This hotel is very well positioned in Kuching as it sits on the end of the waterfront which means there are lovely views from all the river side rooms. Staff were great and there is a lovely swimming pool which is well maintained. I have stayed there several times over many years and the hotel has recently been refurbished. More

We had five nights at this hotel. After day one I was ready to move, but decided it was not worth the hassle as I booked via Expedia, and sometimes that's not a sure thing. First the good: 1. Great location. I'm guessing the only nicer hotel in town right on the river. It was great having the river right... More

Grand Margherita Hotel is once a Holiday Inn but the franchise isn't renewed. This is a hotel that must work because it is actually owned by the State itself and therefore, you can imagine why it's centrally located by Kuching River and in the midst of all amenities. The staff is courteous, which comes naturally to Asians anyway. The room... More

It is in a very excellent location, right in the middle of town, surrounded by restaurants, fast foods, kopi tiams on all sides. It is also beside the Sarawak River. Also lots of shopping centres within walking distance, including a small supermarket just beside the hotel, basement of Sarawak Plaza. The rooms are Ok, the beds are nice and firm,... More

GM has to be one of the better 4 star hotels I have been to. The rooms are very modern and tidy, beds very comfy and bathrooms very nice. The bathrooms use Grohe fittings, this shows that the designer did not cut corners. I am very impressed. They have a pillow menu for you to select your choice of pillows.... More

My friend and I stayed at this hotel with our two teenagers while on a 10 day visit to Kuching. I have no hesitation in recommending this hotel. River view rooms were fantastic, clean and airy. Bathroom was immaculate. We appreciated the free bottled water every day. Only downside was that we all found the beds a bit too hard,... More
