It was very clean, and the staff was extremely helpful. Free luggage storage is a great option! My bed was also very comfortable. A lot of amenities were available including cosmetics and earplugs.

I stayed here for a night on 30.07.2025. The hotel room is superb, feels premium and it is worth the price. The concept is a modern hotel in the forest. Received a warm welcome by the host a.k.a owner. Breakfast for two, was more than enough. Thank you Melissa.

An excellent hotel. Lovely and quiet and nicely presented. The room was big enough for the 4 of us. Breakfast had a good selection even for a vegan. Pool was covered in the bar area so perfect whatever the weather (bit of a shock when you first get in). lovely views from the pool/bar and you can see the fountain show from there. Great location. The staff were excellent. The lady poolside attendant was really lovely and friendly and we loved our little chats with her.

Excellent location within walking distance to eateries, malls and the jetty for island-hopping. Staff were exceptionally warm and hospitable - 5 stars to them! The pool was a great place to unwind on a humid afternoon. The view from the café was just perfect, overlooking the sea. Would definitely return the next time I'm in KK.

Newest 5 star hotel in Kuching. Stayed here during New Year's Eve and purposely chose the room with the view of the river for hopes of catching the midnight fireworks. Well, you could see them but it's a bit obstructed by other buildings, due to the location of the Sheraton. Other than that, it is a fancy new place. Staff were very friendly and did their best to be attentive.

The room is really great! Newly refurbished with huge TV and great selection of movies, love it! And the best is the beds and pillows probably topped the 5 star hotels! Super comfy after a long day. Breakfast was good too! Location is the best on the riverfront.
