from Johor Bahru City Centre do not know how to get there unless you have a map. The rate to the resort is RM$35. Not many places of interest near the resort and you have to call for a taxi everytime you go out.

The shuttle service were limited. They shall provide some to & fro services to JB city area. The shopping guide found in the magazine did not hightlight/recommend anything specific.

We also found that it was easy to get to JB town from here (about 45 mins ride) so it is convenient for shoppers to get some bargains in JB town.

Taking taxi to the hotel is easy. It is so near to the coast way, and it only costs us $4, so cheap! I also tried some fish cake near the coast way, that is wonderful! It is a bit chilli, but they use those kind of high class fish to make the fish cake. That makes the fish cake to be "bouncy" and "fresh"!!!

- Nearer to second link from Singapore. - However, no taxi available from second link. - Taxi from JB city [nearer to first link] cost R$25 nett. - Resort provides FOC transfer to JB City [one way only!] with minimum four going together. - good for short stay.
