I arrived quite late in the evening (~8pm) and proceed to check in. Check in was hassle free and fast. The receptionist even asked whether we need an airport shuttle for the next day which I politely declined as I have my own transport. But I do request for a take away breakfast. Normal breakfast time is 7am. If you... More

I myself is in the service industry. The way they start centainly need some improvement and the management need to check and get the staff serious in the work. The pick-up were not in time and the staff did not offer any explaination nor apology for the delay. Upon check-in there were no greeting from the front office staff which... More

Good place to stay if you have an early am flight to catch since it's so close to the airport and offers a free airport shuttle. Room was clean and pretty spacious. Staff was friendly and helpful. It's close to some hawker stands that sell pretty cheap local eats.

I booked a hotel room here as an event was taking place in the same hotel the very next morning. To my surprise, the room was super duper clean and the free airport shuttle was waiting when we arrived, about 30 minutes later than scheduled at the airport. The local breakfast looked greasy and unappetizing however. Nevertheless there were many... More

This hotel is ideal if you have an early flight since it is super close to the airport. The hotel is not located in the city center of Kota Kinabalu but in an area a little outside but it is entirely possible to walk from the hotel to the city if you want. However, if you don't want to walk,... More

I stayed at Megah D'Aru Hotel recently for one night between flights. I contacted them last minute in hopes of getting airport pickup and immediately I received a warm reply from Felix, the hotel manager. As a long-term traveler staying frequently in basic guesthouses, my room was great. Great English cable t.v. channels (BBC), a large bathroom, good Air-Con and... More

We had an unforced layover in K.K. so we had a friend that lives in K.K. book this Hotel last minute for us and are we glad he did. The Free shuttle is a plus. The Staff is very friendly. Th room was very clean but not with an odour of cleansers, just a well maintained type of clean. The... More

We stayed at Megah D´ Aru one night when having very late Air Asia arrival and departing early next morning. Free airport transfer was reliable and convenient, but the hotel is very basic. Our room was not ready (one extrabed was missing) despite our late arrival. Toilet was practically out of order and we were adviced to use public toilets... More
