Hotels in Kundasang

"This stay is within the KL national park. So to get to the reception you will need to pay for thr entrance fee to the park. My intention was to stay for one night before going back to town. This place is meant for hikers who stay for the night to prepare themselves for the climb up to kk peak The floor Is wooden and when people walks , there are lots of noise. So if you are expecting a good quiet rest, probably it's not a good place for you. People get up very early to climb, so expect another of chatters. In short, good place for hikers but not for thr ordinary people expecting a proper stay"

"Friendly reception and very helpful booking staff. Great service at front office. Smooth check in and check out. House keeping staff so far has been smooth. Room is clean but exterior/interior need to do some maintenance. Food is simple and delicious. Exterior and interior need to upgrade and required maintenance work. Garden and surrounding area required some work to keep up with time. I see potential of the inn but need to keep up with current demands. Nevertheless, it's peaceful and calming place. Hopefully the management improve it the exterior/interior look of it."

"July 2024 TL;DR: This place feels more like a meditation centre than a hotel, it will not provide you with supplements. It's a bare room. You need to bring toothbrush&paste and buy drinks somewhere as it is not provided. No tv and fan. No in-house restaurant. There are mosquitoes at the garden near afternoon, and the balcony at night, but there are no insects in the room (family room). In exchange you will get a very clear and vivid Mt Kinabalu view in the near-dawn morning (where there is no mosquito), a working shower with heater, concrete floor that reduces nearby noise, and cold foggy experience. Long: This place is within the fog path so you will get the foggy experience. You can also see Mt. Kinabalu at the right time and it looks quite close (e.g. dawn 6 a.m.). You can even see the electric towers and resthouse, it's that close. Moreover, this place is more like a meditation centre than a hotel. It is visibly run down probably since covid as that is also when the in-house restaurant got closed down. Considering my experience as a recurrent visitor of Kundasang, mosquito has always been the least of my concern. Somehow this place has lots of them. We got bit quite a lot in a short span of time. Undesirable / Cons: -No water kettle, no supplements (water bottle, coffee pack, toothbrush, toothpaste, etc.). Porcelain mugs are provided though -No in-house cafe/restaurant but nearby has a few (400 meters at least) -No tv, no fan but cold in general -Quite a lot of mosquito and moths outside at the garden place in the afternoon and at the balcony connecting the 2 buildings at night. There are no electric zapper. -Seems a bit run down at the garden. 2 broken board pieces on the floor for example. -It has no Qibla for muslim people, at least in family room Desirable / Pros: -Big room. Not smelly -Is cement board floor -Big single beds. Not smelly -Clean bed. Fluffy cover. -Water heater is working for family room at least -Relatively clean inside room and at reception. No insects in room. No weird bugs around. -Has a table and chairs in room -Lots of electrical port -Wifi provided by hotel is strong (2.4Ghz and 5Ghz -Very near main road. So good road going towards the hotel -Aki-Aki trail starting point is nearby. Plan to go next time so no experience as of this review This place is not too bad. Not too good either. Personally, I wouldn't place this as my top place for the foggy and view considering other options but I don't mind returning if necessary. It will sure be much much better to highly recommended with much needed renovation and have some methods to deal with those mosquito. p.s. There's a cute puppy that invites you at the entrance. 😂 p.s.s. I saw a greater coucal gliding into the forest in the morning!"

"Hotel located slightly far from attractions area. Grable Road and ensure your car is safe and maintained before enter the driveway. I am staying at Kinabalu View Room. The view in the morning is really beautiful ❤️ Overall, if you’re looking for a hotel in this area with a great view and a comfortable stay, I’d definitely recommend."

"for the price of RM130+/nite for a room of 3pax I would say its really really worth it, nothing fancy but room is decent enough for me and my parents, water heater is workimg well as the weather there is really cold plus the rainy day, tv aint working but not a big deal as its time for family bonding😁 basic amenities available with clean towels, lots of parking available, free wifi available but was not that stable. one thing good bout this place is the location, located right by the main road heading Kundasang town, and very convenient a restaurant situated just below of the hotel, serving NO PORK dishes, general food is and price is reasonable👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻"

"Amenities in the room, such as hair dryer, iron, ironing board, kettle, cups, 3 in 1 coffee, tea, drinking water, towels, conditioning shampoo, shower gel and prayer mat for Muslims are available. There is no dental care kit, so bring your own. Otherwise, you'll have to drive a bit to buy one. It was my third time in Kundasang, so we rented a car and drove to the location. The road to the location is quite challenging if you're not used to the rural road. There are plenty of parking spaces there. I also saw guests with private tour guides who drove them around. I think that's a good idea, too. I booked the room with the mountain view, but the weather was not on my side. The mountain was in view very early in the morning when it was still dark, and then it was covered in clouds for the rest of the day. There is no aircon but a cute ceiling fan we didn't use because it was already cold. However, I wish I could open the windows without letting the bugs in. There were huge spiders making their webs near my window, and I dare not open it. The beds are okay - not the comfiest and only one rather flat pillow for our heads. We slept well nonetheless. We spent most of our time outside the room unless it's to shower or sleep. There's a cafe where we took our dinner to the outside dining area. The tables and chairs were scattered around so we had to arrange them ourselves. There is hot water, but at around 7am, the shower runs cold even with the water heater turned on. Could it be that everyone is showering at the same time? A simple breakfast is served at the cafe for the guests. When I was there, they had fried mi hun, French toast, sausages, baked beans, and eggs. There were two types of cereal. A bread station where you can toast your bread. Only white bread was available. Drinks were orange cordial, coffee, and tea. They replenish the food if finished, so don't worry about getting to the breakfast a bit late. The best thing about the whole trip was the booking, checking in, and checking out was hassle-free. Also, if you love flowers, walk around the place and admire their hydrangeas."

"Its quite a nice location to see the Mount Kinabalu in the early morning. But please concern on the road to the property is not so good. Highly recommend to reach there before 6pm as the sky went dark early. Have hot water prepared for shower but the water basin there didn't have. It's feeezing when washing hands and face. Check in check out is smooth btw. Also, the staffs that communicated with are nice."

"My room had a beautiful and relaxing view. Every morning, I woke up to the stunning sight of Mount Kinabalu right outside the window. The place is very child-friendly, with safe and fun areas for kids to play. It’s perfect for a family getaway, as everything is well-suited for both adults and children. The surrounding scenery is peaceful and green, making the whole stay feel calm and refreshing. The cool weather added to the comfort, making it a really enjoyable trip. And for sure, the staff were very kind and helpful, which made the experience even better."
