LLingbingxueerThe hotel is currently undergoing renovations, and the front desk service was incredibly slow. It took a full 40 minutes just to check in. I arrived at 4 PM, but my room wasn't ready until past 6 PM, by which time the sun had already set. To make matters worse, the buggy service was suspended due to heavy rain, and there was a long queue just to borrow an umbrella, leaving guests to walk back to their rooms in the downpour.
However, the beautiful sunset made up for it! The sky's colors were even more stunning and vibrant because of the rain. Many non-hotel guests even came specifically to watch the sunset.
The breakfast spread was plentiful, and even though it was crowded, they refilled dishes promptly. There were also performances during the dinner buffet. Overall, the service attitude was excellent.

GGuest UserStayed at Cititel Express Kota Kinabalu recently and had a really pleasant experience! ✨
The hotel is in a very strategic location right in the city center, making it super convenient to walk to nearby food spots, shopping areas, and attractions. The rooms were clean, comfortable, and nicely maintained after the renovation. I also appreciated how peaceful the atmosphere was despite being in a busy area.
Staff were friendly, helpful, and check-in was smooth. Great value for money if you're looking for a comfortable stay in KK without overspending.
Perfect for both business trips and short getaways. Would definitely stay here again! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

GGuest UserThis place is great, mainly because of its super convenient location. It's really close to Gaya Street and just a short walk to Suria Sabah shopping mall. Basically, all those trendy spots you see on Xiaohongshu are just a stone's throw away. Other reviews mentioned it being noisy at night, but I stayed for 5 days and didn't experience that at all. Uh, the room was also quite clean. Housekeeping was prompt with tidying up and replenishing amenities. There's a convenience store right downstairs too.

LLove CoffeeMy first stay here and I think would be my last too. Was actually requested a quiet room but still giving the room which facing the contrustion site. Noise of the construction site was up to 10pm+ and 5am+ the prayer from the nearby mosque will make you jump!
Impressive with the location but not the room. Furnitures in room quite old but still acceptable, but cleanliness and maintenance was terrible.
1) Water leaks out from shower room to walkway via the wall.
2) Old and dirty toilet with mold
3) Malfunctioning light bulb
4) Stains on the towel ( sticky like chocolate, like unwashed)
5) Ants on table & bed!
6) Loosen door lock
7) Dirty chair

GGuest UserOverall, our stay was very good – actually, better than expected! We had a lovely balcony with a nice view. The pool itself was nice – perfect for relaxing after a day of exploring.
The apartment was clean and had everything we needed. Staff was helpful. After we checked out, we accidentally left some clothes in the washing machine, and they kindly recovered them for us. That kind of thoughtful service makes all the difference!
Downstairs, there are plenty of food options, so you’ll never go hungry.
I’d definitely recommend this place for couples or small families looking for a comfortable, well-located base. Great value for money.

MMongGrThe location is good. Not that near to town center. Parking is definitely a challenge since its opposite a shopping mall. Traffic rather congested around hotel. Nearby parking is at least Rm6 per entry.
There are mosquito in the room and I dont know how they got there. Room cleanliness is acceptable. Swimming pool and gym facility is decent. Sufficient for light usage.
Buffet breakfast is rather bland (I stayed for 5 nights include weekend) all the same repetitive food.
Cost wise i think is worthy since the price include breakfast.
Picture attach are the food I found at the shopping mall beside.

GGuest UserThis hotel is good, right by the beach. The room is large and spacious, with all the amenities. The slightly worn bathroom door isn't something I'd consider a drawback. There were no insects. I really think this is the place to stay, especially since it's close to the airport. I couldn't find anywhere to buy food nearby, though. You can take a taxi to the central market or the Filipino market. I also liked that they checked me in in the morning, despite my early arrival. In Kuala Lumpur, I had to wait around until 2 PM to check in.

FFrancisca YongEasy access to parking with RM2.00 charges only. Need to inform the counter before going out from the car park. But the room are quit dusty and old. Bought my own room perfume to get rid of a weird smell from the room. Room was big but the room environment was not pleasant. Toilet was clog and I checked out earlier, TRIP made it easy and i manage to get a refund because i change my schedules. Suppose to check out on 25th but change check out date to 24th.
