The Empire Brunei - Photo Gallery

Our stay at The Empire Hotel was truly exceptional! The room was very spacious and comfortable, and the service was top-notch. A special mention to Lynn (or Ann—I may have gotten the name wrong) (she was the one driving the buggy in the pic) who was always smiling, friendly, and very accommodating with all our questions. As first-time visitors to Brunei, this experience exceeded our expectations. We were also impressed by the warmth and respectfulness of the people. We enjoyed the in-house cinema and had an amazing meal at Pantai, the food was perfect! they will also say where to have your best sunset/ sunrise view. Thank you to all the staff for making our stay so memorable. Highly recommended to friends and family!

📍Day 3 | 1st June 2025, Sunday The Empire Brunei 🇧🇳 After all the walking yesterday, today was all about rilexing in style—and what better place than the legendary Empire Brunei? ✅ And yes—it absolutely lived up to the hype. 😍 This place is more than just a hotel. It's basically its own little kingdom. Here’s what they offer: 🏀 Full country club (basketball, squash, badminton, table tennis, pools 🎱) 🏊♂️ Indoor swimming pools & jacuzzis 🏖️ Private beaches & lagoons 🚴♀️ Kayaks & bicycles 🎥 On-site cinema 👶 Kids Club 🍽️ 4 Restaurants ⛳ Golf course 🚙 Buggy rides everywhere (the place is huge!) We booked a Dart ride from Jubilee Hotel and arrived around 11AM. Although check-in was supposed to be at 2PM, we were warmly greeted by Hafiz at the front desk. He invited us to explore the facilities while we waited. Then… surprise! Our room was ready by 12PM and we even got a free upgrade to the Ocean King Sea View Room. Influencer perks? Maybe 😎 (Just kidding 😂). Thank you, Empire Brunei! A buggy took us straight to our room—and wow, it was huge, luxurious, and the sea view was something else. 🌊 Lunch was at Pantai Restaurant. My son loves the mini burgers 🍔 while we enjoyed the ocean breeze and relaxed atmosphere. Afterwards, we wandered the lobby and took in the stunning architecture—those iconic golden pillars are a masterpiece. 🏛️ After prayers, we changed into sport/swimwear and headed to the Country Club. I jumped into a pickup basketball game with two lads from the UK while wifey and my son relaxed in the indoor pool and jacuzzi nearby. 🏀🛁 Later, we visited the Kids Club— My son splashed happily while we took a breather. Just before sunset, we found a quiet spot outside. Brunei’s sunset? Absolutely underrated. 🌅 To wrap up the day, we stayed in for dinner (room service KA dendeng 😅). FYI, you need to put down a deposit to order room service. We were way too tired to head out again anyway. Rating? Empire Brunei = ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (7 stars, obviously 😂) Truly a 10/10 experience—elegant, peaceful, and unforgettable. Feeling recharged and grateful.

The hotel is really big and the staff are very good service mind and friendly. Better than I was expected . The room is better than the photo while I was booking.

This is a premium hote, with high levels of service. The staff are friendly and happy to help. Brunei is a call and peaceful location to take a rest and the beds at the Empire are some of the most comfortable I've ever slept in. (We accidentally napped for quite a long time here) The food at the hotel restaurant 'Pantai' is good, but not great value.

Service is perfect and employees are very kind. I strogly recommend you this hotel. But facility is little bit old

Nice place to stay a whole day.When you go to the hotel,you should use taxi app,Dart.I wait a bus but it didn’t appear 1 hour. I gave up to use the bus and call taxi on the app.You can call a taxi from the hotel but it is more expensive than dart app.

I stayed at the hotel for two nights. Everything was impressive. Must try the breakfast.

Fantastic sunset and sunrise views. Stayed at Ocean View Block and thus enjoy nice sea views during the stay. Very spacious room, with little Pail and brush and washing powder and drying rack is provided at balcony. Microwave oven and good free mini bar which is replenished everyday. Lots of facilities like bowling, ball games, cinema etc. Polite and helpful staff. Food wise is average.

The hotel is the whole resort. They got beautiful swimming pool, cinema, theater, restaurant, golf club. The room is very spacious and the view to the sea from the balcony is amazing. Breakfast is very delicious a lot of varieties. The service is perfect and stuff is very friendly. Just notice that the hotel doesn’t serve any alcohol😅 And it’s a little cold in the room and you can’t control the temperature.
