More about The Hill Kinabalu. Kundasang, Ranau

More about The Hill Kinabalu. Kundasang, Ranau

The Hill Kinabalu is small guesthouse located 6km away from Kundasang. We overlook Ranau on one side & mount Kinabalu on the other. Our guest can enjoy the spacious compound & get a real feel of the fresh air.

There are a total of 4 rooms for up to 8 people altogether! Feel free to ask about them!

The Hill Kinabalu is a 5 acre compound located in Kundasang. We have a big dining hall & kitchen where guest can enjoy a view of Mount Kinabalu.

When you're a guest here. Feel free to use
1)Community/dining hall
2)Kitchen/BBQ pit
3)Dartboard?
4)All of the compound

Some of our FAQ's are

1)Alcohol are allowed.
2)All rooms come with their own private bathroom & balcony
3)The place is gated & has a 24 hour security staff
4)The road to the place is sealed. A lot of guest manage to come in Perodua Axia or Proton Saga
5)There will be a surcharge of RM10/person for kitchen use, only charged for guest who are cooking. This is one way for us to control the crowdedness.

Living here is pretty old school & family oriented. Theres no TV, so we enjoy the view, the air is cold so we end up having more steamboat than planned but overall, it's an escape. Away from the city rush. Just calm & private.

Potential hotspot!”

This place is full of potential. It’s a quiet and secluded place on a hilltop with spacious parking space and two available camping areas (the first hotel I’ve ever been to with such amenity). The room was clean and it came with a spacious balcony that served a view that overlooked a luscious green landscape and Kundasang town. It was very foggy the day I went so no Mt Kinabalu sighting. Overall I’m very happy with my stay at the hotel and I am planning to bring my family here for a long weekend stay, this time with a tent to see if I can survive the night sleeping in a tent.

Room with Nice View”

The room was very clean and tidy. It looks just like a normal hotel, but when you open the curtain, you have all the Mountain View for yourself in the balcony. The staff was super helpful as well. Note: There is no food served here. You will have to pack your own meal before coming or cook at the campsite.

Room with a sunrise view”

Check in was smooth, greeted by miss lucy and explained regarding nearby attractions. All staffs are friendly. Room was clean, well maintained. Hot shower working with good pressure. What you’ll like most regarding the room is the sun rise view. In the morning you’ll also get to see clearly peak of Mount Kinabalu (it’ll get cloudy around 8am onwards). Overall I’ll give 10/10.

All is about the view. Thanks to one lady (with the baby) that introduce us to the top viewpoint, because we did not know that the top got a nice place to take pictures. Even a bit too late because mount Kinabalu is already covered by the Cloud at that time. 😂 overall is nice, and this place is highly recommended.

Nice view and relaxing”

Staffs were kind and friendly. We arrived a bit early but the room was not ready yet. So they told us we could walk around the area and the place was great. We got room 108. We were able to park our car in front of the room which was convenient. Room was a bit small but got balcony. Somehow there's a walkway that meets our balcony so visitors could peek into our room? Other guests can be a bit loud because of the thin walls. Also heads-up to anyone wishing to stay, they require RM50 as deposit when checking in. The room was clean and comfortable. There's water heater to make tea/ coffee. Shower had hot water. Stayed there for 2 nights, but no daily cleaning service. Boleh la bos, improve sikit lagi. Will come back in the future. Overall, 8/10.

Due to traffic in KK, we arrived late at the place around 9:45pm but the host was kind enough to serve us eventho it way past check-in hour. The view is nice and the place was quiet. You can also park your car just in front of your room.

Superb View, Great Value!”

Even though the room we were given was facing the hills around Kundasang instead of Kinabalu, but the our 2 nights there were absolutely amazing. A great place to rest after a long hike. The road is very steep, so make sure that your car can handle that. Although there's no TV or WiFi, this is not the time to be connected to the world. At The Hills, you disconnect from everything, and that's what we did. Also, surroundings are well-maintained and clean. Will repeat!

Such a pleasant experience”

We only stayed one night but felt right at home almost immediately. The staff were efficient, helpful, and had the signature Sabahan warmth pouring from their fingertips. They were even kind enough to offer to reopen their reception office when they saw me walking by, even though it was past business hours. Will definitely be back again. Side note (but important for me): We were also greeted by two adorable kittens at our balcony when we checked into our room who kept us company the entire time. We could have easily kicked them out but they were too cute to turn away!
