"Honestly, it was the little things. The room was simple but super clean. The bed was way more comfortable than I expected. The staff were genuinely friendly, not the fake kind.

YYS JaysWe celebrated our 32nd wedding anniversary with a road trip from Brunei to Kota Kinabalu. For the first two nights, we stayed at Shangri-La Tanjung Aru, and on the final night, we decided to try The Klagan Hotel before heading back to Brunei. We booked the Atrium Room with a double/full bed and breakfast for two.
Upon arriving around 3 pm to check in, we were informed that our reserved room was not yet ready, though a room with two single beds was available. Since this was our honeymoon getaway, we insisted on the Atrium Room with a double bed. After heading out for dinner, we returned, only to be told—almost 8 PM—that the room with the double bed was still not ready or available.
However, Fahmi at the reception was extremely polite and understanding. He made every effort to ensure that our reserved room was prepared as soon as possible, even though bath towels were unavailable at the time and only provided the following morning! Haha. Despite that, we appreciated Fahmi’s efficient service—thank you, Fahmi!
The beds were incredibly comfortable, and the room was so quiet that we slept like babies. The hotel was clean and well-maintained, conveniently located near markets, spa, shopping malls, eateries, cafes, and the waterfront’s Anjung Senja seafood restaurant area. We would definitely stay here again when visiting Kota Kinabalu.

AAnonymous UserThe room was suites for two person and the receptionist was really helpful and friendly. Would love to stay in here again in another trip. The price was also reasonable due to strategic locations in gaya street. Lots of new cafes and restaurants, also near suria sabah mall and kk plaza.

WWONG TIEN FUIUpon checking in, hotel was kind enough to grant the request (done during booking time) for higher floor rooms with good view.
Great location - near Gaya Street, Jesselton Ferry Point, Suria & Wisma Merdeka Malls, restaurants, Handicraft Market, etc.
Room with good bed, 4 pillows (2 hard pillows & 2 soft pillows). Complimentary 2 bottled water & 2 3-in-1 coffee sachets. Electric water kettle, bar fridge, TV, etc.
Slight complaints -
1. rooms adjacent to main road can be quite noisy at night due to zooming passing vehicles,
2. sink that is slight blocked
3. No wifi
4. Shower gel should be changed to shower liquid (proned to get stucked in the given small plastic bottle container)

GGuest UserI already searched hotel in Kota Kinabalu centre. But I got the one 30 minutes away from city with same name Tang Hotel in city centre.
Overall the stay n the front desk are great.
NNadiah7The room we bought was spacious enough for 3 of us. Although it looks like an old hotel with outdated wallpapers, but we love the staff is very attentive to our requests, basic amenities were enough inclusive of pantry items. Since we got the highest level (L13), we get a magnificient view of the city.

PPrisca EMy stay at this hotel was underwhelming. Basic amenities were lacking, no toothbrush, no hand tissues (only toilet paper), no slippers, and no shower cap. They only provided two large towels, with no hand or face towels. The TV was nearly useless with just two available channels.The lighting was also poor; there was no main room light, only two dim lights behind the bed, which made the room feel dark and uninviting.
For the price, there are definitely better options out there that offer more comfort and convenience.
