Hyatt KK !
Advantages: Not far from town Disadvantages: If you are looking for a beach resort-hotel, this is not the place
...be called Jesselton Town)
Hyatt Kota Kinabalu is located next to a shopping mall, Wisma Merdeka. Location wise, it is a good hotel because a major shopping mall is right next to it and within walking distance, you could reach the sunday morning market which is a popular tourist spot. The hotel is about 15-20 minutes away from the KK International Airport. (Note: This is not the airport where AirAsia, Asia's budget airline, lands) From the airport, ... ...is a boutique hotel with Hyatt equivalent rates.
KK is heavily crowded with tourists and there are also many different races (Indonesian, Chinese, Malay, Indians, Filipinos etc) staying there.
I might stay at a different hotel for my next visit even though I am not unsatisfied with this hotel the reason being other hotels have clearer sea water where you can see beautiful coral-reefs without even going out to the islands. Of course, the rate is ...

sunway lagoon resort
Advantages: excellent value for money Disadvantages: if you hate shopping malls-stay away
This resort is out of this world! It is like pulling up to a mini Las Vegas.Strings of neon lights,lots of people,restaurants,bars line the outside of it that is because this resort hotel is attached to a massive shopping complex, waterpark, ice rink.It actually has anything you can think of and is perfect for family, shoppers, people wanting relaxing time, nightlife and good food. It is excellent value for money, the rooms higher up than level 10 ... ...if you are staying longer(for business etc).The staff are very helpful and welcoming, they will know you by name within a week. The hotels restaurant has a buffet breakfast, dinner and lounge bar or you can keep walking straight through to an array of restaurants in the shopping mall. It is situated about 20minutes in a taxi into KL and the hotel can provide you a taxi immediately but you are actually better walking round to the front of the hotel ...

Review of Sunway Lagoon Resort Hotel, Petaling Jaya

Value for Money Quality of Rooms Standard of Service Cleanliness Quality of Facilities |
beautiful view, shame about the hairdryer
Advantages: on the waterfront, good pool, friendly service Disadvantages: dated rooms
Stayed for 4 nights with family, and were met by an army of porters and workers whose sole responsibility was to smile at us. The staff are welcoming and public areas very modern, but the rooms are bland and dated, with enormous yellow hairdryers the size of a pillow. The pool is great to unwind in the afternoon, and breakfast is a sprawling buffet of choice, with waffle, noodle, dim sum and omelette stations. We, like most other guests were there ...

Bliss in the double ensuite
Advantages: Huge room, own bathroom with bath and shower, very cheap Disadvantages: Simple breakfast, miserable receptionist, bit of a walk to bus station
...getting a cab to our hotel as there were a load of drivers calling out at us to give us a ride. It took about 15 minutes from here to get to Hotel Mingood which is in the historical Georgetown (the main town in Penang). The drive is an interesting one taking you past what is typical Malaysia - a run down and falling apart shed with washing hanging up on a line outside and a dirty dog sleeping in the mud (hard to believe this is someone's home) whilst ... ...the bus. The hotel is a 10 minute walk to a shopping centre, supermarket and New World Park which is a fab new outdoor complex (opened in January 08) with a load of restaurants ranging from expensive and fancy cuisine, affordable bars and cafes or a cheap food court. There's also a stage where entertainment is held. A 20 minute walk in the opposite direction will take you to the main road and the bus station where every bus on the island stops. On ...

Fathers Guest House, great place in the Cameron Highlands
Advantages: Location, views, surroundings Disadvantages: Disappointing dorm room
Fathers Guest house has the perfect location on a small hill overlooking the tiny town of Tanah Rata in the Cameron highlands. Situated outside the town, but only a 3 minute walk into it, it has fantastic views and is tranquil but still has access to any activities the town has to offer. If you call the owners in advance letting them known when you will arrive then they will collect you from the town and save the walk up the hill with heavy bags. ... ...of the lowland areas and Fathers definitely offers a place to chill out. The guesthouse sits in its own grounds with vegetable gardens and flower gardens that are well-tended and has a path cut out of the hill through gardens and then wild areas into the town making it a pleasant walk instead of going along the road. The main house is a colonial building that has largely been preserved as it was but modernised where need be. There is also all the ...
