Sabah Hotel Sabah Reviews

Sabah Hotel, Sandakan Guest Rating: 3.2

The Sabah hotel is probably the best in Sandakan and it certainly is suitable as an overnight stay (after a late arrival into the airport) or for the business traveller. However, while it appears to be in the centre of town from the maps - it is actually some way away from the tourist attractions in the town and transport is a necessity. The hotel and facilities are fine and the staff courteous and welcoming.

Clean, reasonably well furnished.

Some way from town, so inconvenient for shopping and sightseeing without transport. The local singer left much to be desired - vocals were off and she had to stop after each song to find the words for the next! Also, I hardly think cutaway jeans as suitable attire for a lady of her maturity or the location.

Comfortable and attractive Guest Rating: 4.5

This hotel offers very good value-for-money, friendly service, a very enticing pool with jacuzzi and water slide, large comfortable rooms (containing some well thought-out details), a good quality poolside buffet and the internet service, although there is only one computer, is not abusively priced.

Friendly service, pool, large comfortable rooms, good quality poolside buffet, outside centre (but not far).

Friendly service could be a little quicker, Chinese restaurant downstairs was a little slapdash (but still okay)

• Sightseeing/Attractions Tip : It is only a short walk from Agnes Keith's house, beside which the English Tea House is a great place to have a drink or a meal and contemplate the bay.

Good hotel Guest Rating: 3.3
