Lovely small boutique hotel-style residence. They have 6 rooms in total, each newly renovated, clean, modern, and full of high-quality amenities (toiletries, slippers, tea etc.). Comfy bed and large rain-shower. Staff were wonderful and helpful: we booked last minute and they were able to help us immediately! Location close to good seafood restaurants and quite central.

FAQs about hotels in Kota Kinabalu

Tropical Paradise in East Malaysia

Kota Kinabalu (KK) is the capital of the East Malaysian state of Sabah on the island of Borneo. It features white-sand beaches, tropical rainforests and the outer lying coral reefs and islands of the Tunku Abdul Rahman (TAR) Marine Park, a haven for scuba divers.

Occupied by the Japanese and heavily bombed during World War II by the British, some remnants of this colonial era remain in the Atkinson Clock Tower and Signal Hill Observatory, with its sweeping view of the coast.

Tanjung Arn is KK’s most popular public beach and secluded northern beaches like Karambunai and Dalit have resorts dotted along the coast.

Kota Kinabalu Harbour hosts international cruise ships and the KK Waterfront is a popular place with many bars. The KK Handicraft Market is your chance to grab a nice souvenir to take home.

Mount Kinabalu is Malaysia’s highest mountain at 4,101 metres. This highly important ecological region contains rare fauna and flora and makes a good day trip from the capital.

A variety of hotels on Booking.com are centred around Kota Kinabalu International Airport, the city centre and islands.

Ladies, Stay away from this property.

Ladies, Stay away from this property. The staffs & outsiders gang upon female travelers by video tapping & taking pictures at swimming pool or anywhere other places inside the hotel. There is no security. Anybody can come in and roam around the hotel. It is massive 35 stories building with many units with any security guards. This property should not be on booking.com or any other websites that take responsibility of their clients. This is not a single incident or moment of bitterness, there were other complaints from other female travelers but they didn’t nothing to prevent it, other than try make lame excuses for their stuffs. it’s a organized crime to attack on female travelers. The Pinstayplus doesn’t have any employees . It looks like they do not exist other than WhatsApp massages. It is only Bay Suits staffs who are there. There is no lock for the door, only a pincode ( you aren’t allowed to change the pincode) that anyone can use it to enter the room. I reported to booking.com and the local police. The local police told me that this is not a crime in Mylaysia. They spoke to each other over the phone when I was at the police station. They had good laughs about the situation. I don’t know what was worse the crime or the police attitude!

Before we went, I was told to be careful in KK as it may not be safe. However, we met wonderful strangers who reached out to help my wheelchair bound dad without us asking. I was very touched by their gesture. This was the best part of the trip. Pekan Nabalu is a nice place to catch Mt Kinabalu. The temperature was a nice cool 22 deg. We booked a driver, Ajib who drove us there and to the Desu Dairy Farm and the alpaca farm. Getting around KK is easy by Grab.

Good location for snorkeling and fishing trips. Lovely islands to visit fir swimming. Easy access with the ferries. Best place for western pub food and glass of cold wine was Shoneys bar and grill Best island for snorkeling was Mengalum but one and half hours by boat.

Kota Kinabalu is a beautiful city with amazing waterfront views, friendly locals, and plenty of nice cafes and seafood restaurants. It’s a great place to relax and explore nature. However, I found the food prices to be higher than expected — generally pricier than in Penang or Kuala Lumpur. Other than that, it was an enjoyable trip and I’d love to visit again someday.

It is an exotic city, offer many experience, it was nice to have the blend of a city but yet you can watch the fishing boats coming back to shore from their catch and visitors taking speed boats to island opposite KK, if you unit is sea facing, you can see this at your balcony while sipping away coffee,teas, fruit juice or even beers

The facilities and the natural beauty at the hotel were excellent. The breakfast was scrumptious with many varieties. Staff from every aspect were so pleasant. We could tell they were consistently trained to meet high standards. Garden wing bathroom was old. One would expect a 5 star shangri la to at least have an updated bathroom. The tub/shower combo was something we normally find in a 3 star hotel…but it was clean and the shower water pressure was good so it didn’t really bother us for a one night stay

This hotel is very conveniently located on Gaya Street, with plenty of food options nearby and not far from Suria, Jesselton Ferry, and the night markets. Sure, you can grab a ride, but it’s only a 10-15 minute walk.
