Promenade Hotel is among the classic good (4*-5*) hotels in Kota Kinabalu. Classic also means it shows the signs of ageing, probably they will need to refurbish the rooms sooner or later.
Others then that the check in was very efficient, they have like 4-5 counters, and nice staff with good English and some with Chinese speaking abilities.
The breakfast was fine, selection decent. During our two night stay most of the guests were from South Korea.
It's recommended to have your own car or use Grab, because it's a bit far from main tourist hubs. Just halfway between Gaya street and Imago. Afternoons, Evenings KK traffic can be very terrible, from Gaya st to Promenade hotel - normally 5-10 mins short drive took almost one hour, but that's not the hotels fault, but location can be a problem during busy hours.

Good design internal and everything was pretty new. The staff there were kind and friendly.
We were upgraded to another better room type due to the hygiene issue from the room assigned to us. There were breadcrumbs and hair from the previous guest when we entered. The new room we swapped to was much nicer however the basket close to sink was still moulded so we had to ask for a replacement.
The hotel itself is located in a complex building that is used for other commercial and residential purposes as well. (Check google street view) It is a bit far from the city center except for the Imago mall - though you still have to cross the road. It is close to the main road and the outside feels a bit chaotic. The noise didn’t bother us that much however your room view on the grand road is not guaranteed - your view might be the apartments next to you.
If I were able to choose again, I might go with other city hotels than this one. I wouldn’t rate it a bad hotel but for me it is a disappointment because there are better choices.

The hotel staff told us the room we book not ready for customer yet (Maybe the need to do some inspections first before selling the room bcause this hotel is consider as a new building, minor half this building still under construction). Then, we got a new room ( i think it's listed as premier bed king/queen size with seaview). Parking Zone quit spacious but 👻 ( i guess it is paid parking and i see just a few car was park make it look 👻).Thank you Citadines KK ✨🎉 for the hospitality

SSoloWondersSecond time staying here. This time I had the chance to explore the surroundings and the city.
Hotel is still in pretty good shape. Hotel staff absolutely wonderful: polite and friendly.
Hotel room is super clean - and I got overly happy to find out that one of the earring locks I had dropped was found by the cleaning lady without me having to ask!!!
The hotel is close to a night market with many delicious food stalls and great restaurants with fresh sea food, cafés and supermarkets like Servay and Bataras, and even to polyclinics, in case you need.
On my last night I went for a foot massage in one of the parlours above the building on the right hand side and wow! This is definitely my place to stay in KK!!!

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.

GGuest UserHotel grandis is the best hotel I have ever stayed in kota Kinabalu this is my second time stay at the hotel.
Before I have stayed in Hilton, Mercure, Hyatt but still I feel grandis is more comfortable because of its location, easy access to mall, big rooms, comparing other hotel like Hilton, Mercure the rooms are very small no bath tub or sea view.
We book a deluxe room in grandis we had a sea view, the rooms are spacious, bed is very comfortable my kid enjoyed the bath tub, perfectly organised room, swimming pool and gym also available at the roof top.
Good thing is that they have paid parking, buffet breakfast was pretty decent,easy access to Suria Sabah mall.

SShawal Abdul RahmanThe rooms are quite nice and comfortable. Very spacious and my kids are loving it. It's just that the menus for breakfast were unexplainable.. the prices don't fit the menus. Just a simple dish for RM50.00 it's not acceptable. Please reconsider to upgrade the breakfast menus. Thanks

DDora DoraThe hotel is so near to the jetty for islands hopping, like 5 minutes walk. There is a 7/11 downstairs and a duty free shop, a shopping mall, upsidedown museum and many restaurants within 5minutes walking distance. There are 6 of us for this trip, therefore we booked 3 bedrooms family suite, which is so big, 3 bedrooms with 1 big living room, balcony, kitchen (microwave, utensils, plates and bowls, fridge, small pot, induction cooker, range hood), and amazingly 3 bathrooms, I think is pretty ideal for family.
SShawal Abdul RahmanNeeds more improvement especially on basic amnesties supplies..such as toothbrush, combs, slippers etc...
The rooms are quite nice, yet..the carpets are a bit smelly though.
By the way, the sunrise views quite okay. Thanks
