Good match for:

Things to keep in mind:

Stayed at Sky Hotel in Sabah for two days, and it was a wonderful experience. The service was very good, the staff were friendly, helpful, and made us feel welcome throughout our stay. Our room was clean and comfortable, and we were pleasantly surprised to get a king size bed for the two of us. The best part was definitely the view absolutely amazing! It made our stay even more relaxing and memor...

I’ve always heard my colleagues praise the food at Sky Hotel Kota Kinabalu — and honestly, it truly went beyond my expectations. Not only do they shine in traditional Malay dishes, but they also impress in Western selections and even desserts. What stood out most to me was how they elevated a humble classic like Pecel. Instead of the usual presentation, they modernised it beautifully: rice cubes w...

After a tired day outside, we check in hotel around 9:30pm. Offer Smart TV but no internet so nothing can be seen. No floor map provided, after shower, water flow over and the whole toilet floor is wet. No shower gel is provided. Room looks dusty. Wall is dirty. Sofa is dirty. The worst thing is, after turn on aircond, water dripping! Image at 10:30pm when we are tired and just want to sleep. The ...

I never recommend this hotel. We stayed almost 5 days. During those days they did housekeeping once. In residence room, lots of ants are around on the table, around the sink, and on the floor. Floor is so dirty. We read reviews a lot. They all praised this one but Im not sure why they did. The staff are kind but the foods served at breakfast are very limited. The taste is not bad but not my taste...

Gym and pool are very run down. Saw a dead bird in the pool and the pool water was cloudy. Quite a number of gym equipment is actually unsafe to use given how old/loose the screws were, also no AC/ventilation in the gym which makes working out during the day impossible. Decent room with good amount of space, but not walking distance to restaurants or amenities. Walls are thin so you hear people wa...
