“Fresh facelift but service still needs work”

Reviewed 21 May 2013 NEW

The hotel has been refurbished and that was a pleasant surprise as it was getting quite tired looking. The suite we stayed in was fresh and modern. The selection of breakfast at the club level lounge was a bit sad, but the view was nice. The coffee house service is very poor. The kitchen takes forever to produce anything even... More

“Great hotel overlooking river”

Reviewed 18 May 2013 NEW

This is a great hotel - make sure you get a room overlooking the river. Nice big pool as well. Walking distance to most sights in Kuching. Staff are very helpful. Great breakfast included with lots of choices. Would highly recommend this hotel.

“The bed is comfortable”

We stayed in a twin bed room, the super single bed is very comfortable and can fix up to two person. The washroom is clean and not smelly. The location is good, there are fast food, restaurant, book shop, lounge nearby the hotel. Worth to stay.

“As a holiday Inn this wa so good - what has gone wrong?”

Reviewed 29 April 2013

So sad , so bad , and no one cares. This hotel despite being one of the oldest in Kuching always had some thing that no other hotel could replicate. New name and now best to stay some where else. Any where is better. I have stayed here for 20 years plus and will never again. Staff changes are one... More

We arrived and were given a room on the 5th floor, overlooking a busy road. As we had chosen this hotel because it was on the river we asked to move. We were promptly given a room on 3rd floor. That night we went to bed early as we had an early start and were kept awake by the worst... More

Grand Margerita hotel is situated in the best central place - at waterfront. Esplanade along it is nice and safe for night stroll. BUT hotel is very old. It was renovated just partially. Public places like lobby, restaraunt, swimming pool, gym were renewed. But corridors and rooms are filthy, smelly and worn out. Carpets everywhere are really dirty. Breakfasts were... More

“Don't judge a guest by her crocs...”

Reviewed 8 April 2013 via mobile

Spent three nights here for a short anniversary trip. Had no time to plan and adventure off to some foreign land. So, why not checking in somewhere really close to home? (20 mins drive). The hotel is simple, nothing too fancy but essentially it feels very ethnic. Given it's location in Sarawak, the hotel embraces a lot of local identity... More

Reviewed 1 April 2013

I was pleasantly surprised with this hotel and was told it was newly renovated when I stayed. The rooms are clean, spacious and nicely decorated. The lobby was rather odd though, as it's not located at the main entrance and you will need to turn right and walk for about 50m to reach the main lobby. The only thing to... More
