This hotel is suitable for an overnight stay if you're catching an early flight after a Kinabatangan River cruise. The room was a bit dark, but everything else was fine. It has a cabin-style vibe with a small garden and a tiny pool. As for breakfast, it's just like a standard budget hotel breakfast, so don't expect too much. The staff were very enthusiastic.
The nearby Rainforest Discovery Centre (RDC) is very close and worth a visit, and you can also book a night tour there. As for the Sun Bear Conservation Centre and the Sepilok Orangutan Rehabilitation Centre, honestly, only go if you're really bored and have money to spare! Xiaohongshu (a Chinese social media platform) really misleads people; anyone who goes will regret it. Once you've been, you'll truly understand the quality of the zoos back home.
The Sun Bear Centre just cages a few bears. The orangutan centre is no different: everyone sits in a glass enclosure watching a group of monkeys (not orangutans!) eat bananas and vegetables on an outdoor platform – basically watching them ”mukbang.” Then you watch a few orangutans ”mukbang” on another open-air platform. We couldn't bear to watch it. After seeing how wild animals live on the Kinabatangan River, these scenes were just unbearable.

I made a last-minute decision to visit Sepilok and, with limited options, ended up booking this hotel. Overall, it's decent, but don't expect too much from the room facilities, as it was built in 2006. I recommend bringing your own slippers and toiletries, as they aren't provided proactively.
However, the hotel environment itself is quite nice. There's supposedly a good trail within the resort, but I couldn't find it anywhere – it might be a very rustic path, and I didn't dare explore further after the rain. It's also very close to the sun bear and orangutan centers, within walking distance. The hotel check-in starts at 2 PM, and the orangutan center's feeding time begins at 3 PM, but the sun bear sanctuary closes at 3:30 PM. So, if you plan to visit both attractions after checking in, I suggest heading to the sun bear sanctuary first. Alternatively, you could visit both attractions in the morning before checking into the hotel.
The hotel's night walk was pretty good; I was initially worried about safety, but it turned out to be quite easy. That said, it's still wise to bring proper gear.

A treehouse in the jungle, exactly what we were looking for! Mosquito nets in good condition, an open-air (private) bathroom, and the sound of crickets to fall asleep to. The common areas are pleasant, the welcome was cheerful, and the food was very healthy.

The location is a bit far from the city center, but it has a large parking lot and a gas station nearby, which is great for self-driving travelers staying overnight. The room design is a bit retro, but all the amenities are there and it's very clean. Highly recommended for friends who are on a road trip!

Anonymous UserClean hotel. Comfortable. Close to restaurants, so it's easy to find food. Mydin is only about 3-4km away.
