The Pavilion Hotel

Pros are proximity to the airport, and available free shuttle to the airport as well. Otherwise an average 2 star hotel. Cons Breakfast is a buffet style with Rice, Noodles and Vegetables, and Chicken. Eggs are boiled but almost RAW. You can toast your own bread with butter and jelly. Coffee is ok. The rooms are not very clean. Ours was a Non-smoking on the 4th floor, but it smelled like cigarettes. There is Hot water in the shower. Only one half used roll of toilet paper was available. You get bath towels, but no face or hand towels are available. The neighborhood around stinks like sewer but you can find a few places to eat. Overall the place is convenient for an overnight stay before your flight.

During PKPP, breakfast was not provided but it was changed to lunch or dinner. The meals provided delicious. The hotel also free shuttle to airport.

When we arrived, having booked the hotel and paid for a non-smoking room, we were given not only a smoking room, but an INSIDE smoking room, meaning it had no windows! It stank! I travel a lot, and this was the first time I've ever immediately gone back to reception and demanded a different room! They quickly assigned us a different one, on a non-smoking floor. It was twice as big and didn't smell bad and it was clean, but it was just generally worn-out: the paint, the carpet, etc. The towels were threadbare. We realized that night and the next morning that very few people were staying there, so why did they try to palm us off with a sub-standard room? No idea. Anyway, I didn't give the worst rating for the hotel staff because the people in the restaurant were very friendly at dinner and breakfast.

Booked this because it was not too far from airport, and we were arriving fairly late in day. Peeling wallpaper in room. Impossible to shower without collecting water around tub. On check in, we were told we could get room service or eat at restaurant till 10pm. Called room service around 730, was told not available. Went to restaurant, only a scant 5 item buffet available, had to go down the street to get a meal. The area is a bit sketchy, but found good food.

Just an average stay. Good enough for traveler on tight budget. Cleanliness and room conditions not up to my expectation.

Stayed for one night on the way to Kinabatangan river trip: the place is dingy and in need of renovation. It loks dirty, even though it is not; bed sheets do not look clean; the walls are thin and you can hear every word of discussion next door; I could not relax there and could not sleep. Breakfast was very good though. Also, complimentary shuttle from the airport. Very helpful and pleasant staff. However, I would not stay there again, even for one night.

Place was great and right next to the airport. The staff was helpful but got our shuttle to the airport late even though we told them 3 times to have it ready at a certain time and it came in with 10 min delay. The wifi was also a bit faulty. Overall, I would recommend if you want to be close to the airport for an early flight. Great restaurants next door too.

Great hotel and they offered a free shuttle service to local attractions and supermarket. There is also a free shuttle to the airport. And also a massage service in the lobby. Free bottled water too!

Very good value for money. Close to airport and lots of local places to eat nearby

Near to the airport. Plenty of restaurants around (walking distance). Easy to get grabcar. Highly recommended. Will stay here again.
