The presence of both adult and children's pools makes it a recommended stay for families with children.

Parking
The Octagon Ipoh offers a convenient amenity by providing a resident's parking space, which includes the bonus of a washing machine. However, the overall parking experience has some challenges. Guests often mentioned that the car parking area can be confusing and that the narrow and steep access roads require careful driving. Particularly for larger vehicles like SUVs, the parking spaces are quite small and adept driving skills are necessary to navigate through the turnaround parking spaces.

The parking arrangement spans up to the 7th floor, which some guests find tricky and even intimidating to reach due to the steep climb and narrow turns. Additionally, while there is direct access to the lift lobby from the parking space, some have noted it can be quiet and would benefit from enhanced security measures.

Despite these issues, check-in generally seems to go smoothly and the presence of a single allocated parking slot per unit ensures guests have a designated spot. Although the parking infrastructure might not be the most user-friendly, it does offer a secure place for vehicles, adding to the overall package that includes clean and comfortable rooms equipped with Netflix for entertainment.
