Top Kota Kinabalu Intl. Hotel Reviews

Pan Borneo Hotel Kota Kinabalu

10/10 Excellent

"The complimentary airport shuttle (one-way only) was very useful along with the breakfast buffet. Definitely worth staying if you do not want to go island hopping or to the city centre"

The LUMA Hotel - A Member of Design Hotels

8/10 Good

"Great location near the airport and Imago shopping mall, also right out the front door lots of options for food and snacks. Room was really nice and spacious and bathroom was modern with large shower with great water pressure. Everything was very clean. Bed was ok, too hard for my liking. It was a bit of a maze and a little confusing to get from lobby to ur room and back again. Was great for one night stop over and would stay again. Definitely check it out."

10/10 Excellent

"The Regis was perfect for our 3 night stay in KK. Virtual front desk through WhatsApp was very responsive to all inquiries and the on site staff was extremely helpful. The location next to the Imago Mall was also quite convenient for anything we need plus ehailing to different spots in KK."

The Pacific Sutera Hotel

8/10 Good

"A lovely hotel by the waterfront with an amazing view of yachts and the islands. All meals are in the buffet restaurant that provides a huge choice of local dishes and some international food. There is a tiny bar by the waterfront that serves simple food in the evenings. Excellent service staff and ambience. The hotel is just 15 minutes from the airport and 10 minutes to shopping malls, served by the hotel's free shuttle bus. Grab to the city is easy to get and inexpensive. Very convenient location. A hassle-free stay at this lovely hotel."
