Mercure: Superior Room with a View

Located at the edge of Jalan Gaya, Mercure Kota Kinabalu is really a strategic hotel to be at when visiting KK. We used this as a base for a weekend and it was perfect 🤩 for visiting Gaya Street Market and the cafes & restaurants at Jalan Dewan. The beds are comf. Air conditioning and hot water work like charms. TV channels may be a little limited and the volume on the TV seems a bit muted but its okay if you plan to be out most of the time. The room layout is better than the superior room without view in that the beds face the TV rather than the bathroom/toilet. The superior room toilet configurations aren’t great in that there is a foot-high gap between the ceiling and the door, there are gaps at the sides of the doors, and the glass frosting is a little light for my liking. Pretty okay for family but may not be great for friends or colleagues travelling together. I would recommend their one-bedroom suite for more toilet privacy (remember to request for twin beds if applicable). All in all, a good stay. We paid RM191 for our superior room with a view, RM40 more than the one without a view, but the layout was worth it! 🥳 #wecreate #accorhotels #kotakinabalu
