Clean and comfortable room.”

The room is clean, and the bed is comfortable. It's a bit dated, but well maintained and look good. Location is very good by the riverside, and you have all the mosque, convenient shop, restaurant and mall close nearby. Parking is extremely limited. That is the only downside. If you're not driving, then this ia very good choice. Will come again.

Very good location in Kuching water front. Good access to both central part of water front and old China town area. Very nice front staffs. One example is that Ms. Rosana (lady staff) helped me to use microwave at hotel restaurant when I took away food from outside. Room was big & clean. Highly recommend to everyone who want to have pleasant stay at great value of money.

The hotel sits near Kuching Waterfront, within walking distance. You can go to Top spot for your food cravings, or take the RM1 boat ride across the river to get to the food stalls. Many option to choose from. You can also cross the iconic bridge. The hotel also steps away from the landmark Kuching roundabout. Only problem is, parking is very limited.
