A stunning hotel, the pool, gym and sauna are modern and spotless. Our room was upgraded and was spacious and maintained beautifully. We loved the waterfall shower and huge bed. We got room service and didn’t expect much but the vegan burger was hot and so tasty. Just the luxury we needed after climbing Mount Kinabalu!

The property was comfortable, spacious and clean. The neighborhood was quiet. Host was very responsive and friendly. It was very convenient as it was above a shopping mall with easy access to the mall. Taxi drop off and pick up was just outside the lobby door. Easy access to the pool, gym and gardens. Nice view of the garden. Kitchen facilities were ample.

Excellent location within walking distance to eateries, malls and the jetty for island-hopping. Staff were exceptionally warm and hospitable - 5 stars to them! The pool was a great place to unwind on a humid afternoon. The view from the café was just perfect, overlooking the sea. Would definitely return the next time I'm in KK.
