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.
The Luma Hotel, a Member of Design Hotels
The Luma Hotel is perfectly located in Kota Kinabalu, making it super convenient for exploring the city. Just a short walk from the hotel, you'll find a convenience store, several restaurants, and even a Bawang Cha Ji outlet. Across the street is a large shopping mall with familiar Chinese brands like Haidilao and other popular drinks—great for those craving home-style flavors. The room was spacious and quiet, which made for a peaceful stay, especially at night. Although the front desk doesn’t offer dedicated Chinese service, the staff speak a few basic phrases in Mandarin, so communication wasn’t an issue. Overall, the location, comfort, and thoughtful touches make this a standout choice for travelers who want both convenience and a relaxed atmosphere. I’d definitely stay here again on my next visit to Sabah.

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.
