Although the rooms are on the average small, they were clean and rather comfortable. The front desk staff were friendly and helpful. Good central location as it is walking distance from the shopping mall, the esplanade and many seafood restaurants. The room comes with set breakfast (western or local). If you looking more food, there is a 24 hour KFC... More

Service and staff helpful and friendly, rooms small and very 3 star, but for the country it was ok. Location not bad, walk to shops and waterfront for restaurants like mai Yai which is fantastic for food and grog. Winner hotel tried to accomodate early breakers if going on tour or leaving.

Booked for this hotel for a night. But after check-in and went in the room. We were welcome with very unpleasant smell (maybe by the carpet) and the bath room is very dirty. It needs renovation and painting. Location is a bonus for this hotel and breakfast is provided.

The hotel is acceptable. Rooms are clean and staff are willing to help. A disadvantage was the size of rooms. Double rooms were very tiny, and toilets are really small. Free breakfast was served in a short period every morning. It is in the city centre of Kota Kinabalu, so the location is O.K. There was a shopping mall nearby.

My partner and I pre-booked a hotel room before our journey to Borneo started. The hotel is located centrally in Kota Kinabalu, that was one of the reasons we booked it. We did all sightseeing on foot. The room (superior room with 2 separate beds) was quite small, the bath room even smaller. However, amenities available (complimentary water, tea maker)... More

We (my parents and I) flew into KK late on 24 October 2012. Our pre-arranged transport was waiting for us at the airport & we got to Winner Hotel in good time.

Winner Hotel in KK was great - easy to walk anywhere in KK - clean and decent rooms - and pretty tasty brekkies (I can recommend the kaya toast!). Beds nice and firm - good hot showers. No complaints at all.

We stayed there because of the convenient location and value-for-money room with amenities such as complimentary drinking water, hair dryer, tea/coffee making facilities, etc. The hotel looks old from the outside but the interior is okay as the rooms have been refurbished before. The front desk staff were often helpful. The only bother was the housekeeping. One day, they did... More

I often ponder why I keep returning to this hotel. We come to KK for business almost every weekend and the service at the hotel doesn't seem to be very grateful for our custom. The wifi is dismal, rendering the reason for staying here near pointless. The rooms are okay, the street can be very noisy, though not the hotels... More
