⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
We had our Sabah Geriatric Conference 2025 at The Palace Hotel Kota Kinabalu, and the experience was excellent.

The banquet team was truly outstanding — professional, attentive, and very accommodating throughout the event. The service, food quality, and pricing were all top-notch and well-balanced. The newly renovated hall and rooms were excellent — modern, spacious, and comfortable. Our delegates genuinely enjoyed the refreshed setup and pleasant atmosphere.

The hotel’s convenient location near the city centre also made logistics smooth and accessible for all participants.

Thank you to Kelvin and the team for the wonderful support and cooperation from start to finish. Highly recommended venue for conferences and events! 🌿

Very bad experience ~ the room i was given didnt have air cond. It was like sitting in 40C sauna room. When complained, a technician came, said need to top up gas, and went vanishing. Had to losge complaint again after waiting so long. And the receptionist staff was asking us, what the technician said, whats wrong with the air cond bla bla.. After i raised voice, another technician came, checked again, and tried giving the same excuse.. No gas just need to topup. This time i was firm with him regarding the timing. He came back and put some ?gas and it was less hot but wasnt cold the whole night. There was only 1 water bottle with oily kettle. I had bad headache staying here. Nx morning, i ordered Grab coffee, and the receptionist refused to just accept the Grab food while im cmg down the lift. Very rude after a horrible service. When i struggled to load my luggage into the car, no help whatsover from their staff.

In summary, HORIBLE AND TERRIBLE

All staff was friendly, overall look of the hotel was also nice. However the room itself although spacious, it was not the cleanest there were hairs that were not mine everywhere, bedsheets with old blood stains and were not changed even though I’ve asked to clean the the room twice, they only tidy and not actually clean. Then when it comes to amenities they were very stingy and did not replace anything until I was almost out of toothpaste, shower gel and shampoo.

Overall I would say it is OK for the price, but those things I mentioned did affect the comfort of my stay

The hotel is situated on a hill at the edge of KK city, offering a peaceful setting surrounded by greenery that creates a relaxing, nature connected atmosphere. I had a pleasant stay, with friendly and helpful staff. The hotel also features a gym and swimming pool. The swimming pool were not available for use during my stay. Breakfast was average, but the selection was sufficient to start the day. Overall, I had a good experience. However, the only downside was the poor soundproofing as the noise from the adjacent room through the connecting door was quite noticeable.

Had a great time at Palace Hotel KK last Friday for a farewell event with my coworkers. The venue was cozy and the service was excellent. Food was tasty too. Parking is okay if you come early, especially before 6pm. I’ve been at this hotel about 20 years ago and it’s nice to see it still well maintained. Overall a pleasant experience. Recommended for small events or gatherings.

Really lovely hotel just a short walk away from the main Kota Kinabalu area. Room was so comfy (I had the deluxe room and it was very spacious) and lovely. Pool was really good and the gym had a decent amount of equipment to use. Breakfast had a range of choices. I would definitely stay here again!!
