Except for the airport and Tanjung Aru, the location is excellent; you can walk to the night market and other markets. What stood out most was the amazing ocean view from the room and the clean swimming pool. I especially appreciated the washing machine and drying rack, which were very convenient, and the hot water pressure was excellent. I didn't see a single bug! If I ever go back to Kota Kinabalu, I'd definitely stay here again. 👍
What to bring: Maybe an extra towel or two?

The hotel is clean and hygienic. It's a one-bedroom apartment with a washing machine. It's very convenient for getting around, being close to the pier, so you can sleep in a bit. I was always the last one to be picked up for tours. It also has a balcony.

Only 15 to 20 min drive trom airport. Cross the roac in front of the hotel and you're facing the sea. The sea view is not that great though. 10min walk to che ”Philippines Market” which sells a lot of fresh produce and street food but it's very smoky.
Another 10min walk away and you reach Api Api Night Market but it only opens on Fri n Sat night.
Hotel serves a decent & good spread of buffet breakfast. Service staffs are smiley and friendly.

Had a pleasant stay for a short business trip. The staff were friendly and helpful throughout my stay. The room was clean, comfortable, and well-maintained. Amenities were complete, especially the gym which was convenient and clean. Location is also strategic with easy access to nearby restaurants and conveniences. Overall, a comfortable and hassle-free experience. Would definitely consider staying here again for future work trips.

The room was spacious and very clean, and the service was excellent. It's super convenient to stay here; you just cross a skybridge and there's a huge mall where you can shop every day. The hotel room itself is quite large, which is great for family trips, and the big bed was very comfortable. The two guys at the front desk were also really helpful!
The room was spacious and the air conditioning was comfortably cold, which I really appreciated. However, the carpet was dirty and there were noticeable cigarette marks on it, which affected the overall cleanliness. The shower pressure was just okay, not very strong. With some improvements in cleanliness and maintenance, the stay could be much better.

Hyatt Centric Kota Kinabalu is probably the best place to stay in the entire city, not just for the rooms, but for everything else as well. The hotel is modern, very clean, and the service attitude from every single staff member is outstanding, from check-in to housekeeping to restaurant and bar teams.
The pool and views on the 23rd floor are amazing, and the gym, while slightly small, has a really nice mountain view. Breakfast offers a great variety, and à la carte options are included at no extra cost, which is a big plus. The bar is excellent, especially during happy hour with buy-one-get-one-free deals on selected drinks. Honestly, the hotel was so comfortable that we barely wanted to leave, even just for a walk outside.
Special thanks to Natalie at check-in, who was incredibly friendly, patient, and welcoming. She even upgraded us from a city-view room to a mountain-view room, which made the stay even more special. At the bar, Alvin was tirelessly explaining the menu and drinks to us, and Yus always greeted us with a warm smile and provided great service, they truly made the experience memorable.
If I ever come back to Kota Kinabalu, this would 100% be my place to stay again.
This icon hotel of sandakan is getting a bit tired.like the town itself.eventhought they staffs are trying their best.it need a big makeover.Still my favorite in sandakan for it is full of history.
The host very responsive, give complete details. The check-in and check-out very easy and fast. The unit also was very good, clean, full with amenities. Will come back again for sure cause it is very close with airport.

Our small family decided to have a staycation in few hotel/resort and by far Sutera has won our heart. This place is amazing and i suggest anybody who wants to experience this place to stay more than 1Night. The room is still in its Vintage style , tv only has those old channel , there's one bathtub in the room which we loved specially my son,for the breakfast i do believe they can add more choices as they are more korean dishes focused, it'll be nice to have local kuih (hinompuka/pais pisang) other than kuih pisang only.. But other than that, you actually get free 1hour of bike rental on ur stay which we only know when we ask around, it was located right in front of the kids pool , other than that they do have a small train going around from Magellan to Pacific sutera and its FOC!!! I loved the staff energy the entire time, he asked our son to be in his seat as a driver and even let my son press few button and act like he's driving the train!! god bless your fun soul sir!! keep up the good work!! we will definitely be back again soon🥰❣️

GGuest UserThis hotel looks old and far from town. Need to drive about 20mins averagely to reach town. Sometimes will have traffic issues especially during peak hours. This hotel does not guarantee a parking place as this is by first come first serve. Can have a good rest as the bed is comfortable. The morning buffet is quite standard and kids friendly as well
22020yiwannianAn absolutely fantastic experience, you simply *must* book a sea-view room! Not only do you get an unbeatable ocean vista, but stunning views are everywhere you look. 👍
I forgot my slippers 🩴, so the thoughtful provision of slippers 🩴 was excellent and much appreciated.
The most heartwarming touch: after check-out, they offer a temporary lounge where you can shower, take a bath 🛀, and even use a sauna, complete with hair dryers.
MM28423****Overall, I'm quite satisfied. The room was spacious, and the hotel is located right by the pier. There was dedicated staff to handle luggage, though the facilities are definitely outdated and the room had a strange odor. The service was decent, but the front desk really helped us out of a bind when an unexpected situation arose on our way back.
MMaishushuThe service attitude is absolutely top-notch, truly reflecting its premium price. We had a small hiccup at check-in; initially, we weren't given a room with a bathtub as requested, and the hotel was reluctant to change it. Thankfully, Trip.com intervened and helped us get the room changed. A big shout-out to Trip.com! 👍
The environment is absolutely stunning. I highly recommend booking a sea-view room; the view is simply incredible. It's a shame it rained heavily for two consecutive days, so we missed out on the beautiful sunset, which was a bit disappointing. The coastline is long, and the sand is incredibly soft and fine, perfect for babies to walk on without any issues.
Food options in the surrounding area are quite limited, and the local restaurants weren't very good. The hotel's dining options are a bit pricey, and the menu became repetitive after a while, making meals a bit of a hassle.
Aside from that, the quality from this brand is consistently excellent, as always. It's definitely worth it!

GGuest UserI have to say this is one of the best hotels that I have ever visited. The hotel room is dustless, very clean. The location is very strategic, less than 5 minutes walk to go to Todak waterfront to enjoy seafood, or another 5 minutes walk in opposite direction to go to Suria mall for shopping. The staff here are friendly and dedicated in their services.After checking in, the staff gave me a call to ask me whether I am happy with the condition of the room. The breakfast is awesome, many varieties and very tasty. I am a demanding person, but this hotel does not disappoint me. It should be a role model for other hotels to follow.

AAnonymous UserNeeds to correct the shower tub area, shower curtain will prevent water from spilling to other areas of the toilet. Breakfast variety needs improvement. Aircon and water pressure were strong. Cozy unit. Good gym. Pool water needs to be heated for night swimming.

DderektkchanThe sea view from our room was partially obstructed, which was a minor downside. However, we were very satisfied with everything else. The panoramic sea-view infinity pool was fantastic. The room itself was spacious and well-equipped. The surrounding area has plenty to offer: a street with sea-view restaurants and bars, a seafood night market, and a large shopping mall with a supermarket. It's also very close to the airport and not far from Sunset Beach. Due to its location under the flight path, you might hear planes passing by. Most importantly, the price was reasonable, making the sea-view room excellent value for money.

DDrôleThe rooms are divided into villa-style and apartment-style. There were just two of us, so we opted for the apartment. The villas come with a private pool, and the back door leads directly to the sea 🌊 (the villa area doesn't have gates or fences, so passersby can walk right in). The apartment has two bedrooms, both with en-suite bathrooms 🛀, a kitchen, a balcony, and a living room 🛋️. The master bedroom has large floor-to-ceiling windows, perfect for watching the sunrise 🌅, though it was unfortunately raining that day 😢... The soundproofing was terrible; we could feel the vibrations when the neighbors had a party. We happened to be there during their National Day, so the price wasn't cheap either 😶.
CcmoalkSerene place. Nearby beach, pretty sunset.
There are still construction going on. Room is great, spacious, comfy bed, hot shower. The only downer is, very bad phone reception and zero wifi. Shame they have nice huge smart tv but cannot use.
Service wise, very bad. There's an obvious double standard on local vs foreigner. Local are left to figure out where their room is - it's a sizeable resort, u will get exhausted if u have a lot of luggage, no map given too. When asked for direction, the receptionist just said ”belakang sana”, while white tourist get escorted to their front door..
And since phone connection is bad, u have to walk all the way to reception to ask for help..wifi not working, fridge not working, fan at verandah not working...pretty bad experince we're glad it's only a night stay.
