Excellent Hotel at the Heart of Kota Kinabalu”
We really enjoyed our stay here in Hotel Grandis. I am glad I made the last minute decision to change hotels and choose Hotel Grandis. I really wanted my mom to enjoy her post-operation vacation. The hotel is at the 'end' of central Kota Kinabalu but the location is excellent. Given the small size of downtown KK, everything is of walking distance. Beside it is Suria Sabah mall which doesn't really offer much in terms of shopping but it was good nonetheless. The property is well-maintained and the staff (Nia stood out for me) are excellent. The room we had was quite spacious and had a tasteful design. The bathroom was quite spacious too. The roof top bar and pool are nice especially if you love sunsets as it gives you an unobstructed view of Kota Kinabalu's beautiful sunset. The gym is adequate. Good thing I opted to have breakfast included as their breakfast spread is quite decent. The Rosea Cafe also has a nice view, make sure you sit by the window. Their nasi lemak was pretty good. All in all, if I will visit KK again, I will definitely book Hotel Grandis. Highly recommended.

Great hotel at a good location ”
This is the first time we check into Hotel Grandis , we arrived at Kota Kinabalu at 4pm and we were quickly check in by the staff, the rooms are big and spacious and there are 2 queen beds and were given connecting room, and it is located next to Suria Sabah shopping mall and food and shopping is everywhere. The room wifi is fantastic and we are so happy to stay here and we would definitely come back again to stay at this Hotel Grandis.

Great location and a modern hotel”
Hotel Grandis has upgrade my stay to an Executive Suite with two floors and lovely ocean view, thanks! The hotel is pretty modern comparing with other hotels in Kota Kinabalu. Nice location with a large mall just next door with plenty of food options, also within walking distance to the waterfront and town centre.

All staff members are very helpful and polite. Always smiling. Location very closed to ferry station, eateries and shopping Malls. Specious room. Clean and very well maintained. Breakfast with wider spread of choices. Will stay again. Thanks to all staff members of Grandis Kota Kinabalu for making our stay wonderful.

Strategic Hotel in city centre”
Pros: 1. Strategic location within the city centre of Kota Kinabalu 2. Located in the same building as Suria Mall KK making it easier for shopping and eating. The new Jesselton Duty Free and popular Jesselton Jetty (gateway to many islands nearby) are within walking distance 3. Walking distance to KK Wet Market, Filipino Market and Craft Market 4. Rooms are spacious with all the necessary amenities 5. Staffs are generally helpful and friendly Cons: 1. Depending on the time you go out, you could be caught in the traffic jam especially in the main roads in the city centre. 2. Parking is inadequate and not covered.. potential to be exposed to the torrential rainfall 3. If I were to be picky, they were slow in getting our room ready despite us reaching the hotel at 4pm. Also there were funny smells on the bedsheet in one of our rooms but credit to them they quickly came and changed the bedsheet. Maybe they forgot to change it before that.

Strategic Location”
I booked this hotel based on the recommendation from my KK friend. It turned out to be an enjoyable stay during my 3-nights staying in this hotel. Pros: 1. strategic location within the city centre of Kota Kinabalu 2. Located in the same building as Suria Mall, making it easier to shop and eat. The new Jesselton Duty Free and the popular Jesselton Jetty (gateway to many islands) are within walking distance 3. Walking distance to KK Wet Market, Filipino Market and Craft Market 4. Spacious rooms with all the necessary amenities 5. Staffs are generally helpful and friendly Cons: 1. Depending on the time you go out, you could be caught in the traffic jam especially in the main roads of the city centre 2. Parking is inadequate and not covered - I had to brave the rain just to reach my car, or after I parked my car and had to run to the lobby 3. If I were to be picky, I got my room only after 4pm... this is due to the fact that many tourists checked out late

Great value for money”
I live in a family room for 4 persons of price about HK$820. Beds are good. Toilet is large. No noise is heard in midnight and in the morning so that sleeping quality is very good. Suitable for people planning to have outing in the day time. Many small restaurants for breakfast nearby. A massage shop is nearby. Greater value for money than Sutera Magellan Hotel which is 4 times the price of Grandis. For Sutera Magellan, despite large hotel area, with poorer bed, noiser environment, poorer customer services for check-in.

Clean, modern hotel in the city”
I stayed at the Hotel Grandis for two nights with my family of four. We booked a deluxe family room and requested a higher-floor room. Our room was on 11/F with a side view of the ocean which was great. Make sure you request a higher- floor room 'coz you won't be able to get any views if you're at the lower floors as the hotel is right next to the Suria Sabah Mall. In fact, the address of the hotel is at the mall, which makes it really convenient for us to buy fruits and souvenirs from the supermarket as well as shopping. At least you got somewhere to go when there's a rainstorm. The Suria Sabah mall is a new, modern shopping arcade where you can find brand-name stores. Apart from being right next to the mall, it's also very close to the jetty/Jesselton Point. If you plan to go island hopping or join the Borneo Reef tour this hotel would be perfect for you 'coz it's only around 5 minutes walk from the hotel to both jetties. The room itself is very clean, spacious and modern. I'm impressed by the shower facilities. The bed and pillows are comfy too. One thing I would complain about is that there were only two glasses in the bathroom when it's a four-person family room. There's a swimming pool on the rooftop which gives fantastic view of the city and the ocean. Great for sunbathing and a dip. They also provide towels for rent. Too bad the weather wasn't too good during my stay. It is the perfect spot to watch a sunset. Staff were quite friendly and helpful, but definitely not too experienced. The worst part about this hotel would be the food. We ordered some drinks at the SkyBlu bar beside the pool and they really weren't up-to-standard. The mango lassi tasted watery and there's only a slight hint of mango. Breakfast was so-so, not particularly impressive. Overall it's a nice hotel value for money. I do recommend it for a short stay, as a resting place for your daytime adventures at sea! Do check out the rooftop pool!

Worth for money”
Hotel room clean but bathroom need to improve cleanliness. Especially bathtub. Reception staffs are very friendly and helpful. The most important is this is a non smoking hotel. Like it so much. And within walking distance to Suria Mall. And driving about 8mins to Kota Kinabalu airport. Room service is 24 hours. Definitely will be back here again.

Wonderful Getaway”
I am from Singapore and was there with my family from 7th Aug to 9th Aug 2014. It was a pleasant stay throughout the 3D2N without any problem. The allocated room view was great n peaceful. Unfortunately, we did not had a chance to try out the Food n Beverage at the hotel. However, I am sure it should be fantastic. We will definitely be back for family room next year. Therefore, management of Hotel Grandis keep up the good work and see you next year.

Great location, excellent staff, brilliant room”
We loved our stay at grandis, it was in such a great position, the closest hotel to jesselton wharf so taking trips to the islands was a breeze, no need for a taxi transfer. The hawkers setup at jesselton or near the night markets both within 5 mins walk so very easy for our 2 small kids aged 6 and 3. Suria shopping complex is downstairs and is the best in town, the Sunday market is a 5 min walk away. The bar and restaurant at level 1 was amazing for breakfast or after dinner drinks, the kids especially enjoyed the piano. We highly recommend this hotel.

Great location”
We stayed 5 nights at the Hotel Grandis in a deluxe studio. We were very pleased with the amount of space that we had and found the rooms (living area and separate bedroom) to be quite comfortable. Our only complaint would be the fact that our windows faced a blank wall (room 928). We found all the staff we had contact with to be extremely courteous and helpful. The swimming pool is very small but while we were there we had no problems obtaining seating around the pool. The hotel is in a great position, being close to the main shopping areas. Overall we were very pleased with our stay.

GREAT LOCATION AND FACILITY”
Stayed at grand is for 3 days and 1 day at Hyatt. Stayed in one of sea view rooms. It was a great room. After 3 days at grandis, stayed at Hyatt and chose the sea view room again. It was twice expensive for an inferiror room ... Grandis is the best.!

A Great Hotel”
The stay in Hotel Grandis was great. Eventhough we were checked in late by the hotel management but they attend to us nicely. Upon checking in the room, the room was spacious and very clean. The best thing is the location of the hotel which is just next to a Shopping Mall and near to Jesselton point where you could go island hoping.

Wonderful hotel”
We very much enjoyed the Grandis Hotel as our base of operations in the KK region. The rooftop setting was fantastic for relaxing, cooling off, eating, and enjoying the sunset. Our family room was large and the bathroom was luxurious. Also we always found tasty options at the buffet breakfast. I highly recommend this hotel!

Great hotel with excellent location ”
We really enjoyed our stay and cannot fault it. Location is excellent next to the mall, staff were all very pleasant, facilities are good and the rooms are spacious. Would recommend if it’s sunny to get a sea view as it’s worth paying the extra money to watch the sunset from your room. We ended up staying multiple times at the grandis as we were so impressed.

Great location, convenient to explore greater KK”
Sea view hotel - cross the road and one is already on Gaya street in old KK town. Being on main road means it is easy to hail a ride-share (hotel has decent Wi-Fi connection) and travel north to Kinabalu/ Kundasang/ Kota Belud etc.
