Nice, comfortable stay with friendly staff. Overall, we enjoyed our time here. However, we booked a room for 4 persons, but only 2 travel kits were provided (2 toothbrushes, 1 comb, etc.). We had to call housekeeping to request additional items. After a long journey, we were quite tired and hoped the room would be fully prepared according to the number of guests. It would be much better if a complete set was provided upon check-in. Breakfast was simple but nice, which we appreciated. One downside is the parking fee, which is quite expensive — RM30 per day for front shop parking and RM15 for basement parking. Hopefully, the hotel can look into improving or offering better parking rates for guests.

The room was quite clean. It's within walking distance to Gaya Street, Suria Sabah, and other places, as it's located in the city center. Kota Kinabalu is small, so every taxi ride seems to pass by the hotel, and it's very close to the Hilton. We checked in around midnight on the 17th, and the front desk lady was incredibly gentle and kind, providing very professional and warm service. The hotel facilities are a bit old, and the lobby had a peculiar smell, like durian or something similar, which wasn't very pleasant. However, the rooms facing the mountain were very quiet, and I slept really well. Overall, it's worth recommending, and I hope they can provide bottled water in the future.

Facilities: Pretty good for a city hotel, very convenient for dining and shopping. Hygiene: The hygiene was excellent on the first day, but I was surprised that over a three-day stay, the room was only cleaned once. I had to request water myself, but they provided it promptly when asked. Also, the in-room safe had no battery and couldn't be used. I informed the hotel on the first day, but it was still broken when I left, so I had to carry my passport with me every day. Environment: The environment is quite nice, with its own swimming pool and clean towels available. Service: The staff were very friendly, always smiling and greeting guests. However, despite informing the front desk about the safe issue and being told it was 'OK,' no one ever came to fix it.

The location is fantastic, very close to Jesselton Point,銘刻旅行社 (Mingke Travel Agency), Gaya Street, and Suria Sabah shopping mall. It's super convenient for shopping and island hopping. The hotel itself is quite new, with a stylish design and layout, attracting a lot of younger guests. Breakfast is excellent – plentiful, exquisite, and high-quality. You can even enjoy it on the outdoor terrace with direct sea views, which is a real bonus. The pool isn't huge; it's a long, narrow shape, but you still get to enjoy the sea view from there. My only minor complaints are that they don't provide complimentary bottled water that you can take out (only glass bottles for in-room use), and the lobby on the first floor is a bit small.

Worth the price with a strategic location The hotel offers good value for money and is located in a very strategic city-center area, making it easy to get around, with shops and restaurants nearby. The staff are friendly and helpful, providing good service throughout the stay. The room is clean, comfortable, and well-maintained. Overall, the stay was pleasant. However, there is room for improvement in terms of in-room utensils. It would be better if basic items such as spoons and dishwashing liquid were provided for added convenience. Overall, a satisfying stay and would recommend it.

The hotel is clean and hygienic. It's a one-bedroom apartment with a washing machine. It's very convenient for getting around, being close to the pier, so you can sleep in a bit. I was always the last one to be picked up for tours. It also has a balcony.

This hotel has been open for over 20 years, so the facilities are a bit old and the soundproofing isn't great. However, the location is absolutely fantastic – you can walk to all sorts of dining, drinking, and entertainment options. The sunset from the ocean view rooms is also beautiful. Right outside, there's a vibrant food stall and BBQ market with a great atmosphere. The staff's service and attitude are excellent.

The overall experience was okay. The soundproofing is extremely poor. You can hear every single sound from upstairs, downstairs, the hallway, and outside the window clearly and constantly inside the room. Service: On the first day, we arrived punctually at 3 PM to check in, only to be told that our room wasn't ready. We had to wait for nearly 20-30 minutes without any compensation or explanation. They also refused our request for a late check-out, which made the entire trip start off on a very unpleasant note.

Conveniently close to the airport. I'm really impressed with the hotel's design and service. This is my second time staying here, and I'll definitely choose this hotel again in the future. The price is also very reasonable, and I've even recommended it to friends.

Overall, it was a great stay. The room was new, had a bathtub, comfortable bedding, and a pleasant environment. The staff were friendly and professional. The breakfast tasted good, but the variety was a bit limited; by the fourth day, I was running out of things to try. The beef noodle soup at the noodle station was delicious, but the portion was too small. Also, check-in and check-out were quite slow, a bit less efficient compared to what I'm used to domestically. I would still choose to stay here again.

AAnonymous UserWe booked a Kinabalu Wing sea view room. The room facilities were a bit old, but acceptable. The hotel offers free activities and has its own jetty for island hopping, which, though double the price, is convenient. However, the hotel's service was terrible. We waited in line for half an hour to check in. When it was finally our turn, the front desk staff cut me off twice before I could finish speaking, and their attitude was arrogant. It was infuriating! I was already fuming before even getting to the room. Breakfast also required queuing because there were simply too many people. This really highlights a problem: the hotel's facilities can't keep up. If they have enough rooms to accommodate so many guests, why don't they staff the front desk and provide enough breakfast tables and chairs to match? We didn't even get welcome fruit after checking in. Not that we needed it, but the worst part was that someone came to deliver it only after we had already settled into our room and been asleep for half an hour. The most outrageous thing was that while we were sleeping, I (who wasn't fully asleep yet) heard the doorbell ring twice. By the time I reacted, the service person had already opened the door themselves. If I had been fully asleep and hadn't called out to them, would they have just walked right in? Secondly, the cleanliness wasn't great. There were even stains on the water bottle. Finally, the breakfast wasn't good, and there wasn't anything particularly appealing. Overall, the view is genuinely beautiful, but if you come with expectations matching the price, you'll likely be disappointed.

AAnonymous UserJust got back home yesterday, and I'm determined to write a thorough review for this hotel. My kids also encouraged me to review it, because it truly deserves it. We booked four ocean villas for two nights, and I initially thought our chances of encountering issues would be higher with such a large booking. But we didn't run into any problems at all! In fact, I even regretted not booking more nights, mainly because I was put off by too many negative reviews on Ctrip. 1. **Service:** If you're comfortable communicating in English, the hotel service is absolutely fantastic. Most of the staff speak excellent English and were diligent in explaining activities, facilities, schedules, and programs. They showed us where everything was in the room and proactively informed us about the cost if we broke any of the toiletries bottles. The higher cost for broken bottles is because the contents are genuinely expensive – they're pure plant essential oil toiletries. As someone who regularly uses essential oils, I know they shouldn't be stored in plastic. Plus, these toiletries left our hair and skin feeling moisturized, not dry. I found them to be very effective. If you're worried about breaking them, just place them on the floor. 2. **Seawater:** The seawater is quite clear. While it's not a 'jelly blue,' the clarity is definitely good. We did experience a heavy downpour one day, and the water became a bit murky the next, but it was still perfectly acceptable. The photo of the large sea turtle looks a bit blurry because it was taken with a waterproof phone case, but the water itself was actually very clear. That was taken from under our water villa. The manta ray was photographed near the stairs of our water villa room. 3. **No Outside Food Policy:** They don't allow outside food in the rooms because it attracts ants and monkeys. The front desk has a dedicated area for storing snacks. We didn't bring any snacks into our room and always closed the door promptly, so we didn't have any bugs or insects. A crucial point: absolutely do not feed the monkeys! 4. **Meals:** We had all our meals at the hotel restaurant, and the food was truly delicious. A main meal costs around 90+ MYR per person (about 160 CNY). We felt the food was excellent, with a good variety of dishes and drinks beyond just the main courses. The kids' portions were a bit small; our four children ordered 7 kids' meals, and eventually, we just ordered them regular adult meals instead. 5. **Hot Water:** Regarding previous reviews mentioning no hot water, one of our rooms indeed had this issue. We called the front desk, and it turned out there's a 'water heater' button on the wall. Hot water was available within 15 minutes. So, don't hesitate to ask! Don't be shy; good service often requires you to speak up. 6. **Free Rentals:** Paddleboards, small boats, fins, and masks are all available for free rental. 7. **Marine Life:** In the ocean, we spotted baby sharks, baby manta rays, triggerfish, archerfish (the ones that shoot water), porcupinefish, and even a large sea turtle (which is rare, but we got lucky!). 8. **Welcome/Farewell:** We received a welcome ceremony and a welcome drink upon arrival. Upon departure, we sometimes had the whole staff waving goodbye to us. 9. **Guest Demographics:** There were a lot of European and American guests at the hotel, some Koreans, but not many Chinese guests. I wonder if this is due to the excessive negative reviews on Ctrip. 10. **Cleanliness:** The hygiene was excellent, and the rooms were very clean. Each room came with life vests, so you could go snorkeling anytime. That pretty much covers it. I believe if your English communication is good, feel free to chat with the front desk and restaurant staff; they are very engaging. At 8 AM, the hotel organizes a free jungle trek. It was a bit tiring, and we didn't see much – just hiking uphill. For reference, my experience this trip, and with these four rooms, was genuinely excellent. Having been to places like the Maldives, Bali, and Koh Lipe... I think this hotel offers great value for money, and I would definitely come back. Hotels at this price point on Koh Lipe before were significantly worse.

XXiaolanmaosarahThe hotel was really just so-so, but its location is great. It's only a 10-minute walk to the pier for boat excursions, and there are supermarkets and restaurants all around. However, I really have to complain about the hotel's service. We were two adults and one child, and we brought our own toiletries. We just wanted to ask for one more bath towel, but the hotel refused... Honestly, it's the first time I've encountered such a stingy hotel. I wasn't trying to take it home; it's just that two towels aren't enough for three people to shower. That's easy to understand, right? Seriously, it's speechless...

GGuest UserFacilities: The rooms are spacious and the hotel is large. Overall, it's suitable for younger children to play. Hygiene: Standard, good. Environment: It's far from the airport and traffic can be bad. Make sure to allow plenty of time if you have a flight to catch. We left at 6:15 AM and arrived at 7:55 AM; our driver was really speeding to get us to the airport on time. Service: I have to complain. 1. Even though we used WeChat to scan the QR code and there were many Chinese guests, the dining and activity information was still in English, and the font was very small, making it inconvenient to read on a phone. 2. When checking in, I told the front desk to pack breakfast on time for our last day, and they agreed and noted it, but they still forgot. All they said was 'sorry' and nothing else... These two points make it far from a five-star experience. The hotel breakfast wasn't very good. There are a few good seafood restaurants around the hotel that are fresh, affordable, and have a Chinese cooking style. I stayed at the Shangri-La on Tanjung Aru Road about ten years ago, and that location is better, though this one is larger.

MMuhammad Damian SanI had an absolutely unforgettable experience at Sutera @ Mantanani Island. From the moment I arrived, I was completely mesmerized by the island’s beauty the crystal clear turquoise waters, soft pearly sand, and breathtaking views felt like something out of a dream. Every moment spent there was pure bliss. What truly made the experience even more special was the warmth and friendliness of the staff. Their genuine smiles and welcoming hospitality made me feel right at home and added so much heart to the trip. Whether relaxing by the beach or simply soaking in the peaceful atmosphere, everything about Mantanani felt magical. Overall, it was a perfect escape, and I truly enjoyed every second of my stay. Sutera @ Mantanani Island is a hidden gem, and without a doubt, I will be returning again in the future.

HHefeng05This is my second stay at the Hyatt Regency Kinabalu, and the experience was excellent once again! 👍 📍 The location is absolutely perfect, right in the city center. It's a 5-10 minute walk to shopping malls and duty-free shops, and even closer to Durian Street and Gaya Street, making it super convenient for dining, shopping, and exploring. In the evenings, it's lovely to stroll to the night market or the seafront. 🛏️ I highly recommend the high-floor sea-view rooms. The views are unbeatable 🌊, and watching the sunset is breathtaking! The rooms are spacious and clean, the bedding is comfortable, and it's perfect for family trips. They even offer a complimentary extra bed, which is a thoughtful touch. 🍽️ The breakfast deserves special praise! There's a wide variety of dishes, and the freshly cooked noodles and rice vermicelli have different toppings each day – the beef and tendons are incredibly flavorful 😋. The Teh Tarik (pulled tea) is rich and aromatic, and the croissants are thin and crispy, unlike any I've had in China! The Chinese-speaking staff even help prepare the Teh Tarik, providing friendly and attentive service. 💁 The staff are always smiling, proactive, and enthusiastic. Communication in Chinese is largely seamless, making you feel right at home.

GGuest UserEverything was fine. Service, location. Easy access. Free parking. Beautiful sight of room. Except I do feel the size of beds seem smaller than other hotel. Location is nice. Easy to walk around other places. Near KK plaza & walking distance to waterfront & centrepoint sabah. But do smell market at the parking lot. Swimming pool cgood. Got both for adult and kids. I do wish more table & seats provided outside of changing room. Breakfast was worth it. For kids & adults. I would suggest if you could add hot chocolate for drinks as well. Personally I would like to stay at this hotel next time.

HhehahoFirst off, upon entering the hotel lobby, there was a strange, unpleasant smell, which also permeated our room. The odor only disappeared after we blocked the bathroom floor drain and sink. The breakfast, however, was plentiful. We booked an executive room and visited the executive lounge on the 15th floor. The dinner there was just okay; it filled us up, but there wasn't much variety, and on one occasion, by around 8 PM, there was nothing left but juice and beverages. The infinity pool was nice. At check-out, we were missing a room card, but the front desk didn't charge us for it, which was a pleasant surprise. Our executive room had a connecting door to the adjacent room, suggesting they can be linked. The overall soundproofing in the room wasn't great. There are three convenience stores located downstairs from the hotel.
