Situated in Kota Kinabalu, less than 1 km from Filipino Market Sabah, ACJ Residence @ Beside Cititel Hotel features accommodation with a restaurant, free private parking and a bar. With free WiFi, this 5-star hotel offers room service and an ATM. The accommodation provides a concierge service, luggage storage space and currency exchange for guests. Amenities are great. They provide exceptional service and communication is top notch, the best I have encountered. Clean, comfortable and quiet. The lightings are switch on by touch. The Grab service would drop off sort of behind. That area in the morning is not accessible because of a myr$4 charge to enter for cars. Just walk to Takaful for pick up. At night, the boom gate is open. The foot bridge (10 mins) to the Waterfront near there too. Go to Welcome Seafood by crossing the road next to Nasi Lemak Kahwin and walk through the building to the other side.Great food and service. Watson is also across that road. Great to buy bottle water, medicine and toiletries.

Located in Kundasang, Sling & Stone Mountain Suites offers 5-star accommodation with a garden. The hotel also provides free WiFi and free private parking.

The hotel offers an à la carte or Asian breakfast. 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.
