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.
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!
Pan Borneo Hotel Kota Kinabalu
Staying at this hotel in Kota Kinabalu was an excellent choice for both business and leisure travel. The location is incredibly convenient—just a short ride to the airport and close to downtown attractions. The staff were welcoming and attentive, and the room itself felt modern, clean, and well-maintained. I was especially impressed with the bedding quality and overall hygiene—everything felt fresh and reassuring. While there are minor areas that could be improved, they didn’t take away from the overall experience. For anyone visiting Kota Kinabalu, whether for work or vacation, I’d highly recommend this place. In fact, I’d definitely book here again on my next trip. With such a strong performance across comfort, cleanliness, and service, it easily earns a solid 4.5 out of 5 stars—perfect for professionals, couples, or travelers who value a high-quality stay.
Asaya Hotel Kota Kinabalu - Refurbished 2024
Staying at Asaya Hotel Kota Kinabalu was a refreshing experience—especially since it's been recently refurbished in 2024. The room was clean, comfortable, and well-designed with modern touches that made the stay feel luxurious without being overwhelming. I didn’t get a chance to use the pool (though the photo shows it clearly), but seeing it from the picture alone gave me a good sense of the vibe—calm and inviting. The location is quiet yet convenient: there’s a small convenience store nearby, plus a peaceful park right across the street. It’s perfect for travelers who want a relaxed getaway away from the crowds. At night, the area stays dimly lit with few bright buildings or foot traffic—this adds to the serene atmosphere, making it ideal for unwinding. Plus, getting into town via public transport is straightforward. Overall, this hotel strikes a great balance between comfort, tranquility, and value—highly recommend if you’re looking for a peaceful retreat in Kota Kinabalu.
KWEN Suites-Tanjung Aru InfinityPool Seaview/Airport View
Stayed here with two friends and was absolutely impressed by the spacious, comfortable rooms. The unit felt more like a home away from home—big enough for three people without feeling cramped. It's just a short taxi ride to the beach, making it super convenient for those who love seaside access. The apartment comes well-equipped with a fridge, washing machine, and water purifier that provides both hot and cold water—perfect for daily living. I even used the balcony to hang out laundry, which was a nice touch. Although we didn’t get a chance to try the infinity pool due to time constraints, the pre-arrival communication with the host was smooth and helpful—the welcome guide arrived in advance, making check-in hassle-free. Overall, the location is excellent, transportation is easy, and the value for money is outstanding. Highly recommend this stay for anyone visiting Kota Kinabalu.
The Loft Imago City
The building was originally designed as a high-end residential complex, but some owners have turned their units into short-term rentals, which has created major concerns for other residents. Now, it's unclear who’s staying next door—even security staff can’t keep track of guests. This lack of control likely stems from the developer cutting corners by not complying with the Housing and Development Act, especially in fire safety standards required for residential buildings. Management has already warned the homestay operators about the risks of unregulated visitors, yet they frequently change access cards to the elevator, parking area, and lobby. Constant noise—loud music and footsteps—echoes through the ceilings and hallways, as some guests use the space for parties or extended stays. Unlike reputable hotel chains with consistent service and safety measures, this place feels chaotic and unsafe. If you value peace, privacy, and security during your trip, avoid this property. Just visit Imago Mall, grab some souvenirs, and head back home without complications.
Hotel Shangri-la Kota Kinabalu
I was a bit hesitant before booking this hotel—reviews weren’t outstanding, and the price seemed too good to be true. I only planned to stay one night as a transit stop, so I didn’t expect much. But honestly, it exceeded my expectations. This isn’t the well-known Shangri-La you often hear about, but it’s actually a long-standing local favorite with nearly 50 years of history. Despite its age, it’s been maintained incredibly well. The lobby feels spacious and welcoming, and the room itself was clean, roomy, and comfortable. The only downside was that my room type had no actual window—just a curtain—but when I opened it, I realized it just faced a wall. Still, since the room was quiet, well-equipped, and spotless, it didn’t really matter. Location-wise, it’s very convenient: there’s a 7-Eleven and several restaurants right nearby, and it’s less than a kilometer to Gaya Street. A short 10-minute drive gets you to the airport. Overall, the value for money is excellent. It’s a solid choice if you’re looking for a reliable, comfortable base in Kota Kinabalu without breaking the bank.
The Klagan @ Riverson Hotel
Everything was great overall! The hotel was spotlessly clean, and the staff were very friendly. The only downside was that the pool was closed—apparently due to an unknown reason—which was a bit disappointing since my kids were really looking forward to swimming. Still, the room was comfortable, the location was convenient, and the value for money was excellent. I’d definitely stay here again and recommend it to families traveling with children.
Homesuite' Home at Riverson Soho
I can't say enough good things about my stay at Riverson Soho KK - Home Suite. From the moment I arrived, everything felt seamless and thoughtfully planned. The management sent a clear message beforehand with instructions to download and save the self-check-in PDF—reading it in advance made the process smooth and stress-free. Though there was no staff waiting to greet us personally, the setup was so intuitive that we never felt overlooked. My room was spotless, spacious, and beautifully designed with modern touches throughout. The bed was incredibly comfortable, ensuring a deep, restful sleep—truly felt like home. The on-site facilities were excellent: my car was safely parked in the reserved underground lot, and I enjoyed using the pool and gym, both well-maintained and inviting. Location-wise, this hotel is perfect. Just a short walk to The WALK, where you’ll find a great variety of dining options, and only a few minutes away from the popular IMAGO shopping mall. Whether you're here for leisure or business, this place offers convenience, comfort, and luxury all in one. I’d absolutely recommend it to anyone looking for a memorable and hassle-free stay—and I’m already planning my next visit!
MTS @ Marina Court Resort Condo
This property is absolutely fantastic—perfectly located just steps away from the Philippine Market and all the top attractions in town. The condo is clean, well-maintained, and offers great value for money. Every detail feels thoughtfully designed, from the spacious layout to the modern amenities. We had a wonderful stay and will definitely be returning. Highly recommend it to anyone visiting Kota Kinabalu!
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.
