Sandakan Bar Hotel

"the room was dirty, couldn't see out of the windows for dirt and the surfaces were covered in dust. Panels were falling off the lift and the carpets were badly worn. It looked like the place was in the midst of a large restoration so things might improve. It's in a good location close to the waterfront and there is a very good restaurant on the top floor. Staff were very helpful. Might be worth looking at in six months time but certainly not at the moment"

"The staff was very nice but it's in an inconvenient area, the room had a lot of bugs and the amenities like the WiFi, AC and refrigerator did not work very well"

"Night time no hot water, air cond not cool.....toilet not clean... "

"They called you at 2am just to get back the iron and the board. The iron board that they provide was was also broken."

"The hotel is in a great location to visit the Orang Utans and Sun Bears. Its a relaxed hotel and the staff are really friendly. The room was spacious and comfortable. The shower was great! Negatives - wifi is hit and miss so card payments not always possible. No ATM nearby but we changed cash at a nearby hotel.

"No lift"

"Only that some chalets were quite a long walk uphill to get to them so you needed to be fit but otherwise a lovely place to stay and staff so helpful and couldn’t do enough for you "

"We only had a one night stay as a stop over, the hotel is clean and convenient for what we wanted. It’s an old hotel with some nice old features. Rooms were nice and big and comfortable. A good breakfast was included in the price. "
