We spent 6 nights at the Last Frontier Boutique Resort and enjoyed every second. The opportunities to view wildlife are truly amazing, both at the hotel and nearby (at one point we even had a visit from an orangutan with her baby and juvenile). The hotel is very comfortable; the staff are all exceptionally accommodating; and Jason's cooking is reason to visit in itself! Very close to the Kinabatangan river, right in the heart of Sabah, the Last Frontier Boutique Resort should be on everyone's list. We will definitely be back.

It was very well maintained even though it was an older hotel compared to other nearby hotels. Facilities wise, nothing over the top. Same as other hotel.. location was quite good, walking distance to Filipino Market, Suria Sabah n the daily night market. We were having our simple wedding anniversary getaway.. n the staff made the room a little extra special with the specially folded towels that were shaped like swans.. Oh.. I left some tips for housekeeping but they didn't take it.. thats a really nice suprise😅

This was just a stop over on the way to Sabah so we only stayed one night but the hospitality we were greeted with was exceptional and the breakfast buffet in the morning was absolutely delicious. It was really nice to be looking out over the Hard Rock Cafe as well and the dinner here was excellent also. We had a room with a view of the ocean which was also amazing for such an affordable hotel. We had a wonderful stay and thank you to all the staff for their wonderful hospitality. We hope to return again one day :)

The hotel location is in the heart of Kota Kinabalu ,and near take about 15mins to some destination such as Fillipino market, Tanjung Aru Beach, Sabah State Museum and Pu Toh Temple. A chinese seafood restaurant is just across the road, of course nearby also available many foods and grocery store. Staff are attentive and helpfulness about all questions. They have room service daily and refill water everyday, i am quite suprised and happy to have these services which i never been get in other country.

For singaporean reading..this hotel location remind me of our East Coast park hawker Center area. Like Katong park area hotel before the East Coast highway construction.Sabah food and people is similar to us Private but when approach , like us, they are kind.Tawau is a bit Batam style minus the bars. Very quiet in the evening due to early sunrise and sunset. For Muslim family travel without five star in mind . It’s a good getaway.

Staff always replied promptly, which was very helpful. It’s indeed a very good location next to Jesselton Point that we could just go island hopping anytime. The place is also easily accessible to Sabah Tourism Board, Gaya Street, Suria Shopping Mall and many others. The whole apartment was clean with amazing views, and having a washing machine in it was the best thing ever for us! Basically everything needed was provided.

The staff was/is extremely friendly and helpful as someone already mentioned 12 out of 10 in the ranking. Bobot our guide needs a special mentioning, very knowledgeable about the animals, and a fun person to be with. The driver to got us to the Lodge SAHA, already explained a lot about Sabah and the Lodge, very helpful. It should be mentioned, you are in a Lodge in the middle of nowhere, don't expect.a 5star Hotel

The location is good in terms of exploring Sandakan. The main area of restaurants and night markets is a 5 - 10 minute walk away. However, there is not that much to do in Sandakan, and the main attractions of Sabah are not in walking distance of Sandakan. It was a 30 minute drive from the hotel to the Sepilok Orangutan Rehabilitation Centre. It is a very basic and fairly clean hotel but you get what you pay for.

This is an absolute little gem of a place. Super-friendly, accommodating & attentive hosts, large comfortable rooms and excellent food. Felt very welcome and at home the minute we arrived. Breakfast was tasty and beautifully presented, but we were even more impressed by the evening meal (available by prior arrangement) - exquisite Malaysian cuisine and easily the best meal we had during our 18days in Sabah.

Extremely near to Syria Sabah, food is readily available. Walking distance to many attractions in the city. Friendly staff, helpful in getting day tour for me. Bellman is always sorta looking out for guests who stay there, so it's nice knowing someone is keeping an eye on guests'safety. Hotel supports sustainable living, so I love the concept of not changing towels everyday etc..

I can see team work. I can see how the meticulous works are done in the management,makes Shangrila outstanding. Coming from Sarawak, I applause the hotel for keeping the Sabahan vibes for the visitors by playing the traditional instruments/wearing traditional costumes at the main entrance. The staffs were very pleasant and doing their parts well too. Well done to all!

Location - perfect! It is in between both Imago Shopping Mall and Suria Sabah. The Sinsuran market is directly in front of the hotel. Room was spacious easy to move around. Bed big enough for the three of us. Love, love the breakfast! Variety of food options from western to asian. Staff have been very hospitable and friendly. Complimentary parking for residents is a bonus!!

The hotel location is very convenient for us, it basically surrounded by all the fast food restaurants and only few minutes walk to Suria Sabah and Wisma Merdeka. Inside room were a bit small compared to what we expected but it still comfortable to sleep in for a night, suitable for solo traveller ! Staff also very good! Recommended !

The location was great. Right in front of Suria Sabah mall, walking distance to Gaya night market. Definitely a worthy stay. The hotel interior was spectacular, the smell (diffuser) was pleasant and the best are the hotel staff; they were so friendly and helpful!

Great hostel in the centre of sandakan , large room (twin room ) , comfy beds , the hostel is kept very clean in all areas . Staff were also friendly , along with the residents of sandakan . This is one of the friendliest places we have visited in sabah .

We booked last minute and the only room available for our stay was an executive suite. It was a nice spacious room which was great but expensive for Sabah and the facilities/service. The pool was great though and was what made it tbh.

The location is great. The Gaya Street night market was within easy walking distance of the hotel, which was very very convenient for us. Other nearby places includes Suria Sabah, Jesselton Point Jetty and Philippines Market.

The amenities - electric gas, toaster, microwave, rice e, shampoo & gel bath shower The location - next to Jesselton ferry terminal, Suria Sabah Mall, Jesselton Mall, SICC etc The view from the apartment - seaview 😍

I love everything about the hotel, especially the location. Really easy for us to find foods and shopping mall. Just next to Centre Point Sabah. Wow, definitely gonna repeat here. Thank you! 😎

Everything you want a hostel to be. It's clean, comfortable, has a nice social area and the staff is super nice and helpful and always willing to help you plan your way around Sabah.
