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

We got the standard room for a cheaper price.. there are some of time when the aeroplane passing by and the loud noise may cause dis-comfortable but it stopped in the evening... More

Flight was cancelled on our way to Kuala Lumpur and we were put up at the hotel by Malaysia Airlines. Clean rooms, comfortable and convenient location. Great choice of supermarkets, restaurants, local coffeeshops with local flavours and taxi's and a bus stand to catch a bus to downtown KK...would def. stay here again. Don't expect 5 stars..it's a no frills... More

We used this hotel as a stopover to our next destination (early morning flight next day). This was a good decision because of the availability of free transport to/from hotel, adequate rooms incl. airco, good restaurant around the corner and all sort of shops in this little neighbourhood so we got an electricity adaptor, sunscreen lotion at the small supermarket,...

This hotel is located within 5 minutes of Terminal 2 of Kota Kinabalu Airport, and indeed it offers FREE pick-up service when you arrive. Make sure you tell them your arrival flight and time when you book. Same thing too when you need to go to the airport for departure. That's a saving of RM30 taxi fare from Airport to... More

It is just 3 mins driving away from KK Terminal 2 airport, but the late night taxi can charge over RM25 so be aware that. The room design and ammenities are simple yet provide all the essentials of guests require. Toilet is quite clean. And that is free wifi in room! They do provide very simple breakfast but it is...

As the new hotel of choice for Malaysia Airlines travelers in KK with flight problems, the Megah D'Aru Hotel turned out to be a pleasant, if no-frills, overnight stay in Kota Kinabalu. For travelers with early flights, or those who don't care to go into downtown KK, this was a great option with free airport transportation. Read on for more:... More
