The room upgrade on arrival was a major surprise and very welcome. It made a huge difference.

The linen was top class! Location is near everything within walking distance - 3 malls; Waterfront Esplanade with the superb restaurants and pubs and many other facilities.

It felt like luxury after facing the humidity and heat of Sabah

The room was clean and the bed felt like a cloud - the pillows were amazing. It was lovely - the staff were so patient and kind and there was a beautiful lady in the restaurant that was so welcoming and helpful. I’m sure her name started with an L. Just beautiful.
