Stayed in a club room and had a great time. Good location for town. Just opposite the fish market. I would recommend the food at the night market which is held just over the road. The barbecued tuna was the best I have ever tasted.

What I liked about the hotel :
(i) the staff were courteous and friendly, always ready to lend a helping hand
(ii) rooms were big and clean
(iii) food was good although a little on the pricey side
(iv) location - you just can't beat the location. Located near shopping malls and restaurants - all within walking distance. Taxi fares are very expensive in Kota Kinabalu.

What I disliked about the hotel:
(i) rooms are a little dated
(ii) the hotel lobby was kind of warm

Overall, my stay there was pleasant. There is a bit of a fishy smell coming from the market nearby but it is not overpowering. It is worth paying for a sea-view room upgrade.

Just got back from 4 days at the Le Meridien KK, very enjoyable.

The staff at this hotel are some of the best I've encountered in Asia, just first rate.

The hotel is getting a little dated, they're already begun the process. If the lobby and club lounge are any indication it will be beautiful when it's finished.

Don't hesitate book this hotel, great place in a great location. I really enjoyed being able to walk to the waterfront restaurants every night for dinner.

I booked the Le Meridien as it ranked number 4 hotel in KK and received fairly good reviews. Having now stayed at both the Le Meridien in Phuket and in KK, I have to say the one in KK really does not live up to the Le Meridien name.

The price of the room was on par with Singapore hotels, and that's saying something. Although the room was huge, the bed was atrocious and the electrical outlet did not work. Every time I boiled some water, the switch would trip. Finally I gave up and asked housekeeping for hot water instead. The furnishing in the room and the bathroom could do with an uplift.

The sea view was nice and the staff very friendly and helpful.
