    Excellent hospitality
    This is the first time I comeback to KK after 23 years and I chose Hyatt Regency to stay for 2 nights. At the reception I was attended by Emily, she’s a very nice lady and very courteous. My room is on the 12th floor and the room was facing the sea, just what I needed for this…

    A warm welcome at the Hyatt Regency
    This hotel is ideally located for any traveller exploring Borneo. The surroundings are poor so you get a false impression of the hotel, but once you access the building, a warm welcome awaits you. The rooms are spacious, although, be mindful, as the hotel is under…

    Tired and money orientated
    First of all, this hotel is all about squeezing money from it’s customer. I checked in and requested breakfast and was charged a walk-in rate (non-guest). I protested and only got a mediocre concession. Not a way to treat a guest! Other than that, this hotel is tired. Rooms are…

    Can you go on tours to see orang-utans from here?
    Hello! TA prevents the inclusion of links, but I found a tour for you from KK to the sanctuary and back. It's a day-trip. Google this language exactly and you will locate the site: "Early morning, transfer to airport to board a plane for Sandakan (via MH2042/MH3093) to visit the world’s largest Orang Utan Sanctuary. Meet and greet at the airport and drive for about half an hour to Sepilok Orang-Utan Rehabilitation Centre where orphaned and injured Orang-Utan brought to Sepilok to be rehabilitated to return and fend for themselves back to the wild. Sepilok is a primary lowland forest; a fine showcase of Borneo’s remaining rainforest. Witness the 10:00AM feeding of Orang-Utan from a platform in the forest. Watch the 25 minutes scheduled video documentary show. Stop at local restaurant for lunch and at 2:00 PM proceed for a city tour and explore the various landmarks of Sandakan, which may include the Central Market, the most amazing variety of fresh seafood and agricultural products, Sim-Sim Water Village where houses are all built close to the water surface while observing the fascinating view of the sea, visit Puh Jih Syh Buddhist Temple which offers a panoramic view of Sandakan Bay situated on the hilltop of Tanah Merah. After tour, transfer to airport for your evening flight (MH3094 ETD1810hrs) back to Kota Kinabalu. Meal Included: Lunch" You might ask your Hyatt Hotel concierge if they can get you to the airport at KK with shuttle service, and also pick you up. It's a day trip to Sabah. Enjoy!

    Can I get items laundered while staying here?
    They have laundry service for a fee. But if you are a Hyatt Gold member, you will get two pieces laundry free per day (But need to double check with the hotel if this offer is still valid though)
