I will definitely come back!!”
This is my second time choosing this hotel .. My first experience also superb .. this hotel management is the best .. my stay previously having problems with the toilet .. they had offered me with 2 bed suite .. which is very² comfortable .. And this time I feel so damn lucky again & again... Due to festive season I had late check in .. the reception said their room full n upgrade me to the VVIP suite that really really turn my holiday to the most valuable & wonderful holiday .. I would like to thanks the hotel & the management for their kindness.. I might be lucky but few friends also sharing the same experience .. I will not going anywhere anymore whenever I am in Kuching .. this merdeka palace hotel & suites will be my utmost choose.. Cons : maybe due to festive season, only 1 person in charge at the front desk .. then the process taking time .. The breakfast is too simple.. n front desk informed kids count from 6 & above . While the cafe charged for 5 years kids .. a bit confusing there .. Anyway I'm having great stay n definitely will come back again.. Thanks merdeka villa .. I'm loving it

I managed to get early check in at 1.00pm. We arrived at 11.00am and left our belongings at the reception counter. We walked to the Parkson and waited there until 1.00pm for check in. The check in and check out process were very smooth without any deposit. At night we walked to Top Spot Seafood. Less than 1km. But for family, you better use grab. The route is quite challenging. Hahahha. After that, we walked at Kuching Waterfront and spent some time at the bridge watching fountain show. Then, we walked back to hotel by crossing Parkson since it is still open. Room is clean and spacious, water pressure is very good and the environment inside the hotel is sooo relaxing.

MERDEKA PALACE SUITE”
Came to have vacation with my friend. Booked one of Apartment Suite... very recomended... hve one Deluxe King and 2 single bed.. Amazing price for the suite RM200/night (promo price). Came with kitchen and living room. Totally comfortable if you want to stay with your family. The room didn't come with breakfast, so I had to top-up RM20/person. The check in was at 3pm , and i was chck in early 2.30pm.. for Quality: its clean .. The operator dial number took forever to answer. Some of our rooms have mold in the fridge. Merdeka palace is a historical hotel and was majestic with tip-top service quality. I don't know what went wrong. I hope there will be improvement after this comment because I do look forward to stay again. I guess pandemic does have the effects here. Other than that, the foods are still delicious, the staff is friendly and I can see they are trying despite being low in manpower. Fantastic view of the water front and I get to watch the fountain show from my window.

There’s a mall nearby (also walking distance) if you need to buy something. The staffs was very helpfull. Room was so comfortable. Worth my money. Totally gonna repeat if i come to kuching again.

Location wise: great choice as museums, waterfront and Plaza Merdeka are within walking distance. The christmassy deco is really beautiful. Helpful staff, they let us leave the bag as we arrived quite early. Did not use all facilities. The room is comfortable, old, sturdy yet classic furniture which I really like but the toilet flush need a bit improvement. I personally love the plate used in the resto. The breakfast spread was nice especially chicken pandan!

Comfortably Spacious”
We took the 3 room apartment, and it is very spacious and can accommodate up to 6 adults. The unit comes with 3 toilets, to cope for its room size and occupants. Very good value especially for group travelers. The only down side is the hotel is quite old.

Excellent value!”
I took a lower category room on this trip due to my solo & short stay. Merdeka Palace is deserving of 5* rating for service. An extremely friendly reception staff enabled me an earlier check in, which made a big difference in my overall stay. Full amenities were provided in the room & bathroom to make it an overall excellent stay.

The hotel is walking distance from the river front and there’s also a mall nearby. I prefer this hotel than those in the city center because i appreciate a quiet place to stay. Getting a taxi is also easy and it’s near the airport.
