    amazing view

    It was just a well-suited match for a weekend rest in Kota Kinabalu with good value. The view from the room was amazing, especially from the shower, where I could see the sea and boats. Make sure to check the parking before arriving as it can be a bit tricky at night.

    Like it or leave it? here’s my verdict

    The location is perfect for exploring, with breathtaking views and an unforgettable infinity pool experience. Staff members were polite and professional, making my stay enjoyable.

    Breakfast selection was lackluster,, with some dishes unexciting and not replenished quickly. The overall food quality fell short of expectations.

    spacious room
    stunning ocean view
    disappointing food quality
    service delays

    Had an overall enjoyable experience at the new Marriott in Kota Kinabalu. The rooms were spacious and modern, and the ocean view was stunning. However, the food quality at the club lounge was disappointing, and there were some delays in service that detracted from the stay.

    disappointing lunch buffet

    Amazing sea views!

    Had a fab time here! The views from the conference room were just stunning, felt like I could sit in the washroom forever just to soak it all in. The function rooms are super spacious and look great! The only bummer was the lunch buffet. the fish was cold and the desserts were a letdown. Plus, the bar had some cool drink options that were perfect!

    Breathtaking Sea View and Delicious Breakfast!

    I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The Deluxe Twin Room with Sea View was a real treat, offering a breathtaking view from the balcony. The daily breakfasts were delicious, especially with a wide selection of local dishes. The staff were incredibly helpful, ensuring I had everything I needed. One area for improvement could be the shower head, as it could use some repairs.

    city view
    spacious layout
    noise disturbance

    The Deluxe King Room with City View offers a stunning panorama of the bustling urban landscape. The spacious layout and modern decor create a comfortable atmosphere for unwinding after a long day.

    During my stay, noise from a concurrent festival made sleep nearly impossible. The hotel's restaurants were closed, limiting dining options, and I faced unnecessary complications with transfers due to access restrictions at the front entrance. A lack of communication about the festival's impact prior to my arrival felt unfair.
