The hotel was unique in its design. The room was spacious for 3 and the interior design of the room was great. Toilet, bathroom and bathtub were separated and we had all face no problem when we need them Breakfast however was slightly below expected, the fruits were not so sweet and the cereals was a let down. It does not taste like original coco crunch and corn flakes. But other than that other food were okay for hotel level. On the service, all the staff there were excellent and I had a wonderful stay throughout and ya they do also provide laugage storage in case you have a later flight. It could have been awesome shall there be swimming pool available which were allowed for homestay residence only But overall, I do love this hotel in terms of their service and design. .

This is our 3rd stay at Sky Hotel. We booked a 2-bedroom suite and checked in at night, but unfortunately the room was not clean. There was dust and powder on the sofa, the floor was sticky and dusty, some flooring was chipped, and there was an unpleasant smell. We called reception to request a room change but were told the hotel was full. Housekeeping came to check and confirmed the room condition. We took some photos and went down to the reception counter, after discussingabout 10 minutes, the reception offered us an upgrade to a bigger suite, which was clean and much better. Appreciate the staff for resolving the issue quickly, but the room cleanliness should be improved.

Absolutely loved this hotel! It was originally hard for three of us to find a suitable place, and we were considering Airbnbs, but then I stumbled upon their three-bedroom apartment and immediately booked it. We were so pleasantly surprised when we walked in; it was definitely the best hotel of our trip!

It was great and convenient stay. The parking were quite hustled a bit (because the hotel were connected to the mall i guess), except if you added 50/15myr per day for the valet parking. The room were better compared to those other legend hotels in Tawau; the floor carpet bit dirty and furniture quite oldies. The tv were working fine. The toilet were average; not to dirty but not too clean also. Toiletries were okay BUT they don’t provide toothbrush. Hm. Also we got the room that were strategically behind the aircond blower of the mall. The room soundproof quite decent; you can still hear people talking when they were at the hallways. The mall behind got lot of shop; stalls, restaurant, saloon, cinema, massage parlour and at night, you can also enjoy a street food market 4 minutes by walking on the other side of the hotel. So far we enjoyed the stay here. The staffs were varies; some were good; some maybe tired or just lazy, idk but checkin and out process were smooth.

The hotel was clean and well-maintained, and the sea-view room offered beautiful views. However, the room faced a busy street, resulting in significant noise from motorcycles and traffic, which affected the overall stay. Another downside was the elevator outage. After a long wait, I had to walk down 19 floors using the stairs. The hotel could have addressed the issue more quickly to minimize the inconvenience and impact on guests.

The room was really clean, I forgot to take pictures. It was quiet at night and felt very safe. There are many restaurants and convenience stores downstairs. It's very close to Gaya Street and the DBKK jetty, about a 5-minute taxi ride. Every room has a floor-to-ceiling window with direct views of the jetty and the sea, as shown in the pictures – both the daytime views and the sunset are beautiful. Kota Kinabalu is the most convenient and comfortable city I've visited so far; it's very beautiful and chill. The host was also very nice and patient in answering my questions. This is the best and most worthwhile hotel I've ever picked, the value for money is truly unbeatable!

Highly recommend this place! The accommodation is clean and tidy, almost all basic amenities are provided, and they even offer mineral water and a toothbrush/toothpaste – so thoughtful! As soon as you open the door, you're greeted by a stunning ocean view! This sea view is unbeatable; waking up to the ocean right in front of you is incredibly comfortable! It’s just a 2-minute walk downstairs to the pier next door, making island hopping super convenient! The location of JQ is excellent, making it easy to get around by taxi! A truly wonderful stay! I'll definitely book this place again next time I visit. The host is very responsive and quickly resolves any issues! Highly recommended! 👍👍👍

This was my first trip to Sabah, and I booked this hotel with my family for the last day of our vacation. Although it’s quite far from the city area, the environment was nice and comfortable. However, on the night we stayed, there was a power outage for the first time I’ve ever experienced in a hotel. The hotel staff did not inform us at all. After waiting for about an hour, we called the front desk and were told that the whole area had no electricity, not just the hotel. They also couldn’t confirm when the power would be restored, which was really frustrating 🙄 Luckily, the kids were already tired from playing all day and continued sleeping. The electricity finally came back after around 3 hours. Overall, the hotel was comfortable, and the pineapple buns provided in the morning were super delicious 👍my kids like it😋

Dear Management of Grandis Hotel Kota Kinabalu, I am writing to express my sincere gratitude to the duty manager and the bellman during our stay. My son injured his foot and could not walk easily. The duty manager Tracy J kindly helped us change to a suitable room, and the bellman warmly assisted and escorted my son into the room with great care. Your team thoughtful and compassionate service relieved our stress at that difficult moment and made us feel safe and welcomed. We truly appreciate your professionalism and kindness. Thank you again!!

CChanger YipI chose this hotel because it's the closest to the beach with the best views, perfect for sunset watching, and indeed, the sunsets were spectacular! It's also very close to the airport. The room had a fantastic view. While the facilities felt a bit dated, it didn't detract from the overall vacation vibe. There's an ice machine on every floor, which was great for drinks. The heated pool was a nice touch, and the breakfast restaurant was huge with a wide variety of options. Because it's so large, getting from the Tanjung wing to the lobby was a bit of a walk. Also, on the fourth floor, the roof can slightly obstruct wide-angle photos. Overall, it offered a wonderful resort experience, and finding the hotel for Grab pickups was easy.

KKT5009Don't book during the rainy season, don't book during the rainy season, don't book during the rainy season. It's from Sep to Feb. I said 3 times it's important if you don't wanna ruin your holiday. We booked 3D2N in mid Sep. Our holiday turned out to be a staycation nightmare in the resort. We can't do all the water activities neither the jungle trekking. The water heater in our room is not working, we have to shower with shivering cold water in this kind of weather. Lots of big size anta inside the room crawling from the bathroom to the bedroom. Make sure you cleaned up for your snacks and drinks, tie up the garbage bag if you don't want these insects to come to your bed, There is also a landslide happening on our first night, luckily we are not affected as we stayed in the ocean villa. There is only one restaurant in this resort, food prices are the same as SG restaurant pricing, no cheap option here. In room dining needs to pay RM25 extra. Staff service is good but this cannot cover the several run down part of the resort.

NNero0919Perfect Getaway! This hotel on Mantanani Island, Kota Kinabalu, is an absolute gem! It's simply divine! I specifically came to Kota Kinabalu for Mantanani Island's crystal-clear waters, and I chose the Mantanani Hotel in advance. After staying there, I just had to give it five stars! The location is absolutely stunning. Step out, and you're on a soft, white sand beach. Open the balcony door, and you're greeted by the jelly-blue ocean. Waking up to the sound of waves every day was incredibly therapeutic. We booked a sea-view room; it was clean and spacious, the mattress had just the right firmness, and the shower water pressure was perfectly stable. There was no cramped feeling, which can often be the case with island hotels. I have to praise the service! The front desk staff were incredibly enthusiastic. They pre-arranged our island transfers and even proactively recommended snorkeling spots and delicious local snacks. They were always responsive and efficient. The hotel breakfast was also a pleasant surprise – freshly baked waffles with fresh mango, and freshly made Teh Tarik. The taste was absolutely spot on. In the afternoon, I relaxed on a hotel beach chair, enjoying the sea breeze, and in the evening, I had a barbecue at the hotel restaurant under the stars. The pace was wonderfully slow and comfortable – exactly the island vacation vibe I was looking for. If you're coming to Mantanani Island, I honestly recommend staying here. The experience is so much better than a day trip. I'll definitely stay here again on my next visit to Kota Kinabalu! Are you planning a trip to Mantanani Island soon? Would you like me to write another short review in a different style, suitable for social media?

GGuest UserWe chose the Ocean Wing room type, and the room was very spacious. The bathtub had a great ambiance. The overall service at the hotel was excellent, and the breakfast was delicious. The environment inside was beautiful, with complete facilities and many activities, including sunset paddleboarding. Plus, it wasn't overly crowded, so you didn't get that 'people-packed' feeling. It's perfect for a relaxing holiday and very unwinding.

GGuest UserOur private family stayed here for 4 nights from the first day of our Kota Kinabalu trip, and we are sincerely grateful for the wonderful service and warm welcome we received. In particular, the front desk service was excellent. They not only answered our questions accurately and empathetically, but they also went above and beyond, handling issues that might not typically fall under their duties with incredible attention to detail. Thank you very much. The facilities show their age but are well-maintained. The location is also very convenient, within walking distance to A Street, and you can easily walk to supermarkets, convenience stores, a laundromat, and even grab some light snacks. The parking was also very convenient; once our license plate was registered, we could enter and exit as many times as we wanted. Although the capacity wasn't huge, we never had trouble finding a spot during our 4-night stay. The hotel breakfast was delicious, and the menu varied slightly each day. The only regrettable point was that the male floor manager, or whoever was in charge of the breakfast area, seemed to lack a bit of respect for women and children. (For example, after my husband went back to the room, he bumped into my daughter's chair without a word, and then started giving loud instructions to the staff right next to our table, which we found a bit bothersome.)

YYann_zhaoAlthough the room rate dropped on the day of check-in, making it two thousand cheaper than my original booking, I contacted customer service and they immediately refunded the difference. Overall, the hotel is pretty good. I swam for three days. Honestly, the breakfast didn't quite meet Marriott's usual standards. The pleasant surprise was finding out I had a partial sea view room.

AAye_AkiraStayed here with family and overall had a pleasant experience, especially considering the competitive pricing. The room itself was excellent — very clean, spacious, and well prepared. The hotel followed our requests properly regarding the extra bed and breakfast arrangements, which made the stay much smoother for the family. Basic amenities were provided including shampoo, conditioner, slippers, toothbrush and toothpaste. We could not find a shower cap initially, but it seems it can be requested from the front desk. Breakfast was decent, though nothing particularly extraordinary. The resort offers quite a lot of fun activities and there were many families and local tourists during our stay, probably because of the holiday season. The view around the property was also very nice. In terms of design, the hotel feels somewhat similar to the neighbouring Shangri-La Rasa Ria, although naturally at a much lower price point, which makes it quite attractive value-wise. A few things to note: the road leading to the hotel was quite dark and a little confusing at night. There is also not much happening in the immediate vicinity after dark, so having your own transport is highly recommended. Since the hotel is rather far out, getting a Grab ride might be difficult at times. Thankfully, parking was ample for those driving. One small downside was that while the room cleanliness was top notch, the outdoor corridors had quite a lot of leaves, bugs, and dust. Being a resort surrounded by nature, this is somewhat understandable, but still noticeable. Overall, a good value family resort stay with spacious clean rooms, nice scenery, and plenty of activities, especially if you are travelling with your own vehicle 👍🏻
