1. I chose the hotel for a business trip via Booking.com as the budget allowed was quite low. The hotel received a quite high rating on the platform.
2. The rate was around RM200 per night, which was amazing considering it was a school holiday season. All other branded or chain hotels had a rate reaching RM700 to RM1k, which was atrocious but they were all 4-star and 5-star.
3. The hotel is located very close to the city centre. The landmark is Plaza Shell, which is the opposite of a roundabout.
4. The hotel is within walking distance of the city centre. There are many eateries and shops around the vicinity, which helps if you don’t have any private transportation.
5. I checked in around 3:30 PM, right after landing in KK. The hotel staff helped me find a parking spot at the roadside. There are no dedicated parking spots at the hotel. Parking is at the roadside, and you are subjected to the parking rate by the municipality (KK City Hall).
6. I learned this the hard way — via a parking fine. It would be great if the hotel staff informed me about this.
7. The check-in process was smooth. I was given a room on the 4th floor. The trees block the view of the city. If you want the city view, you need to request a higher floor (8th floor and above). I was glad I didn’t request for a higher floor. More about it below.
8. The staff were friendly. They greeted me with smiles everywhere which made me feel welcome.
9. There are a couple of elevators. Only one lift required card access. This was a security issue.
10. The lobby was small but clean. The lift lobby is a few steps higher. The AC vent produced condensation, forcing the hotel staff to put a rag and wet floor signage most of the time I stayed there.
11. The room was quite small but beautiful. Spaces were utilised efficiently. There was no centralised AC, only a split unit, but it was powerful. The bed and pillows were comfortable. The colour scheme used green and goldish brown, resembling Four Points by Sheraton Chinatown KL.
12. The bathroom was small, but the amenities were quite good and paraben-free. I noticed that the shower area was mouldy. I told the reception about it, and Housekeeping scrubbed the bathroom clean.
13. The TV has all the local TV channels plus a few cable channels. It is a smart TV, but the response is slow.
14. Breakfast is at the hotel’s restaurant on Level 1. Due to the small space, there were two sections of the restaurant. However, the kitchen and buffet line is only on one side. You have to present your breakfast buffet coupon to have your meals.
15. The buffet spread did not offer many choices, but the foods were made fresh. The staff was around 5-6 people each time, and they were active and busy ensuring the tables were clean and food and cutlery were replenished. They used Sabah tea, a local product. There was no juice, only cordials.
16. On days 2 to 4 of my stay, one of the lifts broke down. This significantly increased waiting time, especially during breakfast. I had to use the staircase to go down to the restaurant, as the lift kept getting full before reaching my floor.
17. Overall, it was an average stay due to bathroom hygiene on the first day, lift issues and the lack of variety in the breakfast buffet. Besides that, the hotel provides a great reason to stay with good values.

Nice stay close to the city, convenient location, comfortable room, basic but delicious breakfast.

This is our second stay at king park, last trip was about 7 years ago. We feel very welcomed by the friendly staffs, the hotel is quiet, clean and cosy, the overall service and stay quality is maintained well as per our last stay, we are happy with it. We also love the breakfast buffet, it has improved from the last trip, simple yet very delicious. The only part we would like to bring out is the shower water will spill over to the toilet bowl area, hope this can be improved. The hotel is within 5-10min walking distance to Gaya street with lots of nice eateries, or you may take grab which cost only RM5.

Great service & Good Stay at King Park

I thought a small and old hotel but when I enter the lobby, my expectation are change! The ambiance, lighthing and  decoration are nice. 

When I enter the room,  room are nice with lighting.

The staff are friendly and kind. They keep smile and i feel soo warm. 

Will  repeat soon.

Nice hotel and warm staff 😃

It is a centralised hotel where we could get to nearby shopping centres and market place plus Gaya street by foot.
The hotel staffs and Front desk staffs were efficient and extremely helpful, always willing to help with big smiles. The rooms were tidy and clean, nice setting. The breakfast everyday was great, with a view of outside hotel from the first floor, where you could see the world go by. Nice and extremely convenient place to be. Thank you hotel staffs, your service towards customers were excellent.

Conveniently hotel, wonderful staffs

THE WORST HOTEL I STAY, many clubs nearby and they play loud music until 3:30am. Called the reception and they are not willing to help. Keep claiming “it is not their fault, both side also have clubs so no any room change” Room is horrible, obvious stains on the chair and towel, mould is everywhere in the toilet, water flooding in the bathroom because the drain is blocked. TV is just a decoration, not even working.  IT IS MUCH WORSE THAN A MOTEL. 
Dear management, If you cannot deal with your neighbour, please upgrade your room construction, install the noise resistance on the window. 

AVOID THIS VERY NOISY HOTEL

The hotel is tired especially in the hallways leading to the rooms. However the rooms are clean and spacious. Tv along with tea and coffee making facilities are an added bonus. Based on other reviews I only booked one night and unfortunately the reviews were correct, the WIFI IS TERRIBLE. The breakfast was also not worth the money with toast being the only western option and not even any fresh milk for the coffee. This hotel is on average RM25 more than other hotels offering the same facilities. Not worth the money.

Bad WiFi, bad breakfast. Not worth the money

Whenever I've booked online with reasonable rate, I always have the feelings the hotel mgmt will allocate an out of order room or half past six room hence to my surprise, I really got this kind of room. I am not a person very much fuss about it but still absurd me why whenever advertising such a nice room, and when checking in, it could be the worst room ever. Let me furnish the defects which I noticed in the room.. First of all, the flush doesn't work at all cuz the water leak and does not stay in the compartment, room smelly, TV did not have much channels and they still use the 80's style kind of TV, carpet dusty, torn, wet, bedsheets seems to be old, bugs in the room. The only thing looks better and satisfied is the air conditioner. Placed me next to an Iron Room which several times hearing slamming door and disturbed my sleep. I hope the Housekeeping and Engineering department could really rectify the room defects before selling to other customers. Hope to be back again. Tks 

Unexpected. Pathetic 

I used to stay in this hotel, until recently.
From good to worse.
The room rate is quite low, compared to most hotels in this area.

The staff are friendly and polite.
No doubt about it.

Breakfast, enough to fill up an empty stomach and to start the day.

I must agree with others who commented that the hotel is poorly managed.

Carpet at the corridor, some areas are soaked with rained. Discoloured. and worst of all, spots of mold. May cause health issue.

Some areas, the paint are cracked.

Toilet bowl atained with rust.

Wifi? Yes. it is there somewhere. But cannot connect. At least throughout my stay.

Should you avoid this hotel?
If you have the budget to stay elsewhere, please do.
If you worry about your health, avoid it.

I hope the managment can do smething about this hotel.

Location wise, strategic, eateries, are just around the block.
Few minutes walk to the famous Philipine market, Karoake etc etc.

From good to worse

The hotel has undergone renovations to make it presentable and cozy. The receptionist and bellboy courteous, friendly and polite as compared to similar hotels in Kota Kinabalu where I have stayed before. Although this was my 1st time to this hotel, I would say the staff are knowledgeable and willing to assist guests in whatever ways. The Wi-Fi connections is free and it works wonderfully....it might be slow at times.....but be patient....it will get you connected....that's what a lot of us needed today is serving the internet. Transportation is easily available and near to bus & taxi stand. On breakfast is normal and average as it comes with the room packages...it could be improved further with more varieties and choices of food. I stayed for 4 nites in room no: 1105 from 22/7 - 26/7/2017

Economical hotel with breakfast in KK

We stayed here one night, and it was by far the worst we had in Sabah. The lobby looks really beautiful, but the rooms are unimpressive. The first room we were put in reeked of cigarettes, the TV didn't work, the WiFi didn't work and there was no hot water for a shower. They moved us to a room where the TV and shower worked, but we still didn't have WiFi and the room still smelt. On the upside, the hotel is in a good location and the breakfast was fantastic!
