This Novotel Hotel at 1Borneo located on the outskirts of Kota Kinabalu is a very good hotel! The room assigned to me was very modern and all the amenities and facilities were just wonderful. It was very spacious! One of the biggest I have ever stayed in. The bathroom is also very spacious. Usually when the bedroom area is large... More

I stayed here during the year end new year season where they have this count down party below organized by the Ice Bar. The hotel is good, with this nice room and services where we called at the middle of the night for bed sheet change, and came with the 2 cleaner reached within 5 mins with that friendly smile....

The staff at this hotel and the company AGODA who I booked through could not have been more helpful. An extra layer of curtain weight was installed in my room after I mentioned I hadn't felt safe elsewhere travelling alone. The restaraunt staff were very helpful when I mentioned I couldn't eat gluten. I was shown around the buffet by... More

Location is a minus although it is located at one of KK biggest malls. Too far from downtown KK where all the parties and foods are. Taxi ride is also expensive. Rooms are big and clean. However, some maintainence are needed especially in the room I stayed for 3 days. Curtain railing loosened and fell off (it was fixed promptly).... More

I booked my family in Novotel 1 Borneo KK for a standard room. I was surprised to see that the room was larger than what I expected. There were also two complimentary double beds placed alongside our King size bed for my kids. The hotel staff were very professional and efficient. The only thing thing I didn't like was the... More

We landed here because we had to shorten our stay at the Nexus Villas, due to power failure. This is where a 4 stars could be much better than a 5 stars...! We were lucky to be upgraded in a suite and our kids stayed in a superior room. It was for all of us like a refreshment. Local hotels... More
