From arrivals to departure. The hotel upholds itself with standard, style and service. To Mr Suresh (GM). The front desk (Shahrul, Rozia, Rongzi and Chee) The F&B staff (Yuvan and Noavelle) are the few that I can name and many others which deserve a say in how amazing they are at their work. Thank you LE Meridien KK for making it all worth wild. Will be back soon.

We stayed in 9 different hotels in 19 days of our holiday in Malaysia, Singapore and Borneo. We stayed in this lovely 5 star hotel for two nights. Our room was on the 11th floor - unfortunately facing the wrong side. Serviced by four key controlled lifts. Air conditioning very effective in lobby and room. Bath with shower and separate rain shower. Room well lit and very clean. Two double beds in room. Breakfast decent.

This was my first time staying at this hotel in KK. Location was good, rooms was excellent. Staff customer service was excellent. The buffet breakfast and lunch, and room service order was very good. My room came with access to club lounge, hence convenient for snacks & drinks. The sunset lounge is another good location to get some drinks, socialise and watch the sunset. Overall, an enjoyable stay and will be my choice when I visit KK next.

We arrived early in the morning and got booked in quickly which is really good as the check in time wasn’t until the afternoon. The hotel has a lovely big reception with lots of staff to help. A very nice clean hotel with lifts that work really well. We booked a Seaview room and the room was lovely, amazing view overlooking the bay. Nice comfy bed with good pillows in a good sized room. The room was equipped with 3 plug sockets so no need for electrical adapters. The windows didn’t open as it was a high floor but nevertheless a lovely view. It rained a lot on our first day. Lovely bathroom with all the toiletries that you would need plus slippers and bathrobes. The room also had a hairdryer and a vanity mirror with an excellent rainfall shower. The amenities at the hotel were fantastic. The swimming pool was open till late in the evening and had a cover over it so you could still enjoy the area if it rained. The gym was really good and has all the equipment that you need. It was a separate area for men and Women to enjoy spa facilities and in the ladies had a lovely Jacuzzi, which I had all to myself. Lovely!! The staff were 2nd to none and most of the staff we interacted with were in the club lounge where we had breakfast, daytime and evening snacks and all day drinks. A special mention to Regina and Noava in the club lounge. They really looked after us and insured we got whatever we needed. The food quality was very good during the evening. They served noodles that were freshly cooked and lots of other hot food during the evening. It was a lovely place to hang out and enjoy the views. A whole floor top floor was delicates to the club lounge. Snacks, cakes and some hot food was again served in the afternoon which was just right for afternoon snacks. The evening cocktails were great with all sorts of drinks for every palette. Breakfast in the lounge was lovely where you could order omelettes made to order and various other breakfasts and anything you wanted to eat for breakfast. Melson joe and joviannah ensured that food was brought promptly to the table which was nice and hot. The chef was very good and talented, and made a special dish for my husband, which he thoroughly enjoyed. The club lounge offered soft drinks, tea and coffee all day. Just a really nice place to relax. Overall a top club lounge which I would recommend to all. The hotel has a rooftop bar which is right on the top floor and a lovely view of the whole of kota Kinabalu. The staff were very attentive and I’d like to mention a special thanks to Arjenien. He was a funny guy and was always making conversation and keeping everybody happy. The hotel itself is right in the middle of town with the Filipino market opposite which is a wonderful place to visit full of life, full of goods and full of food its a must to visit. I would return to this hotel tomorrow we had a very lovely stay for 3 days and wish it was longer. Thank you le Meridian for a fabulous stay.…

We had an amazing 3 night stay at Le Meridien KK. We found everyone to be very welcoming and friendly. However, we couldn’t leave a review without mentioning Noavalee the shining star in the club lounge. We found her to be a warm and friendly individual who always went above and beyond to make our time there enjoyable. She always made time to ensure that we had all that we needed and always delivered with a smile despite the lounge being busy at times and being run off her feet. She always made sure that we and the other guests were well looked after and took the time out to have pleasant conversations with us all. She is true asset to the hotel’s hospitality team and we can’t thank her and the rest of the staff for thoroughly spoiling us on our visit.
