The heritage hotel in the center of the center, right on the Gaya street. Very close to all the new and old food stalls, groceries and wineries. Also very close to the Jesselton Jetty, 10 min walk at most, where you can have your island hopping day trips by yourself. The staff are very professional and friendly. The decorations and vibe of this hotel is good. Air con and water if working fine, wifi is fast. Room is spacious Grab taxi is easy to hail and u can easily go yo Tanjung Aru for sunset then back.

beautiful boutique hotel at a wonderful location right in front of the famous & happening Gaya Street! the staff is very friendly & helpful. check in & check out is a breeze. the room is huge with super comfortable bed, excellent wi-fi, aircon & rain shower. the bathroom is beautiful. it has elevator even though it's only 3 floors high (which is a welcome relief for me who had huge & many luggages 😁). the housekeeping is timely & spot on.
