    1. Strategic location which is exactly at the heart of KK city, which provides us with walkable restaurant e.g Pak haji restaurant for breakfast, souvenir shop, cafe, Malaysia memorial spot and so on. Hotel also near to Pasar Besar Kota Kinabalu (recommended to go during last day of your trip to buy Sabah's junkfoods, blue eyed anchovies, etc) and Filipina night market( nothing much here, maybe if you wanna buy bracelets, rings,etc, then you can pay a visit). 2. Spacious room for 2 people, neat, tidy, functional aircond and heat water.

    Great Pool. Spacious rooms. Views including of airport. Tv and wifi were all good. Didn’t have the breakfast so can’t comment. Staff were responsive when needed. On a side note / Don’t use the 30rm airport taxi on arrival . Just approach drivers direct ..or use grab.

    All the staff were kind, efficient and attentive. The room was as promised, large, clean, good air con, comfortable beds and, most importantly, a wonderful sea view. Plentiful daily fresh drinking water was provided in washable, refillable glass bottles, no plastic waste which is excellent. The soundproofing was good so the room was quiet. The swimming pool was a great bonus, we could swim and relax around the pool and just enjoy our luxury break after our Sabah jungle tour. Excellent all round.

    The breakfast selection was excellent. The spa (had a body massage) was amazing. The crew at Sampan bar (I think his name is Dylan) gave excellent service while we were having drinks there.

    We had a wonderful time over Christmas even though it was busy the staff were really friendly and helpful. The room was very clean and most comfortable. We enjoyed both the buffet breakfast/meals as well a as the alacarte menu, poolside meals and room service. The spa was professional, hygienic and thoroughly relaxing. Having the children's pool and water play separate from the adult pool is a bonus
