Hotels With Bar in Sabah, Malaysia

Very clean and new. Looks like being renovated. Came here for seminar as the talk is organized inside the hotel. The location is good as it is in the center of the city. Service is good except that check in counter only have 2 and average waiting time is about 30 minutes for check in. However, maybe due to the hotel is full, our rooms are not ready when we check in at 3pm. But the hotel upgrade our room to another available unit which we will give a credit to the hotel. Breakfast is good and many variety, only the structure of the dining area is very inconvenient as the dining area too small and many corners which is not convenient to obtain the food especially for the beverage counter. The dining que line is too long due to the location where both the coffee machine are too close to each other and doesn’t not have any turning point and the coffee machine is very very slow. Suggest to change to a bigger dining area as the dining area cannot fit the number of customers especially for a seminar of 200+ people and refill is slow and we only have 1 hour lunch time where queing for food already took almost half an hour. Other than the above, I am satisfied with the hotel.

The Shangri-La Tanjung Aru Resort is an outstanding resort with exceptional service that leaves a lasting impression. Firstly, the service quality at the hotel is very high, with staff being friendly and helpful. Whether it's the reception or room service, they respond quickly to guests' needs and always with a smile. Secondly, the quality of the in-room dining is excellent. Whether it's breakfast or dinner, the food delivered to the room is not only fresh and delicious but also beautifully presented, making you feel genuinely welcome. It's particularly worth mentioning that I once accidentally left some items in the room. The hotel staff promptly contacted me and arranged to return the items quickly, which was very reassuring. However, there are a few areas where the Shangri-La Tanjung Aru Resort could improve. Firstly, the hotel's location is relatively remote, making it inconvenient to hail a taxi, especially at night or during peak hours, which can be troublesome for guests who need to go out frequently. Additionally, there are some issues with the hotel's pool facilities. The edges of the pool may be rough, and I accidentally got a cut while using the pool. I hope the hotel can address this to enhance the safety and comfort of their guests. Overall, the Shangri-La Tanjung Aru Resort remains a highly recommended accommodation choice, particularly for travelers seeking excellent service and delicious meals. If they can resolve the transportation and pool facility issues, this would be an ideal place for a relaxing and enjoyable stay.

I really enjoyed staying at cititel. The hotel is close to the food market, business area. So we can find various food around the hotel. They don't prepare a jug of boiling water, but we can use the dispenser near the lift.

Stay in Deluxe room, spacious, ample solid wood furnishing, bed, sliding wooden door curtain gave a antique warm feel, bathtub was a treat, many newer hotel wouldn't have bathtub for RM150 per night, marble bathroom floor and sinktop, looks wee b it aged but functions well. Personally for environmental friendliness, it is better to maintain quality aged furnishing in hotel rather than continuously dismantling older furnishing to change to new ones which likely to be of less quality, like no longer solid wood or marble. Lobby and breakfast area also have marble floor, lavish chandelier, wood frame walls. Breakfast though limited choice was quite tasty. Just one suggestion: please provide milk for coffee rather than just using creamer pack.

Good location from city at Gaya Street,easy for you next day go to Jesselton Point Ferry Terminal in 5min, nearby have market and shopping mall ,famous Fook Yuen Cafe for breakfast at opposite hotel ,there are Sabah souvenir for sale next to the hotel lobby,only one thing inconvenient,if rent car 🚗 driving at Sabah ,hotel no 🚫🆓 parking 🅿️ for guest,have to pay for rental Rm 30, if don’t want to use hotel parking ,outside have many parking place ,can used parking coupon for hour and after office hours at 5pm is free until the next day 8am ,hotel is good but hotel corridor was very very hot ,🥵 because of the glass ceiling,at night also cannot come out at relax enjoy night view

The only hotel in DesignHotelsTM group in Borneo island! The lobby and room design, coffee, cocktail and food quality is probably the best you'll find in Sabah and its at par with Singapore standards. The hotel doesn't just give you the environment of a design hotel, great coffee, bespoke cocktails, delicious food but it also offers true Sabahian hospitality that you will not experience anywhere else. As soon as I arrived, one of the hotel owners personally came and greeted me and spend his time to give me a tour and explain the concept of the hotel and its design. The design of the hotel is influenced by different Sabahian landscapes and local craftsmanship depicted through contemporary means. Materials and craft is all sourced locally. I had the chance to meet both the owners and their hospitality was unprecedented. They took their time to get to know me and introduce Sabah and its culture. Something that you will not experience at big chain hotels. The LUMA is a brand new hotel group. There will always be room for improvement in their services. The willingness to improve is there and they listen if you have any complaints or needs.

We loved our stay at this hotel. The staff was helpful and friendly, and the check-in and check-out process was super quick. The location is excellent. It's within walking distance of Imago, with stores and restaurants outside the hotel. The room was great. I have to say the bathroom area is spacious, but the doors are a little weird. The room was clean, and the bed and pillows were comfortable. We also had the Saturday night buffet. It so happened that the buffet was busy that night, and I think they could have prepared better, but overall, the food was fantastic! Highly recommended.

Near market and restaurant.. Easy to find halal restaurant. No Parking provided but we can buy coupon 53 cents per hour.. Room is clean and tidy. Deposit just 50 ringgit.

We stayed there for my youngest sister's convocation day. The distance from the airport is bearable and near to every attraction of Kota Kinabalu. It was a great experience staying there as the room is spacious and clean. There was an outdoor swimming pool at level 3. The lobby is spacious and is comfortable for the Grab car pick-up and drop-off service. The staff were so friendly and their customers' service were very good. I will definitely come here again.

Overall ok. Perfect location. However, there is no toothbrush, toothpaste and shoe provided as per other compatible hotel. There is no enough power point provided in the room. The aircon temperature cannot be adjusted and there is only 3 room lights in the room and it is too yellowish. Not suitable for whoever who wants to work in the room. Breakfast is reasonable. WiFi is good. Maybe the hotel need some upgrade in the future. Other than this I have no other comment.

I last stayed here back in 2011. I’m suprised to see how lovely the hotel is now. It had been fully renovated. Love the lobby and the restaurant. Didn’t manage to use the facilities there though. I shall make a return and try them out. Room was still as big as before. It’s beautiful now. Only downside was that i can never figure out how to connect my phone via Bluetooth to the TV. The bathroom was nice. Love the colours of the room and the bathroom. Room service menu is acceptable. But i have to commend. Room service is very, very fast. Asked to make up room, asked for laundry service, asked for ice and they’ll be at the door within 5-10mins. Never beyond 10mins, unlike some other hotels i’ve stayed in Singapore, KL, Penang, Istanbul, Canada, Malacca, Dubai, Nepal, New Delhi, Bali and Bandung. I am truly, very, very impressed. Check in and check out was a breeze. I will definitely stay here again in my next trip to KK. Thank you Le Meridien!

Stay in Deluxe room, spacious, ample solid wood furnishing, bed, sliding wooden door curtain gave a antique warm feel, bathtub was a treat, many newer hotel wouldn't have bathtub for RM150 per night, marble bathroom floor and sinktop, looks wee b it aged but functions well. Personally for environmental friendliness, it is better to maintain quality aged furnishing in hotel rather than continuously dismantling older furnishing to change to new ones which likely to be of less quality, like no longer solid wood or marble. Lobby and breakfast area also have marble floor, lavish chandelier, wood frame walls. Breakfast though limited choice was quite tasty. Just one suggestion: please provide milk for coffee rather than just using creamer pack.

stay for a night here (twin room- seaview). the room was great. except for the iron & the board, u hve to ask them to deliver it to ur room (they delivered it within 5mins ;)). the breakfast was great too eventho its not very variety however the taste is good. the staff also nice. oh! they have rooftop restaurant & bar as well! the ambience were nice, the staff also very friendly! however their foods wasnt tht flavorful. i ordered nasi rendang daging, aglio olio, crispy cc, grilled cc and it tastes so bland & least favorite was cheesy nachos hmmmmm:/ however it can be improved ;) i hv a great stay anyway. would ill be stayin here again? yes. would i like to go for their foood (rooftop restaurant) nope :/ but for chill absolutely yes.

Stayed here many time. Comfortable rooms and good buffet breakfast. I might got the cheapest room this round but it comes with one of the best view

Clean room. Excellent housekeeping service . suggest to have the phone line repaired ( cracking sound) , unable to have a clear conversation with the receptionist . Other than the small issue, I had an enjoyable stay at the hotel.

This hotel provides conveniences to move around town as it is located in the heart of town. Not to mention the hotel itself is very comfortable, the staff is friendly, the facility is very clean and well kept. Will definitely recommend to my friends and family.

We stayed here before but we just walked to register and check in.. The location was very good.. Near to everything you need.. Such as KFC, Watson, Guardian, restaurant nad cafe.. Especially weekend, coz there is a night market called chester night market. I have 2 suggestion for this hotel.. 1. Pest control - our food was eaten by red ants which comes out from the electric sockets (photo attached) 2. Add more parking space for hotel instead of only 1 parking space provided We was staying at the 6th floor

We back from island and booked Seafest hotel which located at the centre of Semporna town. Nearby to many facilities like restaurants and souvenir shops. Hotel has a swimming pool for kids to swim around. We have dinner at nearby seafood restaurant and the food is amazingly delicious. Thanks Seafest Hotel for the comfort stay for 3d2n.

I was here for a busniess trip and I did not spend so much time in the room. But room is clean and reception is very friendly.Overall,it is good staying here.

I visited Tawau with some trepidation. It's not a major tourist drawcard and there isn't a lot of Western-style hotels available. So I went with a hunch and chose Vista. I can say it turned out to be a real find. The Tatami King room was comfortable and spotless. The WiFi was fast and the coffee machine was perfect to get the heart started in the morning. The room is pokey but large enough to not fill cramped. The hotel is located in a shoplot district, so there was plenty of food and entertainment options. Everything was at my fingertips. And all for less than $70 per night. The staff are also very helpful and sweet. If you ever visit this hidden gem of a city, look no further than the Vista.

stayed here for second time, almost as good as my first. down side was this round's room toilet water discharge a bit slow. while showering the shower area flooded and takes few minutes to fully discharge.
