Hotel Beach di Sabah, Malaysia

The room was quite clean. It's within walking distance to Gaya Street, Suria Sabah, and other places, as it's located in the city center. Kota Kinabalu is small, so every taxi ride seems to pass by the hotel, and it's very close to the Hilton. We checked in around midnight on the 17th, and the front desk lady was incredibly gentle and kind, providing very professional and warm service. The hotel facilities are a bit old, and the lobby had a peculiar smell, like durian or something similar, which wasn't very pleasant. However, the rooms facing the mountain were very quiet, and I slept really well. Overall, it's worth recommending, and I hope they can provide bottled water in the future.

Definitely value for money. Good location with walking distance to Imago shopping mall, Filipino market and famous restaurants nearby. Nice sea view from the room. Cleanliness of the room also above expectation. Breakfast was average but acceptable.

Facilities: Pretty good for a city hotel, very convenient for dining and shopping. Hygiene: The hygiene was excellent on the first day, but I was surprised that over a three-day stay, the room was only cleaned once. I had to request water myself, but they provided it promptly when asked. Also, the in-room safe had no battery and couldn't be used. I informed the hotel on the first day, but it was still broken when I left, so I had to carry my passport with me every day. Environment: The environment is quite nice, with its own swimming pool and clean towels available. Service: The staff were very friendly, always smiling and greeting guests. However, despite informing the front desk about the safe issue and being told it was 'OK,' no one ever came to fix it.

The location is right in the city centre. The capsule is very nice, provide better privacy and security. Toilet and bathroom are integrated, with shampoo provided. Hair dryer, water dispenser, fridge are available. Lockers are available, but the lock don't work. Consequently, all are occupied by other guests who checked in earlier. The management need to control and carry out inspection. Moreover the AC in the common hall is faulty. Please improve on these two areas. The rest are good!

I had a wonderful stay at Mapple Home. The apartment was clean, comfortable, and fully equipped with everything I needed — ironing facilities, hair dryer, microwave, fridge, TV, heater, WiFi, plates, bowls, pots, cutlery, glasses, pans, an electric stove, and a very comfortable mattress. The entire area was spotless and well-maintained. Special thanks to the host, Syafini, for being so helpful in answering all my questions and kindly allowing me to check out late at 12 pm. The sea view was absolutely beautiful and truly healing — I could enjoy the calming view of the ocean right from the bed. Overall, an excellent stay. Highly recommended!

The overall experience was okay. The soundproofing is extremely poor. You can hear every single sound from upstairs, downstairs, the hallway, and outside the window clearly and constantly inside the room. Service: On the first day, we arrived punctually at 3 PM to check in, only to be told that our room wasn't ready. We had to wait for nearly 20-30 minutes without any compensation or explanation. They also refused our request for a late check-out, which made the entire trip start off on a very unpleasant note.

We rented a two-bedroom villa. Boat transfer to the island is included in the price. The breakfasts were delicious. The villa is uniquely decorated and everything is provided: slippers, bathrobes, and separate towels for the beach and the room. The island itself is magnificent with a clean beach of white sand and turquoise sea water. During the day, many day-trippers visit, but after lunch, they leave, allowing you to enjoy a sense of oneness with nature. A special bonus for us was the absence of Wi-Fi in the rooms; it's available at the reception and in the restaurant.

The hotel room felt a bit old and small, and the bed was narrow. However, the shower pressure was great, and there was unlimited complimentary drinking water. The staff were very enthusiastic, and the public facilities were decent. Breakfast was average, with a Korean focus. The sunset bar had a lovely ambiance, and the hotel's small private beach was excellent for spotting fish. The location between the Magellan and Pacific hotels is very convenient for island hopping, as it's right next to the ferry terminal, and it wasn't crowded. The hotel offers a shuttle bus to the city center, which is very handy, and taxis are also readily available.

An exceptional 2 nights in this kid room, clean, tidy and spacious. We looked for sliding bed which combined playground and bed into one, my kids loved it so much. I would love to see washing machine in my room, we can clean clothes and dry under sunshine at balcony easily. Location was convenient when we left, only took 10 mins to airport, and around 15-20 mins to Gaya market. Swimming pool at 11th floor offered excellent view for Kota Kinabalu and regular aeroplane arrival and departure, especially at night. Note that swimming pool closed at 8pm.

This is my second stay at the Hyatt Regency Kinabalu, and the experience was excellent once again! 👍 📍 The location is absolutely perfect, right in the city center. It's a 5-10 minute walk to shopping malls and duty-free shops, and even closer to Durian Street and Gaya Street, making it super convenient for dining, shopping, and exploring. In the evenings, it's lovely to stroll to the night market or the seafront. 🛏️ I highly recommend the high-floor sea-view rooms. The views are unbeatable 🌊, and watching the sunset is breathtaking! The rooms are spacious and clean, the bedding is comfortable, and it's perfect for family trips. They even offer a complimentary extra bed, which is a thoughtful touch. 🍽️ The breakfast deserves special praise! There's a wide variety of dishes, and the freshly cooked noodles and rice vermicelli have different toppings each day – the beef and tendons are incredibly flavorful 😋. The Teh Tarik (pulled tea) is rich and aromatic, and the croissants are thin and crispy, unlike any I've had in China! The Chinese-speaking staff even help prepare the Teh Tarik, providing friendly and attentive service. 💁 The staff are always smiling, proactive, and enthusiastic. Communication in Chinese is largely seamless, making you feel right at home.
