The hotel was modern, clean, quiet, good shower, amenities and beds, staff was fine. We had a view of the mountain behind, maybe because we had asked for quiet.

Kota Kinabalu (KK) is the capital of the East Malaysian state of Sabah on the island of Borneo. It features white-sand beaches, tropical rainforests and the outer lying coral reefs and islands of the Tunku Abdul Rahman (TAR) Marine Park, a haven for scuba divers.
Occupied by the Japanese and heavily bombed during World War II by the British, some remnants of this colonial era remain in the Atkinson Clock Tower and Signal Hill Observatory, with its sweeping view of the coast.
Tanjung Arn is KK’s most popular public beach and secluded northern beaches like Karambunai and Dalit have resorts dotted along the coast.
Kota Kinabalu Harbour hosts international cruise ships and the KK Waterfront is a popular place with many bars. The KK Handicraft Market is your chance to grab a nice souvenir to take home.
Mount Kinabalu is Malaysia’s highest mountain at 4,101 metres. This highly important ecological region contains rare fauna and flora and makes a good day trip from the capital.
A variety of hotels on Booking.com are centred around Kota Kinabalu International Airport, the city centre and islands.

The little city or small town is not special at all, there is no charm to it really and I would not visit it for the town itself. However, it is a town where the airport is so you have to go through it. It is very convenient to access the Jesselton pier to take the boats to the island and to go to the markets, which are not really that special. They are OK. I have seen many great markets throughout Asia.

we stayed in 4 different hotels for 3-4 nights.
we stayed in 4 different hotels for 3-4 nights. All good in different ways.
Sea food was super and other meals good,(some too spicy for us but we learnt to ask for "not too spicy")
Taxi transport was cheap and easy. Ferry boat transfers were more difficult, Ask Island Hotels for their ferry times BEFORE you book return flights as free ferries only go at selective times. We had to book a private ferry so we could get to the airport for a 13.00 flight. (cost £48)
Loved the area but we were on the wrong coast for easy access to oranotang monkeys . Flights across were too expensive for us to make the trip!

Kota Kinabalu is a fabulous place to visit for the amazing food, from budget level to fine dining but especially the local and other Asian cuisine. The Filipino Market was exceptional and we left will full cases. Transport around the centre is easy by walking or Grab. The Island trips looked superb but not at our age unfortunately considering the very hot afternoons. Next year we'll go to Mount Kinabalu area but too far on a short visit. The people were invariably charming.

I saw the inside and outside of KK International airport 5 times, and travelled to and from Ibis Styles Inanam hotel by taxi twice but did not visit any "attractions" in KK. The panoramic view westward over KK skyline from my 1-night stays in 10th and 11th floor rooms was unremarkable.
The only place of interest I noted was beside the highway heading eastwards out of town to the hotel: a cemetery covering 3 or 4 low hills densely packed with multicoloured graves and shrines: a miniature city of departed souls.

The hotel is very near to restaurants, mall, jesseltonport, filipino market and handicraft market. I love the staffs especially to Wilson who really helped me choosing my tours. I love Emy and Jen as well, they are very friendly. The owner of the hotel arranged a tour for me in Kundasang and made sure I was safe. I will really recommend this hotel especially for a solo traveler like me.
Wonder what’s 5 star hotel be like? You should try out this stay! The host and staff solved all the problems we have! The room looks just like the picture shown! very clean! everything in the room is well prepared! they guide us everything clearly. We had a pleasant stay with A residence. will definitely revisit again next time! thank you!
Walking distance to shopping malls and Jesselton ferry terminal . The apartment has a fully equipped kitchen, refrigerator, water dispenser( very hard to get with other home-stays) and microwave . Bedding linen so comfy and overall presentation like a hotel. 2 queen bed , 2 rooms .Swimming pool at level 4 with stunning view .
Shangrila Tanjung Aru is the best 5 Star Hotel in Sabah. if you want to get the sea vibes u can come here very near to KK city. The place is very relaxing and beautiful. All is good! Facilities 5 Star! The themewaterpark was very nice!! My family and I really enjoyed our stay here.
The hotel is located right on the waterfront, close to the main Jesselton Jetty, Gaya Street and other key facilities. We got offered an upgrade to a sea view room. The rooms look very nice and are very comfortable.
The breakfast buffet offers an amazing choice.
Matata Hotel is new hotel in Kota Kinabalu.
This located in city center of KK. You can reach Gaya Street, Suria Sabah and also Jesselton by walk. There are some coffe shop, restaurant, drugstore and bank near the hotel. The last is 7 eleven is in the downstairs
The team at CJ Residence were really helpful. But the best bit was the room. Totally 5 star hotel standard. The bed was so comfy. Sad it was just one night. Great location. One street away from the water and near all facilities.
A typical 5 star hotel with pretty much nothing to complain about. Excellent service and facilities all around. Plus point is they have a booth to cater hotel guests for day trips to Pulau Sapi, Pulau Manukan & Pulau Mamutik.
Mercure hotel is on a perfect place in the city. it is within walking distance from both Suria Sabah mall and Jesselton Pier for boattrips to the Islands. Nice rooftop terrace, although the pool was a bit short.
Hotel look very clean and comfy location is really good at the City center... Only 5 to 20 minutes walk to the jesselton jetty, Gaya street, Filipino market, and many shipping mall near by
