Traveler Reviews

Sky Hotel
The price is really reasonable for what you get—over $200 per night for a two-room unit? That’s a solid deal. I’ll be honest, you do need to bring your own bedding set, so don’t expect luxury. But considering the rate, it’s totally acceptable. After landing in Kota Kinabalu, staying here for two nights felt just right—perfect for a budget-friendly stopover. The location is convenient, and getting around the city by public transit is easy. If you’re looking for something simple, clean, and affordable with a bit of comfort, this place works well. It won’t blow you away, but for the price, it’s a great value option.
Oceania Hotel
I was pleasantly surprised by how great this hotel turned out to be—right in the heart of Kota Kinabalu, with everything within walking distance. The location is perfect: short walk to the beach, local markets, restaurants, and attractions. The sea is incredibly blue, and sunset views are absolutely stunning. Security is solid—access requires a key card, which gives peace of mind. Staff are friendly and helpful, even with minimal English. Simple phrases like '1-10', 'bathroom', or 'how much' get the job done. Rooms are clean, well-maintained, and offer good value for money. I’d definitely stay here again on my next trip to Sabah. A real gem!
Gaya Centre Hotel
The Gaya Centre Hotel completely exceeded my expectations! The room was clean, comfortable, and well-maintained—definitely not what I expected based on some of the older reviews. While the building has a bit of vintage charm and the décor feels dated, it's still in excellent condition overall. What really stands out is the location—just a 10-minute walk from Jalan Tunku Abdul Rahman (Chinatown Pier), making it super convenient for exploring the area, grabbing street food, or heading out for a night on the town. The staff were friendly and helpful, adding to the great experience. If I’m ever back in Kota Kinabalu, this will be my top pick again. Highly recommended for travelers who value convenience and good value!
Homesuite' Home at the Loft
The apartment was excellent overall—spacious, comfortable, and well-decorated with modern appliances that made the stay very enjoyable. The room layout is generous, offering plenty of space for a family getaway. Free parking access with ample space was a big plus, and it’s just a short walk to Imago Mall, making shopping and dining super convenient. However, there were a few drawbacks: the washing machine didn’t work at all, and the TV required excessive pressure on the remote control to respond. There were also persistent yellow lines on the screen, and frequent buffering disrupted movie-watching sessions. Most disappointing was the lack of Netflix access—no option to install it despite trying. For a 3-night stay where we planned to unwind together with some shows at night, this was a real letdown. That said, despite these issues, the positive aspects still stand out. The size, comfort, and clean design make it worth considering for future stays. I’d definitely revisit if we’re looking for a home-like retreat in Kota Kinabalu.
THE LOFT IMAGO
We had an amazing stay at Edward’s place—truly a highlight of our trip! The unit was spotless, spacious, and perfectly suited for our group of 12, including kids, with plenty of room to relax and unwind. Location-wise, it couldn’t be better—the Imago Shopping Mall is right in the same building, so grabbing snacks, essentials, or just a quick stroll was effortless. Plus, most of the top attractions are just a 10-minute drive away, making exploration super convenient. Edward went above and beyond as a host—friendly, responsive, and full of thoughtful recommendations for local eats and hidden gems that truly enhanced our experience. If you’re traveling with family or a large group, this is an absolute must-book. Highly recommend!
The Klagan Hotel
Staying at The Klagan Hotel in Kota Kinabalu was an absolute delight from start to finish. From the moment I checked in, the staff made me feel welcome and well taken care of—friendly, efficient, and genuinely attentive. The front desk team handled everything smoothly and even took time to walk me through the hotel’s amenities. Throughout my stay, room service was prompt and reliable; any request was addressed quickly and with a smile. One time, I accidentally left something behind in the restaurant, and they noticed it right away, reached out to me immediately—it was such a thoughtful gesture. As for dining, breakfast was fantastic: a great mix of local and international options, fresh fruits, perfectly cooked eggs, and warm bread that smelled amazing. Dinner was equally impressive—well-prepared dishes with good presentation and flavor. Overall, the combination of excellent service, comfort, and tasty food makes this hotel stand out. It’s not just a place to sleep—it feels like home away from home. I’ll definitely be back.
Cititel Express Kota Kinabalu
Staying at Cititel Express Kota Kinabalu was a truly pleasant experience. The hotel feels fresh and well-maintained—definitely recently renovated with no unpleasant odors, just a subtle, clean scent throughout the rooms. Cleanliness is excellent: everything from the bathroom to the bed linens felt spotless, with no signs of dust or grime. The overall environment is quiet and comfortable, with good sound insulation in most rooms. However, if you're on the side facing the main street, the windows aren’t fully soundproof—something to keep in mind when booking. Staff were friendly and helpful, especially during check-out; extending my stay by four hours cost only 90 MYR, which felt very reasonable. There’s a designated smoking area outside, neatly arranged and considerate of non-smokers. On-site, there's a supermarket and convenience store right downstairs, plus plenty of dining options nearby—no need to worry about finding food. The highlight? I was lucky enough to catch an absolutely stunning sunset from my window—one of those moments that made the whole trip unforgettable.
Sunset Seaview Vacation Condos @ Imago Shopping Mall
Staying at Sunset Seaview Vacation Condos was an absolute delight. The location is unbeatable—right above Imago Shopping Mall, so everything you need is just steps away. From dining and shopping to entertainment, it’s all within easy reach. The apartment itself was clean, well-maintained, and had a lovely sea view that made every moment feel special, especially during sunset. The convenience of being in the heart of the city without sacrificing comfort or privacy is hard to beat. I’d highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Kota Kinabalu. It’s a perfect blend of relaxation and accessibility—truly a standout choice.
Hotel Sixty3
Staying at Hotel Sixty3 in Kota Kinabalu was one of the highlights of my trip to Malaysia. I specifically chose this hotel because it has a unique charm and a sense of history—its architecture instantly reminded me of old European buildings I’ve seen before, which brought back memories of traveling with my wife years ago in Russia. The staff at the front desk were incredibly friendly and helpful, making check-in a pleasant experience. The interior design is thoughtfully done with eco-friendly materials and thoughtful touches throughout. Cleanliness is good overall, though there was a slight musty smell in the room—nothing major, but worth noting. What truly stands out is the location: directly across from the Kota Kinabalu Tourism Centre, just 2 minutes walk to Sunset Square and about 7–8 minutes to Jesselton Point Pier. On my last day, we returned from the pier during a sudden downpour—no taxis available—but walking back was easy and manageable thanks to the short distance. For travelers on a budget who still want a reliable, well-located, and character-filled stay, Hotel Sixty3 is an excellent choice. It’s convenient, authentic, and delivers great value. Highly recommend!
Sunset Seaview Vacation Condos @ Infinity Avenue
Staying at Sunset Seaview Vacation Condos @ Infinity Avenue was an absolute delight. The location is incredibly convenient—just a short walk to IMAGO Shopping Mall, and the ground floor is packed with great dining options, so you can grab a meal without even stepping outside. The sea views from the rooms are stunning, especially at sunset. Everything was clean, modern, and well-maintained, making it a perfect base for exploring Kota Kinabalu. I’d highly recommend this place to anyone looking for comfort, convenience, and a touch of coastal charm.
Hotel Five 2
This was our first stay at Hotel Five 2, and it absolutely exceeded our expectations. We arrived early at 8:00 AM, and the front desk staff were incredibly welcoming—they happily stored our luggage without any hassle. During checkout, a kind staff member even offered us complimentary coffee and tea in the lobby, which added such a warm, personal touch. The bed was comfortable, the bathroom was simple but spotlessly clean, and the overall atmosphere felt cozy and well-maintained. Location-wise, it’s unbeatable—just a 5-minute walk to Centre Point, making it super easy to explore the city on foot. Whether you're here for business or leisure, this hotel delivers great value and genuine hospitality. We’d definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to fellow travelers.
Mari Mari Homestay @ Imago the loft Apartment (Imago Shopping Mall)
Arrived in Kota Kinabalu late at night after an early flight, and chose this apartment hotel as a convenient overnight stop. I got a taxi right outside the airport for just MYR 30—only about 15 minutes to reach the property. Since it was so early, the security staff hadn’t arrived yet, but luckily ran into another guest heading out who helped me access the unit using the password provided by the host. The apartment itself is clean, well-equipped, and perfect for a quick layover. Everything you’d need is there—kitchenette, bedding, Wi-Fi—no complaints at all. The location is fantastic: right below Imago Shopping Mall, so dining and shopping are just steps away. And in under 5 minutes on foot, you’re at the beach—beautiful views, gentle sea breeze, ideal for relaxing after a long trip. Honestly, the value-for-money here is outstanding. I’d definitely come back if I ever visit Kota Kinabalu again.
