4-Star Hotels in Sabah, Malaysia

I had a pleasant stay at Promenade Hotel. The location is very convenient right in the city center, close to shopping malls, waterfront attractions, and dining options. It’s a great base for exploring Kota Kinabalu. The lobby and common areas are spacious and welcoming. My room was clean, comfortable, and well-maintained with all the basic amenities I needed. The sea view rooms are especially worth it for the sunset views over the waterfront. Breakfast offered a good variety of local and international options, though the restaurant can get quite busy during peak hours. The staff were generally friendly and helpful, and check-in/check-out was smooth. Overall, everything was good 😊😊😊

Checked in at the hotel at around 9.30pm. I noticed the air conditiong was kinda hot. But i thought to myself, I’ll give it some time run first. Maybe it’ll get better soon. Then an hour later, it was still hot, so i called operator, and she said she will send someone to our room. Waited about 30 minutes or more, still nobody came. I called the second time, and she said she’ll get someone to our room again. And that’s it, nobody came to our room, to help us with the air conditioning. And we were to tired to wait already. So My 8 month old baby sleept sweating that night and i had to fan him with the note book that they put beside the bed. Upon checkout, I complained to the receptionist and the manager about the incident, and they checked on their system that the issue had been resolved. Which was abvioustly a lie. So the manager said he will investigate the matter and he promised something to me. So i hope he keep his words. I’m a regular here, so i know there was something wrong with the air conditioning. I know the quality of the hotel. So let’s see wether the manager is serious about his words.

The check-in experience is great. The Luma Hotel team are all very friendly. Parking is available right at the entrance of the hotel for a fee of RM30 per day. They provided cold towel and welcome drink to help me freshen up after my long drive from Kundasang. The room is clean and spacious. You can view the bathtub from the bed if you open up the panels. This is great for those with kids and want to monitor them from the comfort of your bed. There is no swimming pool but this is understandable for the size of the hotel. Breakfast is decent with good spread. Not much crowd at 6am. There are 24hrs convenience stores within the same building for those who need to buy your supplies. The hotel is located near the Airport and Imago Shopping Mall. Other places of tourist attractions are also nearby if your are driving or book e-hailing services like Grab. Last but not least, I would like to thank the team for the personalised birthday card and the complimentary cake. It is truly memorable.

The whole place is good. Only the location’s smell and parking service for guest. Stinky smell comes from nearby sewerage and when the tide is low the smells comes in. On the other hand, no free parking available. Park downstairs and early in the morning being summoned as early as 8am on saturday. Other than that, all area good and nearby a foodcourts

I was initially assigned to a room with a faulty air conditioner and a door lock issue. After informing the front desk, Audrey promptly offered us a room change, which we were satisfied with. Great sea view indeed. The location is excellent — right in front of the Pasar Besar Kota Kinabalu and within walking distance to the Filipino Market and Centrepoint. Tips: 1. if you wanna buy good pepper products, just cross the road and buy from pasar besar KK 2. If you keen to have the yellow wine (黄酒）stir fried tuaran mee , just exit from Citadines side entrance and walk about 150m , there’s a shop called 1978 , the have the best laksa and tuaran mee

This four-star business hotel truly feels like a five-star experience. Its thoughtful design, comprehensive amenities, and exceptional service create a relaxing atmosphere that prepares you for any important activities in Kota Kinabalu. Located just about 10 minutes from the airport, the hotel also provides a delicious and complimentary breakfast.

I stayed at Pan Borneo Hotel and overall had a great experience. The room is big, clean and comfortable. I booked the city view & mountain view room type, and it was worth it—early in the morning you can catch a beautiful sunrise right from the window. The location is also very convenient. Surrounding the hotel, there are many shop lots, and right beside it is One Place Mall, which is perfect for shopping or grabbing a bite. If you’re taking an early flight, this hotel is a good choice as it’s only about 5–10 minutes from the airport

Automated carpark was awesome and most of the staff were courteous and attentive. Room was clean and decorated beautifully, it was waste that i didnt choose to stay another night there as i had wanted try another hotel.

Good, good, good, very good! I always thought that Semporna only had island hopping, sea resorts and town homestays. Unexpectedly, I never expected that I would live in a forest resort villa in Semporna, which was a large environment in minutes! I lived in the real nature in a second, the stilt wooden house unique to Malaysia, each room is large, clean, tidy and comfortable, and the boss said that all the best local mahogany materials in Malaysia were used! Speaking of the boss lady, I have to praise her! The boss lady is Chinese, enthusiastic, meticulous and meticulous! When you arrange your accommodation, you will set up a butler group dedicated to serving you, which will not only solve any problems for you, but also enthusiastically help you with eating, drinking and having fun in town, and help you arrange sea and other entertainment projects in town. More importantly, when you go out for island hopping, she will distribute a towel cape customized exclusively for the resort to each guest, which is quick-drying and sun-proof, so that you will not come back wet and cause a cold, meticulous and caring! When we checked in that day, we really had nothing to do in the afternoon, so the lady boss arranged a unique mangrove firefly tour for us! This is the first time I have seen groups of fireflies since I was a child. They are so beautiful. I also saw the Malaysian national treasure proboscis monkey 🐒, and experienced the ATV jungle adventure, which showed us another different beauty of Semporna! My girlfriend's hand-painted painting was done for free in the mangroves. In Kuala Lumpur, the minimum starting price for a painting is 50 Malaysian ringgits. In this attraction, it is actually: free! Free! Free! Thank you very much to the lady boss for bringing us an unforgettable journey! Finally, I want to say from the bottom of my heart: Chinese people don't cheat Chinese people ☺️☺️ Baltic Holiday Villa, sincerely recommended! Facilities: very good, new and avant-garde Hygiene: clean, tidy and comfortable Environment: large natural beauty in minutes Service: All service staff are super good, Chinese communication is barrier-free, the lady boss is meticulous, caring and meticulous!

Nice hotel near the beach and airport. The room has great space and nice view to the sea and airport. Auto parking available and in a quiet location but convenient to go to beach and town. The hotel rooftop pool and deck has a nice to the sea. You can watch the landing and takeoff of the planes too. The sound from the plane is bearable but the sound insulation can be better especially from the walkway when people walking, chatting and banging door. The amenities and cleanliness can be improved. Used bathrobes was left in the cabinet and new bathrobe was not provided. The housekeeping staff clearly omitted on this.
