Hotels With Spa in Brunei-Muara, Brunei Darussalam

Probably the only chain hotel in Bandar Seri Begawan, capital of Brunei. Location is great, right in the city centre. Museums and mosques nearby. The hotel itself was fine, however it is looking a little dated now. Could do with a renovation. Saying that, all amenities worked well and the pool was nice enough to take a dip to beat the heat. Tip: download the Dart APP (Brunei's answer to Uber/Grab) and change some money (Brunei dollars or Singapore dollars are accepted everywhere).

The interior decoration of the hotel room is still relatively old. It feels like a domestic guest house. The high price is not in line with the actual environment. There are no restaurants and supermarkets near the hotel, so life is inconvenient.

Overall, the hotel is clean and tidy. Don't expect too much; the facilities are typical of a 2000s 5-star hotel. If you need to use your computer or connect it to the TV, you need to bring your own cable. The hotel still uses the round satellite TV cable from 2000, and doesn't have VGA/HDMI cables. The charging port uses a British plug. Downstairs is a shopping mall, one of the better ones in the area, with Rolex, Tudor, Patches, and a souvenir shop, KFC.

Check in time is strictly at 2pm. Bed a bit hard (For me) Gym quite run down or under renovation. However it's quite convenient as the supermarket is just downstairs.

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!
