"The facilities are indeed quite old; the corners of the tables and cabinets are worn and shabby. The hygiene was just so-so. I compared it to another Hyatt Centric, which had higher ratings but wasn't as close to the sea as this one. I came specifically for the sea view and asked the front desk in advance to reserve a high-floor sea view room. The view was slightly inferior to the sea view B&B I stayed at previously, but still acceptable. The sink design is unfriendly; I felt like I was going to fall into the basin. I highly recommend the breakfast – the variety is amazing. Make sure to leave plenty of time in the morning to savor it slowly. A happy day starts with breakfast, haha!"

Hotel near Kota Kinabalu City Center,Kota Kinabalu
Hyatt Centric Kota Kinabalu is the first Hyatt Centric hotel in Southeast Asia, offering intrepid explorers the ideal launchpad into Sabah and its abundant natural beauty and indigenous cultures with its prime location in the coastal city’s downtown area. Crowned with a double-edged infinity rooftop swimming pool, a duplex dining destination ON22 restaurant and ON23 Sky Bar with stunning sunset views, and a 24-hour fitness centre, the hotel features spacious guestrooms and suites with floor-to-ceiling windows and a private balcony overlooking the bustling city or lush green hills. Connecting guests to the heart of the action, Hyatt Centric Kota Kinabalu is within walking distance to shopping malls, local cafes, entertainment and the Jesselton Point Ferry Terminal from which guests can embark on island-hopping adventures. The Sabah International Convention Centre and Likas Sports Complex are a five-minute drive from the hotel, while the Kota Kinabalu international Airport is within a 15-minute drive.

"The hotel facilities are comparable to a typical Ji Hotel in China, but its location is absolutely fantastic! It's perfect for dining, shopping, and buying souvenirs. There are durian shops, coconut ice cream shops, apple juice stands, and bak kut teh restaurants all around. For breakfast, make sure to order from the staff directly; don't just stick to the self-service section. The à la carte options are all delicious and offer local specialties. I still recommend staying here. You could easily stay for two nights: one day for eating, drinking, and shopping, and another for island hopping (the hotel is very close to the pier, within walking distance)."

"This place seriously blew me away. Located above Imago mall and styled like a high-end hotel, the room felt ultra-luxurious from the moment I walked in. Yes, it’s on the pricier side — but you can see and feel where the money goes. Every detail screams premium: a Dyson hairdryer, thick and fluffy slippers, electronic blinds, touch-control lighting, and a stunning bathtub that instantly sets the mood for a relaxing stay. The design is sleek, modern, and Instagram-worthy in every corner. What truly sets this place apart is the generosity in amenities. Instead of the standard small bottled water, they provide 1500ml drinking water, plus free-flow drinking water and soft drinks to enjoy anytime. Even the Starbucks cups added a classy, thoughtful touch that made the stay feel extra special. On top of all that, parking is provided, making it incredibly convenient — especially with the mall right downstairs. This isn’t just a place to sleep — it’s an experience. If you love luxury, comfort, and those little details that make you say “wow”, this place absolutely delivers."

Hotel near Kota Kinabalu City Center,Kota Kinabalu
A luxurious destination for vacationers and business travelers alike, Sheraton Kota Kinabalu offers an elevated haven of relaxation, wellbeing, and timeless sophistication. Occupying a lofty position in one of Borneo's tallest towers, our hotel is ideally placed within the vibrant heart of Kota Kinabalu. Many of the city's top attractions are within walking distance, including Gaya Street Sunday Market and Centre Point Sabah, while Tanjung Aru Beach is just a short drive away. Sheraton Kota Kinabalu is curated with 307 elegant guest rooms and suites, each blending spacious dimensions with contemporary comforts. Our hotel features a collection of dining options, showcasing delicious cuisine to suit every taste, while crafted cocktails are savored with sunset views at the rooftop bar. Experience world-class wellness at the Shine Spa, followed by a fitness center workout or a swim. There are also tasteful event spaces for hosting exceptional functions, from destination weddings to meetings, galas, and more.

"The hotel's cleaning service was very sloppy. The room was supposedly cleaned while I was out getting food, but when I came back, the trash on the floor hadn't been picked up. I stayed for three nights, and they didn't replace the slippers unless I called the front desk – I've never encountered that before. The service was also quite poor. I wouldn't say it was good or bad, but definitely indifferent. The first room we checked into was dirty, both the table and the floor, and the air quality was terrible. We were later moved to another room, which they called a complimentary upgrade (though it didn't really matter), and the air was noticeably better there. As for soundproofing, we were on the 17th floor, and there was basically no soundproofing at night. We could clearly hear the traffic downstairs and people singing during the day. I don't understand why they don't use soundproof windows these days? Overall, the stay was very unsatisfactory, and I'd say quite disappointing. The hotel's location is decent; it's 20 minutes to the airport, and the main streets are within walking distance, but they're all tourist traps, which was a letdown."

"It's already 2026, and they're still using these old-fashioned hairdryers that don't even reach far – they're so hard to use. And the air conditioning was so hot that I woke up seven times in one night. I basically suffered from insomnia for the two days I stayed there. The hygiene, however, was quite good. But I do have a small suggestion: when cleaning the room, please check if the shampoo and other amenities are sufficient and need refilling. Otherwise, guests won't have anything to use when they shower! 😵💫😵💫 Everything else was fine, really good. ❤️❤️"

"I originally booked a twin room and was worried about getting one facing the construction site. Upon arrival, the hotel informed me that the twin room was unavailable and upgraded me to a suite, which was very spacious. The swimming pool and splash area for kids were great; we pretty much spent the whole first day at the hotel. Breakfast was decent, nothing spectacular but perfectly fine. Overall, I'm quite satisfied. I just wonder when the construction next door will be finished; it should be even better once it's done. The VR attendant inside was very enthusiastic; my child even went over time, but he still let them have another round."

"The location is excellent, just a short walk to popular eateries like Shuang Tian, Da Jia Lai, and Tian Xia Ke. I usually don't book breakfast when I reserve a hotel, but I saw a special deal this time and many people raved about the variety, so I decided to try it. There was indeed a good selection, and I especially enjoyed the hot noodles from the noodle station. Oh, one thing I wasn't happy with was the elevator's scent – it was way too strong. I had to hold my breath every time I went in. Could you perhaps choose a more subtle fragrance?"

"Я в восторге от этих апартаментов!! Сопровождение менеджером началось за неделю до поездки: заранее со мной связались в WA и направили подробные инструкции по заселению. Нюанс: нет платного раннего заселения, но при наличии свободных комнат могут принять раньше. Номер просто wow, есть все для проживания, если б ты приехал в одних шортах)) - все туалетные принадлежности, крем для рук и одноразовые шампуни L’Occitane, маска для сна, беруши, зонтик или дождевик и всякие нужные мелочи. В общем коридоре стоит холодильник в кока-колой, спрайтом и пр, питьевой воды - сколько хочешь! В самом номере и кружки Старбакс, и фен Дайсон с классными насадками. Ремонт свежий: прямо глаз радуется свежей затирке между кафелем!! 😁 Нюанс: мне одной было тесно. Так, далее: территория как в небольшом турецком отеле: 2 бассейна, спорт зал, баскетбольная площадка, детская площадка, прогулочные зелёные дорожки. Но не лежаков для загара, и как будто здесь не принято лежать у бассейна, хотя менеджер сказал мне, чтоб могу загоратт на здоровье. Расположение удобное! Рядом очень много кафе и ресторанов, аппарты находятся в самом Торговом центре (там кстати и обменник есть на минус 1м). Резюмирую: настоятельно рекомендую, а внимание к нюансам, потому что я опытный турист."

The water in the hotel's area is heavily polluted; it's so dirty that snorkeling is completely out of the question! The front desk staff were very perfunctory with guest requests and didn't follow through on promises. In the morning, we requested a private boat tour for island hopping and snorkeling. We discussed the time and itinerary with the dive center staff and finalized the price with the front desk. We even altered our subsequent travel plans for this. However, by 4 PM, we still hadn't received confirmation. When we called the front desk, they told us they couldn't arrange it. We asked several people, and got different explanations: first they said there were no boats, then that other guests had already been arranged for island hopping, and then that there would be a storm the next day (which turned out to be perfectly calm). I suggest the hotel improve its island hopping service. For those looking to dive, definitely don't consider this hotel! Also, the beach is incredibly tiny, barely palm-sized!

The staff friendliness is just amzing 10/10. Excellent Service.Our room had amazing view of the sea and opposite resort called Gayana. Dinner: Only Buffet option is available and its about RM167/person +taxes. The spread are fairly good and it is delicious. Though they do have 2 more different Restaurant in the island,Japanese and fine dining. Breakfast: Included in the room price. Menu changes daily. I have nothing to complaint about the room,for us its comfortable.All rooms have exactly the dane Designs the only difference is where it is located. You are paying for the view. Activities: For me I think 3 days 2 nights are perfect to spend your time here, swimming by the pool,kayaking,snorkling,Jungle trekking, visiting the private beach. 1 hour complimentary use of snorklinh masks. I like the public guests showers and towel provided.Very convinient. One thing that I would like to comment is the boat fees are relatively very expansive.15 mins speedboat per person one way cost about Rm80+taxes..Just return trip cost RM170++ per person. This is not even including island conservation fees and tourist fees. All this added fees makes the Hotel cost more expansive. Because a boat trip to nearby or same Island cost only Rm40. GAYANA ECO RESORT provided inclusive/complimentary return boat fees. I hope the Management can improve this because we as Guests are going to spend more money on F&B and at the Bar. Last but not least I would like to compliment the service and staffs in thsi Resort I think they did such an amazing job. Overalö the Resort is beautiful andclose to the nature.

The scenery is unbelievably beautiful, every photo is a masterpiece. The hotel is huge and the breakfast is delicious. There's also a free shuttle bus to the airport and city center; check the last picture for the schedule. This is the most recommended hotel in Kota Kinabalu! Super value for money! Highly recommended! It's just a bit far from the city center, but you can take a taxi. The hotel's location is a bit secluded, but it doesn't detract from its beauty.

First off, the room was spacious and had a small balcony; swimwear and other items would air dry overnight. Secondly, the pool was huge, perfect for both adults and kids to enjoy water activities without leaving the hotel. There's also a small segregated area in the natural sea where kids can snorkel. Magellan Jetty is right within the hotel, so you can sleep in, then head out for island hopping and snorkeling, and still catch a same-day tour. It's great for relaxing, especially if you haven't made prior arrangements. I personally love this kind of resort-style hotel. While the hotel's drainage and shower systems might not be the latest models, the water pressure is excellent, and there's a continuous supply of hot water. I was too lazy to move hotels and repack, so I stayed here for all three nights. The average price was 1400 RMB per night, though room types affect the price.

A fantastic stay and a perfect resort and team. Only issues are 1) plastic from sea, nothing they can do about it but it affects enjoyment, 2) we had a minor issue with housekeeping not coming and then coming when it was dark and letting a lots of bugs in the room (we had been careful to avoid that). Honestly amazing value and a great time though!

How do I put it? It wasn't particularly outstanding. I was originally torn between the Hyatt Centric and The Magellan Sutera, but once I arrived, I realized the Marriott is essentially in the middle ground between the two, both in terms of location and hotel type. The Hyatt Centric is downtown with numerous eateries right downstairs, while The Magellan Sutera is more of a secluded beach resort. The Marriott is in between, so it doesn't quite excel at either. It's true that there are motorcycles revving down the street if you have a city view, but it didn't really affect my sleep. It's also under the flight path, but there weren't many planes at night. To the south, there's a Bataras supermarket, and their pomelos are highly recommended this season. Further south is Imago. The area directly downstairs from the hotel itself is a bit desolate. The infinity pool on the 8th floor is decent, but there are no changing rooms.

First, we gathered at the jetty, and then the second picture shows the bus taking us back to Tawau Airport from Semporna. It was fantastic; I'm so glad I chose this. The value of this long-standing five-star hotel keeps increasing. The service was excellent, and extra meals were served promptly. The buggy service was also very quick. The underwater scenery was even more vibrant and colorful. The sunset was also beautiful. There were so many sea turtles, we encountered them everywhere, along with manta rays and various schools of fish. It was breathtaking. I'll definitely go again if I have the chance. I've already recommended it to my friends!
