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.
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.
Promenade Hotel Kota Kinabalu
From Kuala Lumpur to Kota Kinabalu, this hotel has been the best value for money I've experienced so far. 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.
Queensland Suites at Aru Suites, Kota Kinabalu
Staying at this property was an absolute delight! The room is spacious and features a stunning view directly overlooking the airport—just sitting by the window felt like watching planes take off and land, which was such a unique experience. Location-wise, it’s very convenient; getting into town via public transport is quick and easy, and there are plenty of great dining options nearby. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive, even offering a little welcome gift upon check-in—such thoughtful touches really make a difference. Everything about the stay was top-notch: comfort, cleanliness, and value for money. I’d highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a comfortable, memorable stay in Kota Kinabalu.
D'CASA Riverson at Kota Kinabalu
Staying at D'CASA Riverson at Kota Kinabalu was a mixed experience. The location is fantastic—just a short walk from Imago, making it super convenient for shopping and dining. There's also a small mall right on the ground floor, which adds to the convenience. However, one major downside is that the hotel sits directly under the airport flight path, so the sound of planes flying overhead is quite loud, especially during nighttime. If you're a light sleeper or sensitive to noise, this could be a real issue. That said, the room itself was clean, tidy, and well-maintained with all essentials provided. It’s definitely a good option if you’re okay with the aircraft noise and prioritize proximity to the city center and entertainment spots. Just be mindful when booking—consider requesting a quieter room facing away from the runway. Overall, solid value for money if you’re not bothered by the constant flyovers.
The Aru Hotel at Aru Suites
Staying at The Aru Hotel at Aru Suites was a total surprise—so much better than expected! The room was spacious, clean, and offered great value for the price. The rooftop pool was a highlight, perfect for relaxing after a long day. The evening street view from the hotel was charming, with vibrant local energy just outside. While breakfast wasn’t included, there’s a fantastic KFC nearby that makes up for it—seriously one of the best fried chicken meals I’ve had on my trip. The location is a bit off the main tourist trail, near the airport, but Grab rides are super convenient and get you downtown in no time. The only minor downside? Front desk staff don’t speak Chinese, so communication required some patience and effort—but nothing deal-breaking. Facilities were solid, especially the room size and cleanliness, which is impressive at this price point. They do enforce a strict no-rambutan policy (with fines if brought in), but it’s understandable to maintain hygiene standards across shared spaces. Overall, this place delivers exceptional comfort, convenience, and value. If you’re looking for a quiet, well-maintained stay with a good vibe and great access to local life, this is definitely worth considering.
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!
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.
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!
Hotel Capital Kota Kinabalu
Staying at Hotel Capital Kota Kinabalu was a great experience. The hotel is perfectly located on Jalan Gaya, making it super convenient to get around—just a short walk to the waterfront and all major attractions. Right behind the hotel are two banks for easy cash exchange, which saved me a lot of hassle. Across the street is a shopping mall, and you can easily walk to Sunrise Square for some retail therapy. There’s also an Orange convenience store nearby where you can store your luggage for free—such a helpful touch! While the hotel is a bit older, the upper-floor rooms are surprisingly quiet and peaceful, perfect for a good night's sleep. Overall, this place offers excellent value for money and a very convenient location. I’d definitely stay here again.
SabahSuite@Jesselton Quay
Staying at this 2-bedroom apartment in the heart of the city was a fantastic experience. The space is spacious at 50 square meters, with a large bed and a smaller one in one room—perfect for a family of three. The living area features sliding doors that create a cozy nook with a compact double bed, making it ideal for larger families or even a group of friends. The host speaks Mandarin and is easy to communicate with via WeChat—just make sure to watch the detailed check-in video they send, as it’s essential for understanding the process. Located right next to Jesselton Premium Outlets and just a short walk from Sunrise Square, everything you need—from dining to shopping—is within easy reach. The rooftop infinity pool overlooking the sea is stunning during the day, but gets crowded at night when people come in their clothes, and the water isn’t very clear. Still, it’s a great spot for a daytime swim. Best of all? No deposit required. This apartment offers excellent value and convenience, especially for families or travelers looking for a comfortable, well-located stay.
Homi Oasis at KK Times Square
Staying at this hotel was an absolute delight! The host was incredibly responsive and always available to assist—whether it was a quick question or something more urgent. The room itself was well-equipped with everything I needed, and the cleanliness and comfort made it feel like home. The location is fantastic—just steps away from Imago Mall, making shopping, dining, and exploring super convenient. Plus, the price was so reasonable for what you get—excellent value for money. I had such a great experience that I’m already planning my next visit. Highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Kota Kinabalu!
