Borneo Coastal Residence @ Imago Mall

Kota Kinabalu City Center
The facilities were okay but the pool was very nice. We had no hot water in our room. We switched it on and waited for 2 hours but nothing. There were ants everwhere as well. The lady that met us out front to show us in was very good though and we appreciated her assistance.
Hotel Oriental
3.5/526 Reviews
I stayed here with a friend before my flight back to the Philippines and boy I had the worst time. The hotel is too hidden. Literally at the back of warehouses! The parking was too small and my friend had a hard time finding a good spot. Its a rundown old hotel and OYO took over to give it a more ”modern” feel. There were no complimentary water or even toiletries. Only towels. No telephone inside the room to contact the front desk. No lift. You need to get ready for the stairs. You also need to pay the tourist tax if you are a foreigner but luckily my friend is Malaysian so its under his name. You get what you pay for. If you are on a tight budget and just want to sleep the night out you can just pick this one. You just have to really find it in the busy city and if you are not familiar, try Waze or Google maps. It helped us get to there.

Got same room like in this picture. So far everything is well. Clean, complete facilities and got qiblat label for pray but not all the lights is working. Need to be careful if bring your children because the furniture mostly from glass and the parking area is not free.
Space Cap Hotel
4.8/539 Reviews
Kota Kinabalu City Center
Decided to try this capsule since I was travelling alone + had great experience staying capsule hotels throughout Japan. Good location, rather central, Starbucks & convenience store just downstairs. Paid an average of just S$11 per night, great value considering breakfast is included, though a simple one with bread/ jam spreads/ instant coffee. Washing machine free to use, but your clothes are never really dry since its cramped together with someone else’s wet laundry next morning. The capsules themselves are made from cheap plastic, squeaks loudly every time you move, absolutely nothing like those I stayed througouht Japan, plus the blue themed lights made it even harder to sleep. Wi-fi signal is pretty bad from within the capsule. Spent 3 nights here before moving to the newly built 5-star Marriott across the street.
Nana Marina Court

The apartment is more comfortable than the hotel. First, there is good air circulation. Second, there is space for children. Third, they can cook by themselves. It is very convenient for shopping and grocery shopping. You need to swipe your card to come in downstairs. There are two doors without worrying about safety. The aunt has a friendly cleaning attitude. There is a bar street on the opposite side of the apartment, and you can watch the sunset. It rained that day and the burning clouds after sunset were so beautiful! NaNa people are very nice, we can check out at 2 o'clock in the afternoon on our plane at night, and also printed out the information for us, which is very recommended!
Mercure Kota Kinabalu City Centre

Kota Kinabalu City Center
I recently stayed at Mercure Kota Kinabalu, and my overall experience was a mixture of positives and negatives. The hotel's ambiance and service were generally acceptable, but a couple of aspects left me with a less than perfect impression. On the positive side, the room, although not the promised city view, was comfortable and well-maintained. The amenities provided were standard and met our basic needs for a short stay. The hotel staff were friendly and helpful, adding a pleasant touch to our overall experience. However, one notable drawback was the discrepancy in the room description. Despite being assured of a city view, we were assigned a room overlooking the opposite facing the busy road. While this may seem like a minor issue, it did impact our overall satisfaction, as the promise of a particular view was one of the factors influencing our choice. Another inconvenience was the lack of dedicated parking facilities at the hotel. This meant that my husband had to purchase parking coupons daily, adding an unexpected expense to our stay. Moreover, the strict enforcement of parking regulations by 8 am posed a challenge, especially for guests who preferred to start their day later. In conclusion, Mercure Kota Kinabalu is a decent choice for a short stay, offering comfortable accommodations and friendly service. However, potential guests should be aware of potential discrepancies in room assignments and the absence of on-site parking facilities, which may affect the overall convenience and cost of their stay.
