Super clean guesthouse conveniently located in Tanah Rata. We really enjoyed our stay: the staff are incredibly kind, the other guests were fun to hang out with when we felt like it and the tours organised (through Cameron Secrets) are awesome! Glad we chose this guesthouse for our trip to the Cameron Highlands and would love to go again!

Great, clean, friendly guesthouse

Very comfortable , cozy and clean room. Staff are friendly. Tucked away from the busy street, walking distance to the shops and food.  Hair dryer (shared) is provided. Cons: walls are thin and I can hear conversations of people outside the room/in the common area. Once, there were people barging into my room at 2am because they mistook my room as theirs, so I would advice guests to lock their room when you go to bed.

Cozy and clean space

The guest house is a very good place to stay if you are travelling. Everyone speaks English and the staff is pro-actively recommending places. For example, upon arrival we were recommended the hike with Mr Jason and some places to dine at. The hike itself was with a group of 10 people at most, which made it perfect in terms of walking phase and interactivity. Jason told us about the Cameron Highlands and about the mossy forest. If you are considering to have a great time, I'd definitely recommend to follow te tour with Jason.

Tour with Jason was beyond expectations

I had such a lovely stay at Fathers Guesthouse. Uncle and Auntie Ida who work there are always so helpful and kind. Whatever problems I had, I could always go to them! Also they have very fun tours to provide!

Lovely stay in Cameron Highlands

Fathers Gueshouse is such a friendly and welcoming place, I would definitely stay there again the next time I am in Cameron Highlands. It was clean, comfortable and very well located, just off the main road. The reception staff were super nice.

A very welcoming gueasthouse in the heart of Tanah Rata

We had a fantastic stay at Fathers guesthouse. All the staff were very friendly and gave us great advice about the local area and helped us book one of the best tours we have ever done with Jason at Cameron Secrets Travel, a 6 hour hike through the cloud forest and to a tea plantation. They have tea and coffee available. The location is very central but also quiet. There was a fan in the room which worked very well. We would definitely stay again if we came back to the Cameron Highlands.

Excellent base for exploring Cameron Highlands

I arrived in the late afternoon on a Friday and was welcomed by Mr Gandhi. There's a nice place to park my motorcycle safely. 

I stayed in a dormitory - was hoping to have a single room, but i took too long to book and booked too late. Nevertheless, the room was comfortable, the mattress firm, clean and the beddings also clean: There was a single 'firmish' pillow and pillow case. thick blanket. I was also given a towel.

There are no lockers that I was told of, so it's always prudent to have a lockable bag when in a dormitory for one's own peace of mind.

The shared shower/toilet was spacious and the heater was good. Just need to switch it on outside before entering. 

The overall common areas were very welcoming, cosy and st up for small groups of people to have conversations. Kudos! 

These is also a hose outside with a brush for anyone who returns with muddy shoes from a trek to wash and clean up. Thank you for that thoughtfulness! I appreciate small things like this.

Gerard, you are a most hospitable and engaging owner host! I thoroughly enjoyed our conversations. I look forward to chatting with you again the next time I visit Camerons!

Thank you for a most enjoyable stay!

Brilliant! Just brilliant!

We stayed here for 3 nights. It is the best place to stay in Tanah Rata, Cameron Highlands. The staff are extremely helpful and knowledgable. The hotel is very clean and comfortable.
On our first day all tours were already fully booked because of school holiday. The staff advised us to do a beautiful and adventurous jungle trek on our own.
On our second day we went on a group hiking tour with Jason, which you can book at the hotel. It was absolutely amazing! Jason told us everything about the Malaysian nature and conservation. After an adventurous trek through the jungle, we arrived at the gorgeous Cameron Highlands tea garden, where Jason explained the history about tea and tea production. We highly recommend Father's Guesthouse and Jason's tour!

Best place to stay in Cameron Highlands, amazing tour with Jason!

Arrived in Cameron Highlands with a problem with previous booking. Owner Gerard welcomed us to the guesthouse with open arms along with his pleasant and friendly reception staff. The room was clean, and we were given fresh bed sheets and towel on arrival. Gerard was very informative and helped me plan my onward trip to Penang. Kind and trustworthy staff which made me feel very safe as a lone traveler. I also booked a trekking tour with the hotel with tour guide called Jason. He has exceptional knowledge of Malaysia and the environment in the Cameron highlands. I could not recommend him more. If or when I return I will be sure to find Gerald’s team and Jason. Thank you very much!!! 

Ps. free coffee and tea

Highly recommend

Do not come here if you can't control your behaviour or your families.

Check in and check out procedure are super easy.

At the room rates they offered, this guesthouse is the best staying i ever had around Tanah Rata. Entire premise are so clean and cozy. I like how they prepared several outdoor sitting places, you get to embodied serenity of Cameron fresh air.

Coffee, tea, hot water are unlimited at ground floor pantry. Free WIFI too. Please check with them before staying and complaining no cooking could be done.

Some room gets private toilet, some uses shared ones. If you use shared one, please be clean and respect cleanliness.

Tucked quietly within Jalan Mentigi, 3minute walk from Cameron Fair mall, i would prefer this type of staying anytime over main street. It is just too busy and noisy out there beating the purpose of coming over Cameron Highland.

Parking lot could be limited, i do not recommend big group driving in convoy style. Instead, do car pooling.

If you know Cameron traffic load on typical weekend/long weekend, driving out anywhere is a nightmare. Hence, walking out for food, other attraction is just nice from this spot. Personally, i even walked to Brinchang from Tanah Rata so i could enjoy more of the climate.

The only upsetting matter during my stay are the absolute inconsiderate nuisances from other guests. The premise indoor is absolutely NO SMOKING entirely yet i find all of them manage to cause all the below issue:
-Kid shouting loud before 7am and after 10pm
-Smoking cigarette inside
-Closing door loudly
-Talking loud at night after 11pm
There was even a kid shouting for parent/uncle from ground floor to 2nd floor after 12am that did not stop after i telling the kid to keep quiet.
That was ridiculous.

I don't wish to be racist, but ALL the above were only cause from one specific race. Will not mention here.

Please learn to respect other guests, place is an amazing place to stay. The staff will not have people 24/7 around to teach you basic respect around the premise.

As i mentioned earlier, the best staying in Tanah Rata i ever had.
