We stayed at this hotel for five nights during the Chinese New year period. The rooms have been updated recently (review written in Jan 2023). The beds were comfortable, the rain showers were great, and the wifi was really fast. It is very easy to walk to the imago shopping centre which is literally the neighbouring building. The service was good too. What was not so good - no pool for the price point; traffic into the KK Times square/imago area can be quite jammed; our room smelt of old smoke when we first arrived; needing to use stairs to access the lift from the ground floor.

Booked this hotel for Marathon event at PADANG BANDARAN DBKK Kota Kinabalu.
This hotel only a stone throw away from the event that I enrolled. Oposite is famous and popular GAYA STREET. Hotel are clean and I love the Reception and Restaurant staffs. Friendly and are excellent. They have breakfast which is adequate to fill your hungry stomach. The BREAKFAST NEED IMPROVEMENT. Lacking the choices of FRUITS and Bread Rolls. They do have cakes but providing a few extra bread rolls and fruits won't harm the restaurant budget. HOWEVER THIS HOTEL I FULLY RECOMMENDED to everyone or and travellers.
This hotel toilet is also MUSLIM FRIENDLY. THE WATER SPRAY Pressure ARE STRONG. NICE.
****FRIENDLY REMINDER, this hotel charge for Parking Fees which is RM5 only during my one night stay with family.

Apartment is located right next to Imago Mall with a lot of food and retail outlets and along the Riverson Walk. Apartment is super clean and beds have thick mattress and are super comfortable. Apartment balcony has a stunning sunset view overseeing the Sutera Golf course. The host was very responsive to my family's requests including providing baby cot in the middle of night. Wonderful experience and will come back again.

Given the price, it is affordable with good space given. Although we didn't managed to wake up in time for the free breakfast, but just the thought that breakfast provided was worth it with the price paid. The toilets are huge too. So its a plus. Stayed only for one night with the husband but he and I both agree that the place is worth money. Tips: Free parking after 5pm, park at own risks but hotel will ask for details of car plate number,probably to help identify clients car if any inconvenience ever occur.

GGuest UserToujoo is tucked in a little corner of KK city center, easily accessible for tourists and locals alike. Our room was clean (room 102-studio double window), bed super comfy, bathroom is tiny (expected) but well ventilated and water pressure is good. Soundproofing is good and it's quite quiet, we didn't hear our neighbours and the storm brewing outside. The room is equipped with Bluetooth speakers, which we really liked. No TV. Plenty of electrical points to charge your devices. Also, guests can use the facilities in OPIS (between Ground floor and First floor). Great area to lounge around, make your own coffee/tea, play pool, or read. There's also a house cat (Pablo?) if you need some pet therapy. 😆 Sundays are good for ladies (free flow cocktail at the Tamu rooftop bar 5-7pm) plus the food is superb! Overall this place is highly recommended!

OOn cloud 9The hotel smells good. The room is spacious with plenty of chair to sit. They provide basic amenities. Checkin and checkout process was smooth.
The only minor is the bed is in front of the door. So it’s not comfortable to sleep.

HHatyaimanLocation is recognized in prime area esp for Gaya Street Market on Friday and Saturday night + Sunday morning market. Try local foods around this hotel e.g, 1) Yee Fung…..don’t miss Wonton Soup 2) Keng Wan Hing……Big Pau (Chinese bun) with hot coffee Actually, Atkinson Tower and Signal Hill Observatory are in walking area but both have been closed for renovation. I stayed in Single room without window…..clean, private bathroom, air condition, tv……..anyway, there was no daily housekeeping? Cos I stayed 2 nights but no one came to my room. I stayed on 3rd floor (only 3 floor…..still have a lift) and there was heavy rain on 2nd night…….big rain big sound……made my Cinemax….watching Indiana Jones….gone with the rain…..no signal at all (TV Hotel) In the summary, highly recommended for reasonable price for budget traveller upon prime location. Note for Airport Transfer From KKiA or BKI, there was no operation of Airport Bus due to Covid situation. Then, you can rake a taxi at fixed fee at 30 ringgit or grab only 10 ringgit……for sure….Grab….airport bus only 5 ringgit

NNanie Idayu MMy husband and I spent two nights here. The queen room size is suitable for family with 2 children under 10. During our stay the tv channels had problems due to the change from analogue to digital tv. We asked for help from the maintanence and he showed up...3 times but the problem unsolved (my husband was quite upset because he wanted to watch the Malaysia Cup final between JDT and Kedah... lol). We have not tried the food because breakfast was not included in my room rate. Mini bar is not provided in room. The room and bathroom are clean. The hotel provide a newspaper every morning. The location is good even for those who come without transportation...just a few minutes walk to Imago, Craft Market and KK market

RRajTheRacerAs my first trip to Kota Kinabalu, my aunt had booked a room here at this hotel as she arrived here first. Since I was coming to visit, she had requested for a bigger room and asked if they had a discount if she upgraded. Unfortunately no. So I had met up with my family a few days later late at night from another trip with friends. My first impression was this hotel was located in a dank looking mall. Furthermore, upon getting ready for bed, the sheets were gross and stained, the pillows were yellow and ants were climbing on the wall where my tiny twin sized bed was up against. I literally could not sleep as some got onto the bed sheets, mind you its almost 1am. The next morning, I found a few ants climbing on my suit case as well. Being disgusted by this, I insist we move out immediately. I had gone online and booked a nicer room at the Ming Garden. We tried to get a refund since my aunt had pre-paid in advance for the nights I was visiting. They would not do anything for us, they said if there were bugs to call room service. Honestly, I don't think they would understand this but when there are ant's, MORE will come. And what? You're gonna have the maid spray RAID next to my bed at 2am? That smell of bug spray probably isn't good to inhale. They looked at us like we were being too much or too extra but honestly, we're from the USA and I haven't stayed in such an unsanitary hotel before. Not even in the Philippines. What is really frustrating is they wouldn't give my aunt a refund. They could only offer her credit to stay at a later date. This would never fly or be alright in the USA. Very disappointing in the service. Just beware! This was terrible service in my honest opinion and the Ants! I had to check everything in the new hotel as some ants got into my suitcase. DISGUSTING. BEWARE. DON'T STAY HERE. Photos are also false advertising of the deluxe room. The walls were cracking, the floors were warping....just beware.

What travellers say about Kota Kinabalu attractions
Discover these places worth visiting in Kota Kinabalu and select a hotel nearby for ultimate convenience
Tanjung Aru Beach
Ddede13Public beach with a long coastline, fairly white sand, if you want to sit you have to pay at a table that has been prepared, only the table area is cleaned, while on the beach, there is a lot of rubbish strewn about, but overall it is very good.
Gaya Street
虱虱子多了不怕咬Gaya Street is great, with many delicious foods. You don't need to look at the guide. Any store you go to is delicious. The food in the night market is just average, similar to our night market.
Gaya Street exchange money, the exchange rate is very cost-effective, much more cost-effective than Semporna! But in Kota Kinabalu, you almost don't need to exchange money, Alipay is universal.
It is very convenient to eat durian in Gaya Street. You can sit in the store and eat slowly. They will prepare paper towels and gloves for you.
Gaya Street has many souvenirs and gifts, and you can pay with Alipay.
Gaya Street is also close to the pier.
It is recommended to stay in Gaya Street. You can go back to the hotel to rest at any time when you are tired of shopping. It is very convenient.
Mamutik Island
Aariel423Mamudi Island was the first island we chose for our island hopping trip. The weather was pretty good at the time. We were on the island for a short time, mainly to play activities on the island. We played parasailing, which was fun and a bit exciting. After the project, we went directly to Sapi Island. I heard that you can see clownfish when snorkeling in Mamudi Island, but we didn't see it, which was a pity. The scenery is OK, but the disadvantage is that the organization of the island hopping trip is really chaotic. You have to wait a long time to go to other islands and return.
Jesselton Point Ferry Terminal
AAdrynnaEnjoy our holiday. Pulau Manukan. 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
Manukan Island
ㅤㅤ ㅤ朝花夕拾Pulau Manukan is the second largest island in Tunku Abdul Rahman National Park and is also the headquarters and office of the park. The island has complete tourist facilities, including hotels, tennis courts, water skiing centers and wooden houses for accommodation. Pulau Manukan is famous for its wide range of water entertainment projects and is well located between Sapi Island and Mamudi Island, so it is often chosen as one of the destinations for a day trip.
Masjid Bandaraya Kota Kinabalu
WWeWe223Buy tickets in the small room on the right side of the gate. There are two types of tickets: outdoor tickets and indoor tickets (you need to change into local clothes for the indoor tickets). I bought an outdoor ticket for 5 Malaysian ringgits. I walked along the wall for a quarter of the rectangle and it was gone. There were some seats and swings along the way. It took five minutes to walk. If you don't mind the sun, you can watch for half an hour and enjoy it.
ps: Life is short, the filter is bold
Kota Kinabalu City Centre 0 km
Mmiel@999tovLocated near Sabah Tourism Board. Can get all the brochures needed to tour around sabah. Strategic location with many eateries around.
Tunku Abdul Rahman Marine Park
ㅤㅤ ㅤ朝花夕拾Donggu Abdul Raman National Park is Malaysia's first marine national park, located in the South China Sea off the coast of Kota Kinabalu, Sabah State, about 20 minutes by boat from Kota Kinabalu. The park consists of five main islands: Manugan, Shabi, Mamdi, Gaya and Solo. Known for its beautiful sandy beaches, clear waters, rich corals and marine life, these islands are a paradise for snorkeling, diving and water activities. Visitors can choose between two or three islands, of which Gaya Island and Manugan Island have accommodation facilities, but the price is relatively expensive. The natural scenery of Donggu Abdul Raman Park is beautiful and the sea is clear, suitable for various water activities. Sabi and Manukan are the most popular islands, and Sabi is loved by tourists with its delicate white sand beaches and rich marine life, and is a great place for snorkeling and beach recreation. Manukan is favored for its well-established tourist facilities and beautiful beaches, with resorts, restaurants and diving centers for families and couples. Also, visitors need to pay attention to a few things when playing, such as water safety and beach safety. When snorkeling or other water projects, wear a life jacket and follow the coach's instructions. There may be ants and mosquitoes on the beach, so anti-mosquito liquid is a must. In addition, due to the strong sunlight on the island, tourists are advised to wear long-sleeved trousers and apply sunscreen regularly.
University Malaysia Sabah Mosque
Aariel423The University of Sabah is really big and it is not recommended to walk. We went by car and chartered. The pink mosque has the reputation of the most beautiful university in Southeast Asia. There are many young ladies taking pictures, which is really very popular. But this is a mosque after all, and if you go in, you should pay attention to respecting religious beliefs.
