Exceeded expectations in every aspect. Second time and we had 4 nights of fabulous stay in a seaview (corner) room on 20th floor. Room was spacious and comfy, so much so that I just wanted to stay in 😄 Location is good, easy access to Gaya Street, Signal Hill, Todak Waterfront, Suria Sabah Mall and all the good food nearby. Hotel staff were friendly and professional and speaks multiple languages. Feedback and requests were promptly attended to. Kudos! Definitely my choice of hotel when in KK!

Facilities: All amenities are available.
Cleanliness: Spotless and tidy.
Environment: Prime downtown location, with a street full of massage parlors downstairs. The bar street is a 5-minute walk, and Gaya Street is 15 minutes away.
Service: Warm and friendly.
My only complaint is the excessive noise! The sea view from the room is breathtaking, but the noise from the bar street across the way goes on until after 2 AM!

Aside from the nice views, everything else was pretty mediocre. We stayed in room 7418, which was quite spacious and kid-friendly. It had both a bathtub and a shower. The TV had static, and the breakfast was the same every single day – at least for the 6 nights we stayed, it was the same few options. Surprisingly, there were no noodles at the club lounge restaurant. For any egg dishes, you had to specifically ask a waiter for the menu, otherwise, you wouldn't know they even had them. For 6 nights at the executive lounge, the alcohol wasn't self-serve; they only gave you a tiny bit each time. The service, from check-in to check-out, was pretty much non-existent. Housekeeping seemed to depend on the staff's mood; the first night the room was cleaned exceptionally well – I almost regretted not filming a full walkthrough. But the following days, the cleaning was very superficial.

The room was beautiful and spacious, giving off a super vacation vibe! The hotel staff provided excellent service. There's also a bar by the sea where you can enjoy a drink and dinner. The location is right by Sutera Harbour, and the famous 'Love at Ringgit Island' (which was popular online) has now moved to Sutera Harbour. It's also not far from the airport, making it very convenient for getting around.

Everything was fine. Service, location. Easy access. Free parking. Beautiful sight of room. Except I do feel the size of beds seem smaller than other hotel.
Location is nice. Easy to walk around other places. Near KK plaza & walking distance to waterfront & centrepoint sabah. But do smell market at the parking lot.
Swimming pool cgood. Got both for adult and kids. I do wish more table & seats provided outside of changing room.
Breakfast was worth it. For kids & adults. I would suggest if you could add hot chocolate for drinks as well.
Personally I would like to stay at this hotel next time.

The hotel is located on a hillside, away from the busy surroundings, making it a great place for a quiet and comfortable night’s rest. It is equipped with a gym and swimming pool, offering a pleasant environment for guests to exercise during their free time. The room is cozy and spacious enough for a solo traveler like me, and it comes with all the necessary amenities. Breakfast is average to start the day, though the hotel could consider adding more main dish options. Overall, I enjoyed my stay at this hotel.

Considering the price, it's pretty good. The room was clean, and there's a mall and night market right near the hotel. However, you'll be doing a lot of walking, so if you don't like to walk, you might want to find a place closer to Gaya Street. It's suitable for easygoing travelers.
Our New Year family trip unexpectedly led us to Shangri-La Rasa Ria, and it was a fantastic surprise! The overall resort experience was excellent. The hygiene, environment, and service were all good. Breakfast was delicious; the sirloin steak and Vietnamese pho were a must-have every day. The kids spent all their time in the pool. Even though the hotel was full, it has two lobbies – one for the Garden Wing and one for the Ocean Wing – which helped manage the flow of guests, so it never felt overcrowded, which was just perfect. We stayed in the Ocean Wing, which is quieter than the Garden Wing. Although it's a bit far from the city, the hotel provides a free shuttle service to both the city and the airport. We visited Shangri-La Tanjung Aru during our island hopping, and it was much more crowded, probably because it has its own pier for sea excursions. All in all, I still think the resort experience at Rasa Ria was much better.
