“De Cafe & Rest House distinguishes itself with a prime location in Ipoh's old town, setting guests within easy reach of the area's culinary scene and attractions like Concubine Lane. The combination of a ground-floor cafe serving European-style coffee and accommodating staff adds considerable value.
