Shangri-La Tanjung Aru, Kota Kinabalu
Staying at Shangri-La Tanjung Aru in Kota Kinabalu felt like stepping into a tropical dream. The moment you arrive, you're surrounded by lush gardens and the gentle sound of waves—seriously, it's like being transported to a hidden paradise. The resort has multiple pools, including a stunning infinity pool with panoramic sea views, plus a fun kids' water slide that kept the little ones entertained all day. I highly recommend the Chi Spa—had a traditional Asian treatment that left me completely relaxed and refreshed. The private marina, STAR Marina, is perfect for adventure seekers: we went snorkeling and kayaking right from the dock, and the crystal-clear waters were full of colorful fish. Every detail, from the service to the ambiance, feels thoughtfully crafted. It’s not just a stay—it’s an experience. Definitely one of the most memorable trips I’ve ever had.
The Magellan Sutera Resort
The Magellan Sutera Resort is an absolute gem in Kota Kinabalu. From the moment we arrived, everything felt premium and well thought out. The resort boasts a wide range of facilities—perfect for both relaxation and fun. The infinity pool is stunning, especially at sunset, and the on-site restaurants serve delicious, fresh meals with great variety. I especially loved the spa and the beachfront bar where I could unwind with a cocktail while watching the waves. There’s also a private dock, table tennis, and even a bowling alley—so many options if you don’t feel like leaving the property. Cleanliness was top-notch throughout; every corner was spotless, from the rooms to the public areas. The location is ideal—close to attractions but tucked away in a peaceful setting. What really stood out was the service: staff were genuinely attentive, friendly, and went the extra mile—some even reached out via messaging app to check in after check-in. It felt personal, not just transactional. If you’re looking for a relaxing, hassle-free getaway with excellent value, this resort is absolutely worth it.
The Pacific Sutera Hotel
I booked this room during a promotion and got the sea-view twin room with breakfast for under $600—such a great deal. The Pacific Sutera Hotel shares facilities with the nearby Magellan Sutera, which has a larger pool area and even a small waterfall—perfect for relaxing after a day out. One of the biggest perks is having their own private dock, making it super easy to book boat trips directly on-site. Yes, it’s a bit pricier than going through external vendors, but the convenience and time saved are totally worth it. I arrived in the morning and asked if early check-in was possible—surprisingly, they accommodated me right away with no deposit required. Super friendly staff and smooth process. Unfortunately, it rained for both days of my stay, so I missed seeing the sunset from the hotel—but if the weather had been sunny, that view would’ve been absolutely stunning. Overall, an excellent experience with fantastic value and service. Definitely coming back.
Le Meridien Kota Kinabalu
Staying at Le Meridien Kota Kinabalu was an absolute delight, especially the Executive Lounge—definitely worth upgrading to if you can. The sunset views from the lounge are breathtaking, and sipping a drink there as the sun dips below the horizon is pure magic. The room itself was spacious and well-maintained, with clean lines and a nice modern vibe. However, I did notice a slight sewer odor in the bathroom—something that could be improved with better ventilation or maintenance. The bed was on the softer side, which didn’t suit my preference for firmer support. That said, the overall experience was excellent, the staff were attentive, and the location made exploring Kota Kinabalu super convenient. A truly memorable stay with only minor tweaks needed.
Kota Kinabalu Marriott Hotel
We debated a lot with the family when booking—my main draw was the pool, but they preferred the new Hyatt for being closer to the pier and Gaya Street. In the end, we went with Marriott, and I’m so glad we did! The online reviews mentioned issues with hot water and constant airplane noise, but neither of those were problems here. Hot water was consistently strong every day, and while I could hear planes occasionally before bedtime (I’m a light sleeper), I actually slept well throughout our four-night stay—maybe there weren’t many flights late at night? Getting around wasn’t an issue either; taxis to both piers were quick and affordable, and dining near Dataran Square was just a short ride away, even within the first fare. The only thing that could use improvement is breakfast—it was exactly the same each morning for four days. A little variety would go a long way. But honestly, the highlight was the pool. At about 25 meters long, it’s perfect for laps. I love swimming year-round, so I’d swim after returning from evening boat trips or early in the morning during mangrove tours. After each swim, just floating on my back and watching planes fly overhead? Pure relaxation. It’s one of those moments you don’t want to leave.
Ming Garden Hotel & Residences
Staying at Ming Garden Hotel & Residences always feels like a treat. The room is spacious, spotlessly clean, and the bed is incredibly comfortable—perfect for unwinding after a busy week. The air conditioning keeps the room pleasantly cool, making it ideal for a relaxing weekend getaway. I’m already looking forward to coming back next week and hoping to book the same room again. Parking was a bit tight on Sunday, but since I was checking out that day, it wasn’t an issue. Overall, everything was excellent—from service to amenities. Highly recommend this place for anyone visiting Kota Kinabalu!
Holiday Inn Express Kota Kinabalu City Centre
My stay at Holiday Inn Express Kota Kinabalu City Centre was truly impressive. I stayed for several days and was pleasantly surprised by the breakfast selection—there were always new options each day, which showed real effort from the team. While some flavors weren’t quite to my taste, especially compared to what’s common in Chinese cuisine, it’s clear they’re putting thought into variety and quality. The housekeeping staff were friendly and attentive—especially one young gentleman who was a bit shy but always ready to help with a smile. One highlight was the hotel’s flexibility with check-out time; they happily granted me an extra hour due to my travel schedule, which made my departure stress-free. The only minor issue was the complimentary bottled water in the room—it had a faint chlorine aftertaste that made it hard to drink straight. That said, it worked fine when used for tea or coffee. Overall, this is a well-run, convenient, and value-for-money option in the heart of Kota Kinabalu. I’d definitely return.
Grandis Hotel Kota Kinabalu
The hotel is exceptionally clean and doesn’t carry any of the typical local odors that can sometimes be off-putting—definitely a big plus. I was truly impressed with the overall atmosphere and comfort. Located right next to Suria Sabah Mall, everything you’d need—from shopping to dining—is literally just steps away. The view from the window was stunning, especially during sunset when the city lights began to sparkle. It’s also super convenient for getting to the airport via public transit. This stay exceeded my expectations, and if I ever return to Kota Kinabalu, I’d definitely book here again. Highly recommend this hotel for travelers who value cleanliness, location, and a great vibe.

Though it has a long history, the renovation is recent and thorough—every facility feels modern and well-maintained. The restaurant and bar downstairs have a vibrant atmosphere, perfect for relaxing with a drink while watching the sunset over the sea. My room was spacious and comfortable, with a deep bathtub that made soaking after a long day absolutely blissful. There’s even a large wardrobe—great for storing all my luggage. The staff are attentive and helpful, offering travel tips and currency exchange right at the lobby. Cleanliness is outstanding—spotless from top to bottom. Best of all? The view. Open the window, and you're greeted by the ocean and stunning sunsets every evening. Plus, it's just a 10-minute walk to Central Market and Gaya Street Night Market—perfect for grabbing local snacks, souvenirs, or just soaking in the lively street vibe. This place truly combines comfort, convenience, and charm in one.
The Palace Hotel Kota Kinabalu
This hotel in Kota Kinabalu is an absolute gem for value seekers! I was genuinely impressed by the combination of luxury amenities and affordability—feeling like I was getting a 5-star experience at a 4-star price. The fitness center is well-equipped, modern, and spotlessly clean, making it easy to stay active during my stay. The overall environment is peaceful and beautifully maintained, with excellent hygiene standards throughout. Best of all, it's just a 5-minute walk to the nearest shopping mall and some of the most authentic seafood stalls in town—perfect for a quick bite after a long day. If you're looking for comfort, convenience, and great service without breaking the bank, this is definitely the place to stay.

With top-notch service and an excellent balance of comfort and value, this hotel truly delivers on every level. I’d definitely recommend it to travelers who want a hassle-free stay in Kota Kinabalu.
