Great place to stay in Sandakan”

I've stayed here twice now because the value for what you get is just too good to pass up. Pros: - cheap - facilities were great: air conditioning, comfy beds, private bathrooms with hot showers, tv and fridge - great restaurant with cheap food in the lobby - very friendly staff Cons: - it's a bit out of the way, about a 15 minute walk to central Sandakan - not much to do around the hotel, however there is a night market about 10 minutes away I'd recommend this place to any type of traveller looking for cheap accommodation that has everything you could want from a hotel.

Lots of value for the price”

The location of the hotel is a bit off the city centre, but there are every few minutes mini busses on the main road going to the city for only 0,80 RM. Also there are few food options nearby. The room was spacious and really clean. The walls are not paper thin as usual in this price segment. The wifi/internet was really stable and good for Borneo standards!

Cheap & comfortable but facilities need to improve.”

Stayed 2 nights in 2 different rooms. Overall room condition is okay. Air-conditioner was not cold enough & toilet flush is not working but the hotel management willing to change our room to a better one (without charges). Cleanliness of toilet can be improve. Location - Close to most of Sandakan attraction places via car. (Uber/grab is available) Walking distance to Pasar Malam pos.

cheap and nice”

The location just beside sandakan the only one sandakan cinema. Quite far from town. Previously not far away from ocean king restaurant

Cheap & good”

Old hotel & facilities but we've got a very big room with good air-con for a cheap price. Wifi worked well even though it did not work at all for one morning. Staff is really helpful. It's not in the town center but it takes only 5 mins bus to reach the town and the bus ticket cost 0.7 rm only

Very nice place for its price”

The place is clean and comfortable!, we got an aircon room, with a cozy double bed. There is a nice local restaurant on front of the hotel. The location is not very good but we got a Uber to Sandakan town for 4-5 ringgit. I would stay again!

Pleasant experience”

Rooms were a good size and clean, good aircon and has a tv. Wifi was a bit weak. Travel desk was very helpful!!! Assisted us in arranging onward travel and giving good advice for what to do in Sandakan. The restaurant in situ does nice juices. Few other local restaurants, shops and laundry service near by. Not a long journey to the animal conservation projects.

Good But Far From Town”

clean, staff just ok. but the location a lil bit far from town. if u have a car, it will ok.. but dont worry, Sandakan already have GRABCAR n UBER.

Good value for money”

It’s really comfortable and worth for only rm42.40 and I can get one big size room and king size bed, the room is clean so far do not have any bad odor, the only cons is the toiletries, there is no any supply of toiletries only bath towel available, but I accepted it because for only this money, what can I expect more? Only the room light I don’t know whether it’s broken or what whole room looks so dim. Maybe it’s close to the nature which there are trees behind our hotel, there is some ants on the table will crossing by, and the spray head hanger is broken too. anyways it’s happy that staying here.

Fine”

Hotel Hsiang Garden is an average hotel with good offer.

Excellent value for money and friendly English sneaking staff ”

This was a great find we had a really good stay after visiting Uncle Tans at Kinabatangan River. The shower was hot and the aircon was good. The staff helped organise a lift for us to get from the hotel to Sepilok. Highly recommended!

Good location”

Have parking to park car, near with the mini market and restaurant. If you really like silent place, this hotel stay will be your choice

You get beyond what you pay ”

I stayed in dorm room for 13nights (well I travelled for work) n it was great. Clean room, nice lighting, clean sheets, nice bathroom, good water pressure. Very satisfying... And above all that u only pay less than rm15/night...

Value for money ”

We stayed for two nights here as a pit stop after travelling from KK. The room was big with a TV and the bathroom had a hot shower and bath. The only downside is that the room smelt like smoke so if you are a none smoker then request a smoker free room. The staff were extremely friendly and accommodating and the location was fine, a 15 minute walk from the centre but that was fine. The food at the restaurant wasn't the best but there is a really tasty Chinese over the road!

Comfortable and good value money”

Comfortable and very good value for money. Local restaurants very near and food good. A few Km's from city centre so need own car or use taxi.

Don't stay here”

The hotel is located nowhere near the centre of town in a sub standard. The room litterely stank, the toilet didn't flush, the shower was broken and the towel rail fell off the wall. We arrived too late to go anywhere else but booked out first thing the next morning. The staff booked us a taxi and said it was ok to pay 40 ringgit for the trip to town. The taxi arrived and wanted 50 ringgit. We caught the bus for 2 ringgit and found out from the next hotel that a fair taxi fee should hav been 15 ringgit so beware of rip offs on taxis in sandakan. Definitely find alternate accomodation, we like budget prices but this place was a joke

Very basic and cheap hotels”

Room basically furnished and clean only bathroom is old. far from town center. Very noisy at night. Not suitable for family.

value for money”

affordable price comes with comfy room.

Reasonable price.. ”

Wifi line no good. Facilities need few maintenance. But is a great choice for budget travellers, near bus stop and can hop to city easily.
