"Overall okay. Only thing is the master bedroom aircon which takes awhile to fix. Owner very responsive and provided welcome drinks when arrived. The area is good and quite close to shops. Good to have a car though."

"Rooms are clean and nicely appointed with great views and strong A/C. No hallway or elevator air conditioning so temps run warm. Pool is exquisite and pool bar has great menu.
Hotel only reopened under new flagship in recent months after 7 year closure (was a Sheraton before). Some areas still under renovation but this is the best property in Sandakan by a long shot. Italian restaurant is coming.
Buffet breakfast was just OK. Not many gluten free options and hot food was luke warm at best.
Hotel is attached to the mall which is convenient."
"ok... trying to give a balanced view here.
The location was superb, and we walked to Sepilok Orangutan sanctuary twice, easily, in 5 mins, and had amazing experiences. Wonderful memories. loved that.
The hotel itself. Once upon a time it was probably very flash. nowadays it needs some love and maintenance.
The choices for dinner in the restaurant were very limited (but the food we ordered tasted good), and the breakfast was very ordinary.
The pool area needs some maintenance and I did not put my ears in the water even though it was 30+ degrees. gross scum marks at the waterline. Just looked disgusting.
The gym is a joke. We booked because it had one. Unfortunately every machine is broken, there is no air con, and the toilet and changing area are filthy. Unusable.
We booked a basic room, so didn't expect miracles, but did expect air conditioning. sorry no., You need to upgrade for that at double the price! it still wasn't that cold, but was still worth the upgrade."
"We wanted a mid priced hotel near the centre of town/ waterfront.
The room had everything we needed. Enough space to open two suitcases. Comfy bed. Good towels. Kettle and tea/coffee making. Separate bathroom. The shower was good. We did notice the silicone around shower glass was very thick, amateurish, but it worked.
We used the waterfront restaurant for breakfast and it had a decent selection, including an egg station.
We also had one meal in the rooftop area with views down over the harbour.
It is close to other waterfront restaurants.
Its opposite a large multistory mall with many food, grocery, pharmacy, clthing stalls.
Behind that there is a laundromat and the wet markets. We enjoyed seeing all the fresh produce including the fishing boats return.
Parking is out the front and regulated by the hotel staff. We hired a driver for two day to go out to all the atttractions , Lobock Bay Probiscus Monkey Sanctuary, Orang Utan Rehabilitation Centre, Sun Bears, Rainforest Discovery Centre ( including return to collect us at 8pm after night walk) as well as temple, SinmSim Water Garden, Sandakan Death March Memorial, Edith Keith house and museum.
We thought there was a lot to see and do and just needed a good bed before our tour to Sukau and Utan for wildlife. "
"Super cute and tranquil place; staff are so warm and welcoming, views are unmatched, and food is amazing. They run a free shuttle bus to everything around the area 3 times a day and also easy to walk. Nice spot to go on runs - I ran to the market in the morning that has some amazing vintage shopping there. Would highly recommend!"
"Rooms never serviced. Bring your own shower gel and shampoo. Thin towels and only two per room. Cold breakfast from the buffet. Could do with having a drinks and snacks cabinet. Lumited cold drinks when resturant shut. Nothing around there shop wise. Bring supplies. On the plus the people at the desk were good. And walking distance to Orang-Utan, Sun Bear and RDC. Or 4 ringets in taxi, so cheap."
