Kota Kinabalu District Holidays from AU$734

The location is very ideal! Walkable to many malls, jetty, street markets... The internal of the room is quite neat and relatively clean. But the soundproofing of the room is terrible! There are a lot of noises at night such as motorcycles ramping, next doors opening and closing of doors frequently, people talking at the corridor.... Especially between 2-4am. Cannot sleep properly.

The Borneo Eagle is an exclusive five star hotel - newly launched. The staff are excellent, facilities good - the only issue we had was the plethora of sand flies which caused a lot of issues sitting outside. We talked to the Manager about this and understand a machine is being shipped to deal with this issue - also the beach on the offside of the hotel was covered with plastic bottles and rubbish, which should be cleared on a daily basis to support the high quality nature of the hotel.

The hotel is old and requires an upgrade. I stayed at the beach front villa, it has a nice view though.

Great views across the harbour, but a bad smell coming into the bathroom from the drain.
