The hotel front staff is friendly and helpful. The location of the hotel is good. The sunset view from the rooftop is so beautiful. In addition, I had a great time with my child because I could see the take-off scene of the aircraft up close. There are many useful stores such as restaurants and marts near the hotel, so it is convenient. It is very close to the airport, so it is convenient.
If you pay for the deposit with your card at check-in, it cannot be canceled immediately at check-out, and it is a pity that it takes about two weeks. Most hotels cancel the card approval right away at check-out.
I'm waiting for the deposit I paid with my credit card to be canceled properly.

Luma Hotel was incredible and very clean! It had a pleasant fragrance throughout. The bellboy and attendant were outstanding. The hotel is conveniently located next to Imago Shopping Mall—just a short walk across a bridge. It’s also near several convenience stores and Chagee. The staff provided excellent service, assisting us by storing our luggage while we waited for our flight. Our room was spacious and comfortable.

I would just rate it like a 4 stars hotel. Don’t expect too much, and it will be great.
Breakfast just normal, waitstaff was a bit inattentive, not sure which table bring us to.
didn’t book a seaview room, but my room was totally a blocked view 🤣. Can only see a huge rooftop of other buildings. But the room is clean, cleaning service quite good, I asked for more water and they did gave me more.
One of the highlight could be their pool.
Great sea view, I enjoyed it a lot.
location is decent, still need to walk a bit to reach the main city area.

It's been the fifth day since I checked out. The deposit hasn't been refunded to me yet. I don't know if it's because the lipstick accidentally rubbed on their towels, so the deposit is not refunded. Is their towels worth rm100? I can wash it off when I rub it on my clothes, but they can't.
The room is quite comfortable and well-equipped, but there is a lot of dust, and the sound insulation is not good. I was awakened by the sound of the next room in the middle of the night.
距离退房到今天第五天了 deposit还没有退给我,不知道是不是因为口红不小心蹭到他们的毛巾上 所以不退deposit了 他们的毛巾价值rm100吗?我蹭到自己的衣服上都能洗掉 而他们洗不掉

Front desk service is best, friendly with most smiling face, always greeting and friendly chat to customer, bedding matters a bit soft and some spring is not well in condition, but ovell room amenities is good. However, I really wondered why a 5 stars Hotel the restaurant all size plate, bowl, even cups are so so oily, sticky, food mark, stains on almost all pieces of them, I keep on looking for more clean one but sad to said is no one is clean, really very sticky and oily, hope the restaurant can look serious on this matter, I can said I never seen such dirty plate, even I go to 2 or 3 star hotel, the plate is more clean then Le Meridien, but food and beverage is good, I love the service can custome order our favourite fresh fruit juice and coffee

Great things
- The location of the hotel is within walking distance to the Gaya Street Monday/Night Market. Also very centralised to places you want to go in Kota Kinabalu
- Good enough facilities for a short stay ard the city area. There's no swimming pool, bath tub (If you are looking for a resort type stay then maybe not). But otherwise, we had a good stay
- Very prompt and good service. Some issue with the safe box and fridge but the hotel service is good and fast to resolve the issue
There's no hotel parking. You have to use the public parking area (most of the time we are able to find one), but need to prepare parking coupons.

The room is very clean and tidy. They provide basic amenities. They collect RM50 for deposit and return after checkout (only receive cash). Nearby many restaurants so easy to find food. Smooth checkin and the staff very accommodating.
Minor: the drain in the bathroom draining VERY slow, so we shower with ‘flooded’ floor. The hotel should check if there is clogging.

Purposely pick at the sea view room for the stay. It did not disappoint me. The room is okay, as we mostly spend our time outside more than in the room. Just during sleeping, there is a loud noise coming from above which affected our sleep. Which we couldn’t rest well but overall is okay. The host is kind and try to help. Thank you

AAdam AshraffI have never stayed as good as 5 stars hotel such this Hyatt Regency in KK. Starting from reception, buttler, and front desk- all are so good in order. The receptionist who check me in was very helpful. The room perfect. Hot water is good, room is very spacefull and stunning. The decorations are just perfect, migh be Merry Chritsmas is coming. Just next time, maybe i will stay sea view. Better as have great view of KK ocean view.
GGuest UserHotel is in a good central location. Staff are friendly and quick to assist. I reserved a room last minute and was still able to get a good deal for a good size room that was clean. Bed was comfortable. Free parking in the lot right in front of the hotel.
FFaleinshahPerfect for solo traveler. Great location & eateries everywhere. No icebox nor iron/ iron board in room. Room not soundproof & bit smaller for 2 person. 10 or 15 minutes walk to Suria Sabah mall. Might want to buy your own drinking/ mineral water, only provided 1 bottle.
AAnonymous UserLocation is at Gaya street Kota Kinabalu. If you're staying during weekend, it privileged you for Gaya Sunday Market and night market. Hotel is near to shopping malls, pharmacy, eateries.
GGB16Good hotel.Jotel been well upgraded. Look new. Reception frarah excellant. Meet director of room Bernard, amazing guy and wealth of knowledge, humble and good public relation.
Room 830 only issue was TV all the channel need to adjust or fix screen not clear (running line).Young
Bell boy with spetical amazing(selfie photo) . Good knowledge on local area.. I love your rain shower wonderfully cold water shower the best among other hotels.
Did not have any photos A I am return guest.
See you soon.
HHamsirexcellent experience, the staffs very nice and friendly.they offered me to upgrade to bigger size room but I refuse bcoz of my child and my wife already exhausted and we can't wait for another 1 hour for upgraded room. The room was awesome and clean, this is new hotel and the surrounding was marvelous. Nice sea view. Easy to access to pasar Tanjung Kinabalu and malls such as suria Sabah and centre point sabah
MMr TravellerNice hotel to stay but on basic need as they claimed they area trying their best in accommodating patron's need with affordable room rate. So all amenities will charged according to our need.
BBernard SchumacherLocation is great but the place itself looks old, there's a slight leakage in the room that we booked due to the heavy rain, the bathroom looks old. Service is fine, they do provide nice breakfast. Suggestion for improvement would be to renovate the place and make it look newer. One thing I really hate was the traffic noise in the middle of the night, I had a hard time sleeping because I kept on listening to those motorbike that always keep on passing by the hotel with their loud exhaust which really made it hard for me to sleep.
BBenjamin Sch.The Borneo Beach Villa is an unbeatable spot for a nice calm vacation. The beach is just beautiful although you fill find plastic stuff here and there. For younger (and older) children it’s perfect since the waterline is flat and you can walk easily 30-50 meters into the water. The waves are nice. there is no lifeguard on duty but you don't need one.
Don’t expect a new hotel for this price. We had nice beach front villa at the southern end of the site. At low tide you could walk the stays directly into the water, at high tide you need to go to the beach 100-200m. The sunset is beautiful. Hotel location would be 10 of 5 stars!
Make sure your Grab app works so you can order food since the restaurant is quite pricy for the offerings. Also getting away with a taxi will need some time and Grab. Go shopping and bring your own snacks and drinks upfront to enjoy the evenings. The breakfast is okay for the 3 days we stayed there but lacks some variety. They have a nice egg station for omelette and other things.
You are in nature so you need to be prepared for mosquitoes, sandflies and a cockroach here and there. But this is nothing which is really dramatic and can happen at the best places. We had all required sprays and used them when necessary. Some outdoor mosquito smoke lamps can also be useful.
Overall the family was very happy about our time there. The house is older but all items were functional. In case of support the technician was there in 15-30 minutes.
For the low price it’s a good place with a wonderful beach but if you don’t want to compromise quality furnishings or need nightlife this is not a suitable spot.
